Carlos Oré Arroyo from Infobae highlighted the participation of actors such as Gustavo Bueno and Reynaldo Arenas, but criticized the film's weak script and resolution.[4] Andro Mairata from La República stated: "Schuldt makes A Giant Adventure a pedagogical product, with the clear intention that children appreciate Nazca culture. Motivation is good, but then we have phrases and rhetoric worthy of a classroom, not a movie story."[12]
