    Avoidable

    An action movie with a bit of suspense and drama.

    It is about a hit man who is hired by a mobster to kill someone and after closing the deal he is wanted because a girl runs away with him.

    Quality.

    Parsimonious.

    The problem is that the film takes off very well but then it gets lost in ideas and in the end it no longer makes any sense.

    Even the original plot ends quickly and they put other subplots to fill in the time.

    Some scenes that are intended to be suspenseful are too long.

    The few action scenes are passable.

    Some performances are good and some are not so good.

    Unnecessary sexual scenes.

    He does not speak of anything.

    Avoidable.

    Main casts are gorgeous

    The script is not very well done. Some of the acting are too cheesy. The best part of the movie is the main casts are gorgeous.

    Perfect balance of action and sensuality...

    You simply must see this great Mexican gangster story with an attractive, compelling cast that kept me in my seat throughout this action movie on Friday Dec 6. Leading Lady Alicia "The Body" Sanz is so wonderfully at home in the altogether (both in the shower and while being strip-searched for a tracking device) that her scenes could exist separately and still be a box office hit !!! 8 out of 10 for the movie... 10 out of 10 for Miss Sanz. Highly Recommended!

    Passion and action

    In as actually wanted to see the movie because I'm a big William Levy fan and a romance sucker. So I loved the idea of the storyline. It being in Spanish made it that much more awesome. William and Alicia played great chemistry between their characters even not long after they met each other in character you can see the chemistry "Victor" and "Sarai" gave off each other without words. And I felt the action was there in the movie. I'm hoping they continue the book series into movies.

    Suspenseful acton with a little romance thrown in!

    Not having read the book, I didn't know what to expect from the movie. It was a pleasant surprise to see William Levy take on a co-producing role, while acting as the lead, too. I have been following his work for a while and am happy to see him foray into production. For those of us who watched him in other work we know that there is an allure to him due to his sex appeal. He has been typecast as the latin hottie. It can be difficult to get roles when you look like him. However, although there is intimacy in this movie, I can see that there was a push for him to venture into more of an action role. There is room for improvement both in the acting and production. There are some unexpected twists and thought this was an enjoyable Spanish language film. I would love to see a second movie follow this one.
