Piloto

The colombian/american flick called piloto, or aviator in english, is a low budget, but nevertheless a pretty good and exciting film about drugs, politics, corruption,trafficking,international relations, illness and death..

the technical production are on average, what i liked best was the scenic views that builds the intermissions in the plot, beautifully done. the actors are very much related to the spanish way of making and acting movies, aka the man is the boss!!! i liked the cartell boss, a real thug that reminded me of ''el toro'' in an animation from disney studios in the late 1930's. the female lead is what i define as a+ beauty, and you should have a view and see what i mean.

the story are plain, and not always so well formulated, and there are some holes to fill, eg. where did he land the plane? was he connected to the dea??? also a lot of political conflicts that many people may never have heard about e.g venezuelan / colombian relations, chaves, and sabrefighting on the border and connections to the FARC-guerillia. so some history ive learned, and a reminder to put your passport were its safe, so next time i go to cartagena , colombia i will carry it between my buttocks.

its a low graded thriller , but the grumpy old man found it invasive, and interresting enough to hang on till the end.recommended
