Metacritic reviews

The result is a film of startling insight and grace.

Pitch-perfect social comedy.

What Live-in Maid offers is a pitch-perfect observation of life on a continent where forms are adhered to, distances aren't really kept, and your best friend is the person who knows to pour the cheap domestic whiskey into the empty bottle of imported stuff before your bridge buddies show up to judge you.

Powered by two first-rate performances, Jorge Gaggero's debut feature is full of psychological nuance and keen social observation.

Modest in scope, but it feels complete, fully inhabited, in a way that more overtly ambitious movies rarely do.

Weary and overworked to her very bones, Dora nevertheless has a heart of gold and a spine of steel. The movie does, too.

Low-key yet has a lot to say about class struggle.

A fairly successful attempt at satire, though given the subject, there's a lot of darkness under the carpet.

A fine Argentinean film with English subtitles.

Live-In Maid's premise would be ideal for a play, or a bravura performance piece like Rainer Werner Fassbinder's "The Bitter Tears Of Petra Von Kant."
