This movie is not bad. The Action is good, the whole movie has a great look. It might have some little problems at the end, when the filmmakers really try to make this movie look more "international" or "hollywoodstylish", but that is okay, because it ist a charming movie. This movie is real good entertainment. And that's what this movie is made for!
Unfortunally some viewers want to watch a Michael-Bay-Movie. But guys: Michael Bay has budgets of more than 100 Millionen Bucks per movie! And compare this movie to all those American action-movies made for the international video / DVD - market in the last years (sind 1995). Most of these movies were bad and even worse. So "Gomez et Travares" might not be a masterpiece, but it is better than most b-Actionmovies from Hollywood of the last years.
