Missing Young Woman Ratings & Reviews
Deseret News (Salt Lake City)
Jeff Vice
The victims of the crimes described in Senorita Extraviada cry out for justice. Just as their stories cry out for a more-focused, less superficial documentary than this one.
Salt Lake Tribune
Sean P. Means
Portillo makes a powerful indictment -- though without the evidence to get a conviction -- against the powers that be.
Arizona Republic
Randy Cordova
There's obviously a stark, chilling story here, but Portillo is a sloppy moviemaker.
Boston Globe
Janice Page
An important film, worthy of the Special Jury Prize it won at last year's Sundance Film Festival.
San Diego Union-Tribune
David Elliott
[A] film of appalling facts.
L.A. Weekly
Holly Willis
The film is shocking, and, for better or worse, Portillo's refusal to offer solace kindles a potent rage that's not easily forgotten.
Los Angeles Times
Kevin Thomas
Lourdes Portillo's elegiac Seorita Extraviada documents with low-key persistence the conditions in Ciudad Jurez that make some say, 'There is no better place in the world to kill a young woman.'
Los Angeles Daily News
Bob Strauss
The tragedy, unfairness and sheer repulsive indignity of the situation speak, in ghastly sorrow, all for themselves.
Film Threat
Ron Wells
Look, I know this documentary isn't easy to watch. It will make you angry. That's good; it should make you angry.
San Diego Metropolitan
Jean Lowerison
One can only hope that Portillo's film has served as catalyst, and now something will be done.
