Movie Reviews

New York Times - 6/10 by Laura KernAntonio Negret's sloppily executed film plays like a car commercial and a military-recruitment promo.
Reel Film Reviews - 5/10 by David Nusair...loses serious points for an ending that's both baffling and infuriating.
New York Daily News - 5/10 by Elizabeth WeitzmanThe Colombian tourist board won't be too happy about Antonio Negret's intermittently compelling thriller, which presents his native country as a cesspool of corruption and violence.
Hollywood Reporter - 3/10 by Frank Schecksuffers from an overly cluttered narrative and too-hyperkinetic style.
User Review - 10/10 by Veronica IExcellent film!!! For being Negret's first feature film he needs to get his props! A powerful look at the kidnappings in Colombia and the struggles most of us don't even think about living here in the U.S. Great story, direction, and the character development was perfect! Two thumbs way way up!!
User Review - 10/10 by Ba OThis movie is phenomenal. The ending is definitely surprising twist and not what I would have expected but it was still a great movie with a remarkable cast!
User Review - 10/10 by Tommy MThis was an amazing film about the troubles that colombains face every day. It is a very shocking, emotional film that shows people the truth. It is very scary to think that every 3 mins. a person is taken and 1 out of 10 people live. Great plot and casting.
User Review - 10/10 by Steven BPowerful and gripping. A sadly tragic tale of how terrorism destroys the social fabric of one network of individuals.
User Review - 8/10 by Ula BI don't know what to say, I'm still in shock. Great movie, very good and sad story inspired by true events.
User Review - 8/10 by Julia WIntense, emotional, and scary in an all too realistic kind of way. It was a bit confusing to follow at first, but very well done.
