Hugo Hernández Valdivia Cinexcepción 12/13/2017
6.5/10
... the film shows how religion has not ceased to be a corporate issue, quite profitable for those who administer it, who are true entrepreneurs. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Alejandro Alemán El Universal 01/05/2016
With clear influence of the Scorsese's films, the film exposes the fraudulent world of faith, all without false morality and with plenty of black humor. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Jessica Oliva Cine Premiere 09/15/2015
3.5/5
Harold Torres and Carlos Bardem support the entire movie and kept intriguing, though, as the end approaches, the argument loses strictness and neglects his characters in order to offer the twists and suspense a thriller promises.

3.5/5
The message seems to be so strong and his situation is so desperate that Gonzalez will start to assume a new role in his life: a more determined, bright and gloomy. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Carlos Bonfil La Jornada 09/13/2015
The film explores these raw situations perhaps inspired in Hollywood films, but with feet firmly planted on an actual Mexican reality. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Mabel Salinas En la butaca 09/13/2015

06/13/2020 The Mexican Joker. A fascinating critique towards capitalism and religion organizations. See more 10/12/2015 Gonzalez nos adentra al oscuro mundo de las falsas religiones y como le roban a la gente por medio de la fe. La primicia es buena pero su lento desarrollo hacen que la pelicula se torne pesada y tanto que llegas a desear que ya se termine, cuando el final por fin llega es absurdo y estupido. Una pelicula que tuvo todo para ser perfecta, desde el tema hasta los actores, desgraciadamente su guion es su gran talon de aquiles. See more 03/05/2015 A harsh but at the same time funny reality. Gonzalez carries slow pace but it satisfies as a drama thriller. See more 10/19/2014 Super cool, stunningly shot, and never dull though it tells the story of the lazy slip from poverty into crime. Amazing that compared to powerlessness, criminality looks a lot like entrepreneurship. An action thriller for the thinking film fan. See more Read all reviews
