Wonderfully offbeat film!
... View MoreOne of the worst movies I've ever seen
... View MoreI like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.
... View MoreThere are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
... View MoreI saw a cut of this film back in February in order to cut a trailer for American audiences. I must say that I was not impressed after viewing it. The film started off interesting and silly, but as the plot unfolded it really had no where to go. Actor Diego Luna has done some fine work in his previous films, but he phoned this performance in.Also, film makers felt that they should use a Guy Richie style of editing in order to spice the film up and give it some edge, but all that did was make the film look contrived. Right now they are trying to market this film like it's Amores Perros, but this film is absolutely nothing like it, wait till video to see this film.
... View MoreI like this movie. Besides of the great cast, great actors and performance, the story is very nice. There are not many dark-humor movies made in mexico.Very well done. Good budget, i guess.The story reminds me of movies like "Snatch" (2000) or "Pulp Fiction" (1994), and we don't get stories like that very often in our mexican movies.An easy, viewer-frendly, "im-gonna-have-a-good-time-for-a-couple-of-hours" type of movie.
... View MoreAfter later mexican movies like Corazón de Melón, Sin ton ni Sonia, etc., this one seemed to me as an improvement. I know it may not be the kind of Amores Perros art movie, but to me, the script was way smarter, comparing with recent work. I had laughed at those earlier movies, but because of I thought that was a joke. The thing sort of, how could they having that money make a movie like that? This time, though, I dare to say, this is not the case. And also, this may not be the kind of action like Bad Boys II. But you don't see exaggerated stuff here, but rather accurate comments, or at least, not stupid scripts. I give it 7/10
... View MoreI went to watch this movie because my girlfriend is a fan of Diego Luna. However, i just didnt get excited at any minute of the movie. Its the story of a young hacker in mexico city who steals passwords from swiss banks accounts, and tries to sell them to the russian mob. The story is kind of boring, and the humor is average at best. My recommendation is: dont spend any money watching this in the movies....MAYBE it will be worth the rental price in a few months from now. 2 1/2 out of 5 stars...
