	Media	Author	Review
		Andy Webster The New York Times	"'Our Last Tango' is a combination of things, all fascinating (...) The love [Nieves and Copes] and the youthful performers have for the tango endures."
		Diego Semerene Slant	"Throughout German Kral’s documentary, the question of truth is equated to the essence of the tango (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)"
		Noel Murray Los Angeles Times	"A passionate look at dancers María Nieves and Juan Carlos Copes (...) It's beautifully choreographed"
		John DeFore The Hollywood Reporter	"Far more engrossing than the usual doc of this sort (...) The film knows that much of tango's hold over spectators lies in what is withheld."
		Tina Hassannia rogerebert.com	"'Our Last Tango' loses a key opportunity to engage audiences who don't know much about tango (...) The film loses momentum and becomes a kind of soap-opera-through-flashback."
		Andrea Gronvall Chicago Reader	"Its strongest moments are the dramatic reenactments: inventively choreographed and erotically charged dance sequences."
