Trivia

In the beginning when the man in the poncho pulls a pistol and points it at the man who has a leg wound, clearly the magazine well is empty meaning that either the gun is empty, or has only one bullet in it (in the chamber).

Goofs

Miguel hot-wired the truck to start the engine using two hands. Then after checking on Montesinos' crash on the side road, he started the truck's engine appearing to be using a key as he used one hand for it.

Suspense Thriller That Is Best With Subtitles

Spanish movie. Great ending. Thriller the entire way. Assuming you are like me and don't speak a lick of Spanish, trust me when I say you need to watch with subtitles on in Spanish language. That is a must. Watching the dubbed over version in English will ruin it for you.

About a police officer who's first day on the job is tasked with driving an armored police truck to transport a half dozen or so very dangerous cons. During the trip, the truck is attacked in the middle of nowhere by a mysterious maniac who will stop at nothing to get inside the truck and kill one of the cons. Why that Is exactly you don't find out until the end.

This movie has suspense from start to finish. Not a dull moment. Very serious. I can't recall chuckling once. Not a horror film but it tiptoes the line with a very eerie setting.

I throughly enjoyed the acting and for a movie that takes place mostly from the constraints within an armored police truck, it had me on the edge of my seat throughout. I planned on only watching a bit of this movie and then going to bed as it was already late in the night when I started watching. The adrenaline of the movie kept me going to entire way and I easily finished it in one setting Features a surprise ending I didn't see coming. Has an element of darkness that I find attractive in suspense thrillers like this.

If you're someone who can sit though foreign movies while reading the subtitles and you like suspense thrillers, this movie is well worth your time.
