Critic Reviews

Achy Obejas

This is an all-Latino film--a rarity and a pleasure--but what's most curious and refreshing is that Cordero allows the Latinos to naturally embrace their nationalities, accents and cultural peculiarities. Read full review

Kirk Honeycutt

A crackling good suspense thriller. Read full review

David Sterritt

The film begins strongly and violently, then simmers down to a standard-issue suspense story. Read full review

Kevin Thomas

The result is reasonably absorbing and a provocative if familiar commentary on media manipulation, with Leguizamo terrific in a serious, intense performance. Read full review

Jeremy Mathews

Sometimes goes a bit over the top to make its point. Read full review

TV Guide Magazine Maitland McDonagh

What distinguishes Cordero's film is his use of location. Read full review

Kyle Smith
