Cary Darling

Houston Chronicle

An entertaining blast of Texas noir that nods toward the work of the Coen brothers, Quentin Tarantino and fellow Austinite Greg Kwedar's 2016 low-budget thriller "Transpecos" as well as "Breaking Bad."

Rated: 4/5

Austin Chronicle

The story itself slithers with twists and turns and unexpected betrayals. It's almost ridiculous how many characters die in this film.

Rated: 3/5

Joe Friar

The Victoria Advocate

The story of a South Texas ranch hand who gets mixed up with a Mexican cartel moves with pulse-pounding velocity and features top performances from a talented cast of actors with Texas roots.

Rated: 3/4

Film Threat

Tejano is one of those films that can be described as a hidden gem as it sneaks under the radar and will have you talking, telling your friends about it, and wanting to watch it again.

Rated: 9/10

A lower budget film but it was still great. Some parts had us laughing. But it was a good movie to check out on a school night.

Very authentic to the Rio Grande Valley. Well crafted indie production with slick editing and genre nods throughout.

The first half is better than the 2nd half, and funnily enough I didn't notice the bad acting until the end.

Very well made low budget movie, except for the story. Has beautiful cinematography and locations, however the story is solidly lacking of substance, is very generic and predictable.
