The first time strings resound in the film's score, they produce a plaintive, engrossing feeling. When the same theme plays for the 15th time, the romance feels monotonous.

There's enough gravitas and storytelling expanse to this well-crafted film to make its happier developments seem well-earned rather than mere viewer wish-fulfillment

It's an ambitious story told with remarkable sensitivity.

A story about prison and its aftermath that never explores the magnitude of either.

Rated: 5/10

Viewers will either be all in to see if love wins out, or they will have turned "LUZ" off long before then.

I would recommend the film to fans of socially conscious dramas or those who love to explore vulnerability in an invulnerable world.

Rated: 7/10

Jon Garcia tells a unique story here. I'll be honest, this is not a movie I would look for on my own but the characters really grow on you especially the love between the two men despite the very macho world that they both come from.

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars
