Audience Member muy muy mala espero que el imcine no haya dado nada para tal basofia Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Desafortunadamente, esta pelicula mexicana lo malo que tiene es su propaganda y lo que ofrece mercadotecnicamente hablando: pelicula mexicana por excelencia (violencia, sexo, drogas, etc.). Pero lo que nos da, es mucho mas que eso. Con un humor negro bastante bien manejado y una fotografia excepcional, Nesio no debe ser juzgada por su portada. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member Nothing extraordinary, but not bad. The movie doesn't stand out as good or bad, and that's not something you want from a movie these days. Also, I'm quite disappointed as I saw this in a gay film festival and it was advertised as a gay movie, even taking advantage from Jorge Adrián Espíndola's greatest hit, the gay short film <B><I>David</B></I>. But this is <B>not</B> a gay movie. There is one same sex relationship through the plotline but it is a subplot from a supporting character and by any means that makes this movie gay. I didn't hate it for that but it was quite lame. A great surprise: Tenoch Huerta, a rising actor in mexican cinema nowadays, gives a tour-de-force performance (he is the one with the gay plotline, actually) in a character we have seen zillions of times in local films (downtown small time crook with nothing better to do than crime) but breathes fresh air into it and you can't help but love him. Jorge Adrián Espíndola, usually an amazing actor, feels bored and stiff all the time and Claudette Maille, an old-school actress in her comeback (she's the mother of the lead characters in 2008's <B><I>Quemar las naves</B></I>), steals the show all the time as a prostitute/wrestler (holy crap...) with a heart of gold (apparently), probably the best character in the movie. I think the issue with this film is that there was virtually no direction. The so-called director doesn't pull the guts from his actors and they all feel confused and weird in a movie they probably didn't understand. It could've been a movie full of great moments and interesting characters but it just feels like... whatever. You just don't care about anything on the screen, except for Tenoch Huerta's character. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Nice intentions, regular result Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member Me recordó a "Partes Usadas" sólo que versión para adultos. Dos jovenes que quieren conseguir dinero fácil pero que al final su ambición termina por hacerles una mala jugada. Se quedó en el camino ya que la historia es un tanto predecible y a veces da la impresión de que el director sólo busca impresionar con las imágenes sórdidas.
