No real actors here but then the direction is so 'who gives a damn' that it's hard to tell who may really be talented. The cast is attractive but all those musical numbers don't help at all. I see there is a sequel but I don't know if I'm going to hunt that down. Curiosity got me to try this out. The action is just too amateurish. I will say that the actors playing son and father have a bit of charisma and that might make me interested in seeing the conclusion of this little sad fable. No Robert Rodriguez potential at all here. There seems to be a niche market for these types of stories because I've seen other DVD's with similar themes.

Low budget narcos
TheMexFilm25 April 2024
Warning: Spoilers
It is a film that has average performances and terrible actors, giving us the impression that the budget was too low and we realize that the director did not worry about the smallest details of it.
It is the typical story of betrayal and revenge, where many of the protagonists find themselves involved in drug trafficking stories and some are betrayed by the police and members of the law.
I think that in certain scenes the acting is exaggerated, in others it is very bad and I think that the drama scenes look forced or fake, giving us the impression that some shots are out of place or that the director didn't care at all.
In terms of acting, I think Fernando Saenz and John Solis are the ones that stand out the most in the casting, because they are charismatic and know how to perform their roles quite well.
The movie is simply entertaining and boring at certain times.
