What would you do if one day you open the door of your house and a man you've never seen hits you, ties you to a chair, pulls out a bottle of tequila and start counting you his life? In addition, little by little, you start to realize that this seemingly odd man knows everything about you and his main intent is to give you a shot in the head. Based on true events, this is what happens to Michael, an attorney/deputy happily married to a privileged life who in less than an hour starts to lose everything. Perhaps this stranger comes to present him something that everybody wants to have: Power. "Behind the Power" is a thriller that will make you question your country, your life and your heart.
Reviews
This movie is one of the worst Mexican movies from the new 'golden age' of movie-making. its slow, it confusing, it jumps back and forth in the present and past. story is just one simple line, with no depth. actors are doing a stellar job at bad acting. Cinematography is shaky, camera moves in a annoying repetitive sense, as if the cameraman had parkinsons. Definitely a low budget, low expectations, forgettable movie.violence, corruption, betrayal, all values of the Mexican political class, make their way to the script of the movie.A waist of time, in my opinion.
