Our Fault (Culpa Nuestra) Review
Let’s get one thing straight: Culpa Nuestra (Our Fault), the third and final installment in the Culpables trilogy, is exactly what fans have been waiting for—high-stakes drama, steamy romance, and all the unresolved emotional tension you’d expect when you’re watching a couple trying to make love work against every possible obstacle.
For those not caught up: the trilogy—based on Mercedes Ron’s wildly popular Wattpad novels—follows Noah and Nick, two step-siblings-turned-lovers who have navigated a complicated (and yeah, pretty forbidden) relationship across Culpa Mía (My Fault) and Culpa Tuya (Your Fault). If you’ve come this far, you already know this saga is more about heart and heat than logic and realism—and honestly, that’s kind of the point.
So, what’s the vibe this time?
Culpa Nuestra turns the dial all the way up. The emotional stakes are higher, the chemistry is still very much alive (seriously, Nicole Wallace and Gabriel Guevara do not phone it in), and the drama? Still messy in the best way. There are car chases, secret pasts, career dreams, betrayals, and a few gut-punch moments that feel genuinely earned. But at the center of it all is the question: Can love really survive when everything around it is falling apart?
Noah is finally stepping into her own, trying to build her future and make decisions that don’t revolve around Nick. And Nick? Well, he’s still carrying that broody, bad-boy energy that somehow makes teenage rebellion look poetic. But this time, we see more vulnerability from him—more cracks in that cool exterior—which adds a bit of emotional depth the series has occasionally lacked.
Is it perfect? No. But is it fun? Absolutely.
Sure, Culpa Nuestra has its flaws. The pacing can be erratic, and some plot twists feel straight out of a telenovela fever dream. But it knows exactly what kind of movie it is—and it doesn’t pretend to be anything else. If you’re here for realism and nuanced commentary on teen dynamics, maybe this isn’t your cup of tea. But if you’re here for emotional chaos, slow-motion kisses, and a relationship that’s one part toxic and two parts irresistible? You’re in for a ride.
Visually, it’s slick. The production quality has clearly stepped up since the first film. There’s a cinematic polish now—especially in the nighttime scenes and those intimate close-ups that make every whispered confession feel like a thunderclap.
Final Thoughts:
Culpa Nuestra is a messy, passionate, slightly unhinged ride that sticks the landing—for the fans, at least. It’s not trying to reinvent the wheel, but it does deliver on what it promised from the start: an all-consuming, against-the-odds romance that leaves you wondering what would happen if you ever ran into your forbidden love in the hallway again.
So grab some popcorn, maybe a glass of wine, and lean all the way into the drama. Because whether you love it, hate it, or watch it with one eye rolling, Our Fault knows how to keep you watching.
Rating: 3.5/5 — Guilty pleasure, fully embraced.
