	Media	Author	Review
		Peter Debruge Variety	"'The Lost City' won’t be nominated for any Oscars, but it repeats what Spielberg and Lucas did for 'Raiders of the Lost Ark,' mining a century-old genre for inspiration and polishing those tropes for a new generation"
		Brian Truitt USA Today	"'The Lost City' isn't a bad movie, and it's sufficiently ridiculous for those seeking a gonzo escape with A-listers (…) Puntuación: ★★½ (sobre 4)"
		Martin Tsai The Wrap	"Unfortunately, 'The Lost City' never manages to recover once Pitt’s rousing cameo is over. While pleasant, “The Lost City” is unlikely to satisfy those thirsting for action and adventure."
		Marya E. Gates The Playlist	"Overstuffed at times, ultimately, 'The Lost City' is a fun ride and a loving throwback to a certain kind of star-laden character-led adventure films Hollywood doesn’t seem to have time for anymore"
		Peter Travers ABC News	"'The Lost City' reminds us of the lost pleasures of big-screen escapism, the kind that slaps a smile on your face that lasts all the way home"
		Valerie Complex Deadline	"The directors' work isn't remarkable in any way. Bullock and Tatum are the glue that holds this film together and are infinitely more interesting than what’s happening around them"
		Abby Olcese rogerebert.com	"Adam and Aaron Nee understand exactly what their audience wants (...) This is a movie you watch in the theater, with popcorn, then again and again on streaming, with a glass of wine (...) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 4)"
		John DeFore The Hollywood Reporter	"It’s a thoroughly commercial film (...) Even with an unnecessary subplot or two, the film feels reasonably brisk for its nearly two-hour running time"
		Johnny Oleksinski New York Post	"The dumb movie joins the discouraging trend of demeaning a once-great genre with nauseating humor, no thrills or grandeur and an over-reliance on star power (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 4)"
		Leah Greenblatt Entertainment Weekly	"Nothing would really hang together without its main pair (...) Their rapport feels both meticulously market-tested and somehow gratifyingly natural, and strong enough too to withstand a careening, unabashedly cartoonish plot"
		Robert Daniels IndieWire	"The obvious chemistry between Tatum and Bullock saves the day (...) 'The Lost City' might not be as majestic or breathtaking as its loftier influences, but it is the swooning stuff that great romance novels are made of."
		Sarah Jane Austin Chronicle	"A film you can escape your troubles with for a couple of hours. Award-winning? Nope, but it is fun"
		Justin Chang Los Angeles Times	"Sandra Bullock and Channing Tatum go enjoyably neo-screwball in 'The Lost City' (...) The poster made it look kind of fun, and lo and behold, it is"
		Derek Smith Slant	"It's clear that 'The Lost City' is Bullock and Tatum's show, but its tokenistic moves are further proof that star power and chemistry can only take a film with a mediocre script so far (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 4)"
		Conor O'Donnell The Film Stage	"The easy-breeziness of it all anchors this whole film's appeal (...) The most wondrous thing about 'The Lost City' is that it even exists"
		David Fear Rolling Stone	"The movie itself is trying to excavate a long-lost genre: the big-budget action-adventure movie-star rom-com (...) You can almost see the flop-sweat dripping down the screen"
		Hoai-Tran Bui SlashFilm	"There's a goofy sincerity to the movie, and it retains that old Hollywood screwball spirit that gives it a timeless feeling. It's nothing new, and lord knows it's nothing groundbreaking, but boy, is it fun"
		Jordan Hoffman AV Club	"Anyone who watches this motion picture and says they truly disliked it is probably telling a fib"
		Siddhant Adlakha IGN	"'The Lost City' is bland and messy whenever Sandra Bullock and Channing Tatum aren't on screen. Thankfully, their comedic banter is front and center for most of the film"
		Peter Bradshaw The Guardian	"This is all amiable enough, with the all-important dimension of laughs: Tatum and Bullock showing that they are smart enough to know how silly it is, and that they know that we know that they know (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"
		Mae Abdulbaki Screen Rant	"With the effortlessly charming and talented cast, [it] makes for a highly entertaining, joyful adventure (...) A fun film. It's engaging and full of humor that never feels forced for the sake of it (…) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 5)"
