Welcome to Acapulco

Decent directing by Guillermo Ivan (who also played Rafael), although the shaky-cam scenes were annoying. Good action (but very repetitive), and pacing that fit the 98 min runtime, but the writing was terrible and cliched. Four writers and you'd think at least one could write better than a 5th grader. The worst part was the infantile narrating that really failed this film, as did casting novice Michael Kingsbaker who's acting was amateurish and annoying. The rest of the cast was great, but not enough to get past the annoying Kingsbaker and his narrating. Any review above a 5 for this film (including out of the current 8) are all fake/paid. This film is no better than my 4/10. Avoid, even if you're bored.

It's impossible to watch even a half hour from this movie.

If you are old enough to remember when you would rent a really low budget movie by accident but you paid $4.99 so why not watch it but you end up regretting that choice, this is that kind of movie. Some of it is shot well, the Mexican authorities look very professional and shot well. Many of the actors have been in other good films, you would think it was better. Unfortunately, Michael Kingsbaker performance is a hacky, ham-fisted approach to comedy. If the character had been played straighter and not "wacky", it may have been a much better film.

Nicely shot,lots of action and not the typical Hollywood hero.

What a boring movie. To be honest I didn't even watch it to the end. I couldn' t. A sheer waste of time...Yes, camera and style might receive some points, but whoever wrote the script and chose the actors should change his job. Can not recommend.
