I could only get about 3 minutes into this video. Most of the reason for this is because it is, in fact, a video and not a film. This is an important distinguishing feature, because the use of a video camera here has made the piece look amateurish despite some decent camera work and far above average editing. Everything is there to make this a mediocre film... except the film. A better camera and an actual professional sound crew would have made this video something worthy of the video rental vending machine I got it from. Unless you are a film student and want to view this from the point of view of a director/ editor, then I strongly recommend that you avoid spending any money on this at all.

If someone would have spent the extra few grand on putting this movie on film instead of video, I think the impression of this movie would be better. The music tracks were not always appropriate for the scenes and both the acting and editing could have been even marginally improved for a much greater return on the movie's overall quality. I would say that it is not even remotely good as it stands, but such little things could have taken it so much closer to being acceptable. I think the fact that it has to do with Mexico just reminds me all that much more of Spanish day-time TV. Oh, and they also filmed it like a bad soap opera, most of the time without even a tripod.
