There Are No Saints, aka The Jesuit, is yet another “not for me” sort of film. How come? After all, it is revenge fare. We open as bad boy, Neto Niente (José María Yazpik), is released from prison when it turns out he was fitted up for the crime he’s been inside for.
He emerges to a less than enthusiastic response from his estranged wife, Nadia (Paz Vega), and a hero’s welcome from teenage son, Julio (Keidrich Sellati). Also, to an ambush and police brutality from the local cops, who, in the great tradition of US film police everywhere, reckon he can’t possibly be innocent. Therefore, the sensible thing to do is follow him around and hassle him at every turn, on the basis that sooner or later he will revert to type and they can bang him up again.
Unfortunately for Neto – and Nadia – the latter has fallen foul.
