Community Reviews

Viewers find 'On the Fringe' a gripping social drama that effectively captures the urgency and despair of those fighting against evictions in Spain. The performances, especially by Luis Tosar, are highly praised for their realism and emotional depth. However, some felt the film occasionally lapses into melodrama, particularly towards the end, and Penélope Cruz's role was seen as somewhat underwhelming by a few.

👍 Luis Tosar's performance is a standout.

👎 Ending may feel overly melodramatic.
