I don't understand the hate over this movie!
16 August 2020
It actually felt quite authentic for the most part. I had to skip some bits that were too savage and bloody, but even that felt reasonable compared to what little I know of the mob or gangs. I thoroughly enjoyed the Mexican perspective and customs (his niece's quinceanera preparation) I'd like to see more of that in movies. We Americans will get too stale with just our own culture fed back to us in movies, it's refreshing to see how other families celebrate and the things that matter to them. The mom's comment about seeing the Mexican Kardashians at the dress store was HILARIOUS.

Certainly this is a woman's opinion and this is more of a guy's genre movie, but some guys might have girlfriends or wives and they might enjoy watching it with them.

Shia's best role in a long time!
