Best Argentinian Movie Ever?, 25 March 2007
10/10
Author: Gono Maniax from Argentina

I think I've become a movie-watcher with this film. It's a very-rare independent film, made with just US$500.000 at that time, but still does his duty. Not a movie, I call it "A real documentary of Argentinian life". This is the real Argentina, the one not everybody see. The acting and the lines are so well done, that they will take you right there with "El Cordobés" and his pregnant girlfriend "Sandra" in Buenos Aires downtown. "El Cordobés", "Pablo", "Frula" and "Megabom" will do anything to survive in this big and dangerous city. Robbing, stealing, shooting and hitting people (they don't care who you are or who you were) there's no rules, no fear, no love and no hope for them.

DVD was just released in Argentina (12-2006). It doesn't have any interesting additional material but it's pretty good to see it in high quality. (It has English subtitles, for worldwide watchers!)

Just to say a few last words, the film it's very haunting, also a little disturbing and really dynamic.

Best Argentinian movie ever? I don't think so, this is not a movie, this is REAL.
