Volver (2006) – 8.9/10

Almodovar proves once more, if ever at all it had to be proved, his immense talent as a film-maker. With Volver, he gifts us a masterpiece, gathering his fetish actresses into a dramatic plot revolving around themes of incest, maternal love and of that feminine bond that unites women all. Volver is an ode to women, a reverence to their strength and their feelings. It is a tale screened with simplicity, with love, with passion, in a way that only Almodovar can.

Volver is a movie that cannot be reviewed for words would fail to reveal the true essence of it, for it undoubtedly is a ‘must-see’ movie. Bravo Pedro!
