This movie is interesting because shows a slightly different view about the Latin America

All bad things that happens in Latin America is because the drugs dealers right? Wrong. This is what this movie is about. As a Latin American I saw a different point of view at this movie, something that is rare when the subject are "the third world countries". Usually Hollywood shows Latin America as poor, full of drug dealers, violence and ignorance. This movie shows the poor Latin America but starts to escape of stereotypes during the story, at certain point we discover that was not the drug cartel the responsible for the murderers but the police, what is a big difference compared with other movies that uses the same subject. This is what I most like in this movie, it shows that not everything that causes problems to the "third world" comes from drugs, some of the problems are sometimes caused by the big non-Latin American corporations and corrupted police.
