Victims of Sin Ratings & Reviews
Artforum
J. Hoberman
A tumultuous product of Mexican cinema's Golden Age, the movie is a perfect storm, the confluence of three huge talents.
New York Times
Nicolas Rapold
Goes full throttle with an engrossing redemption melodrama about a nightclub dancer who raises an abandoned baby.
48 Hills
Dennis Harvey
Seville flourished for a time in just this kind of hothouse soap opera, and Victimas del pecado is arguably her finest hour.
KDHX (St. Louis)
Diane Carson
Sevilla's extraordinary energy and flair enliven the cultural collisions of middle class versus working class, exploitation amidst modernization.
Combustible Celluloid
Jeffrey M. Anderson
This irresistible Mexican film, newly restored, takes place in the world of seedy nightclubs, arrogant crime lords, hot music, and beautiful women.
Slant Magazine
Derek Smith
As one of the quintessential cabaretera films from the golden age of Mexican cinema, Victims of Sin moves at the quickening pace of the Afro-Cuban rumba dances we witness throughout.
Battleship Pretension
Scott Nye
The noir elements come late in the film and worth discovering for yourself, but the way the film ties a violent threat to a paternal figure is very key to the feminist underpinnings at work in it.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
One of the great noir melodramas.
PopMatters
Michael Barrett
In Emilio Fernández's Victims of Sin, a galaxy of important Mexican film and music artists collaborate on a tale of mambo music, martyred mothers, and melodrama.
Washington City Paper
Pat Padua
How can a movie be both so brutal and so musical?
Spectrum Culture
David Harris
Victims of Sin is a moody, gritty and poetic musical melodrama full of violence, eroticism and a potboiler plot featuring prostitutes, pimps and gangsters - but it still gives its heroine a way to face the future.
