Critics Consensus: A man can be destroyed but not defeated, although the desultory Papa: Hemingway in Cuba makes one feel as if both can be accomplished by watching a single film.

David Walsh

If the viewer were to base him- or herself on the Hemingway represented in Yari's Papa ... he or she would likely never open a single volume of Hemingway's writing.

We never get a sense of what we're supposed to gain here.

The actors do their best, but the plodding, unimaginative direction reduces the film to a dull docu-drama,
