I really liked this movie. It reflected a lot of the Hispanic culture and Aztec traditions. The movie revolves around the day of the dead. While the artists make up and effects were not the greatest, the plot totally made up for this and was very original. It is one of those stories that you are drawn into, and you are not sure why. This movie moves a little slow at times, but I thought it was necessary for the story to unfold. The director did a great job with the flow and telling of the story. It makes some interesting statements about love, death,and dying. If you are looking for the high budget thriller than this is not it. But if you are looking for a good plot with great symbolism, and a wonderful original plot then this is movie is worth watching... I am sure that I will watch this movie again. I really enjoyed the who movie from the story, to the acting, to the directing. While it was a movie, it almost made me feel like I was in a theater watching something like the Phantom Of The Opera. This movie definitely has class.
