Disappointing plot
4 April 2011
At the end you finish as Fermin: going back empty. Good things: amazing views of a country that has much to offer to the movie world. Some excellent actors mixed with some artificial ones. The best scene: the machete fighting, good for the cameras, but isolated and unclear once more inside the plot. Terrible: Fermin (the real main character) following a 'master' who teaches nothing to him (movie mistake.) You would expect that, as a Chinese master of martial arts, Carrillo would teach him, but it never happens and Fermin ended humiliated at the end as the spectator. No smiling at all, but no meaning on it also. Very rude in any sense (the psychology of the characters.) Dialogs that seem inspired in works of Gabriel García Márquez but applied in a very poor way. Failed tries of sub-realism like the part of the sorcerers. Best actor: Yull Núñez.
