User Reviews

Passion, drama and tension as never was shown in Mexican Cinema

The passion, tragedy and drama as ever was in the Golden Cine Mexicano. Sergio Suarez film surprised me since I saw the first cut, I can even say that all who were present at that first screening (including who would later be responsible for the score, Carlos Silotto), we knew we were facing a film that would to talk about. The perfect arrangement of its moments of drama, tension and even a pinch of humor of certain episodes, achieve an honest job, entertaining and essential to be seen by those who appreciate good films. Tequila, the drink, is undoubtedly a symbol of pride and national Mexican identity, a thing that a proud Mexican show off every where, and I'm sure the same thing will happen with the film. As with the drink, the film will make, after tasting it, the viewer goes out from the theatre with a very happy soul.
