Laid back approach to exciting drama that gets where it's going to very slowly and quietly. For the most part though the director keeps us distant from the characters and the action. Unfortunately this limits our involvement.

I really hope this film gets a theatrical US release, at least in some limited theaters. I think it's a pretty effective character piece, even if much of it is driven by its plot and circumstances. It succeeds in its ability to make us empathize with its characters and humanize them even when not forgiving their flaws. There are many films of this type, but this is just another one that cleverly walks a fine line between being a crime tragedy and also exposing the horrors that come with people involved n this kind of business. It's effective, and definitely recommended in terms of what cinema fans may want to see. Definitely seek this one out, do yourself a favor.

First of all, the sound quality was awful and by sound quality I mean diction. The Spanish was so bad that it barely qualifies as that language. I just didn't feel like trying to understand every word of some ignorant street urchin and I doubt any Spanish speaker outside of northern Mexico could understand much of what the kid was saying. His English was worse and although this may be realistic it doesn't really play well in a film in which dialogue is so important. Diction classes would have been a wise pre-shooting decision.There just isn't enough here for a movie. I liked the look into America's ultra-creepy gun culture and this is something we really need to examine more thoroughly. The fact that a teenager can walk into a gun show and walk out with enough fire power for a small war is nothing but creepy. The people buying these weapons in Mexico are thoroughly evil and the narcos' death cult is probably second only to ISIS on the list of ghoulish human activities.In the end not much of a script and with very little to say.

I went to see this movie thinking it would be a look at the Gun Wars and Mexican Cartels.Your movie is anti-gun propaganda. You had the young guy buying guns filling out an ATF Form 4473 and then the Dealer not doing a NCIC Instant Background Check. No Dealer sells guns illegally like that. In real life the young kid making the "Straw Purchases" would have been flagged and intercepted early on by the ATF as the instant background checks were run. That aside your ending totally sucked. What were you thinking dropping the guy off in the desert and then going to a kitchen scene with audio still playing during the credits. Total ripoff experience
