[3] Santiago Racaj worked as cinematographer, whereas Javier Lafuente took over production duties.

[7] Jonathan Holland of The Hollywood Reporter underscored the film to be "self-indulgent but sharp-eyed", Trueba's most intimate film yet, displaying "sincerity" and "evident love of cinema", yet being "less lively, less fun (and funny)" than prior Trueba's pictures and wondered that it be fun to see Trueba to try to work beyond his Rohmerian comfort zone.

[2] Quim Casas of El Periódico de Catalunya scored 4 out of 5 stars, deeming The Reconquest to be "an excellent film about the passage of time and its consequences".

[9] Pere Vall of Fotogramas gave it 4 out of 5 stars, praising the "beautiful" planning of the swing dance scene.
