The Last Stop in Yuma County

In addition to obtaining outstanding performances from all his actors, the director demonstrates that he has extensive knowledge of the cinematographic language, and uses it to immerse us in its simple but ingenious story. [Full review in Spanish]

A quirky, indie Neo-noir Western with a dash of Coen Brothers and a sprinkle of Tarantino. Darkly funny, well acted, and cleverly written.

"Last Stop in Yuma County" is the kind of movie where you root for the worst to happen, because every escalation of misfortune makes things more entertaining.

It’s a lean, tight, and stylishly clever B-movie about a bank robbery gone wrong.

This is one promising debut, but the reality is that it’s a far greater feat of directing than screenwriting, for which Galluppi has the sole credit as well.

A tense, fatalistic saga of bad luck and worse decisions, it’s a throwback that feels as fresh and alive as its predecessors did decades ago. Not to be missed, it stands as one of the most welcome surprises of this moviegoing year.

Taut, gripping, funny, black-as-spades thrillers like this don’t come along too often.

Francis Galluppi's direction is calculated, precise, and, above all, aware of its limitations, which makes it even more powerful. [Full review in Spanish]

Like its marooned characters, the film runs a bit low on fuel towards the end, but by that point plenty of fun has been had.
