User Review - 10/10 by Jesse PCast: Richard Rowley? Well, at least it's here.
User Review - 10/10 by Private UAn enlightening film about an egalitarian, brilliant, exploited, and misunderstood people. The indigenous of Mexico should not be forgotten.
User Review - 8/10 by Andrew RVery important film; not that cinematically impressive, but that's not the point.
User Review - 8/10 by Trinity CFrom the makers of "Fourth World War," this film inspires me to take action.
User Review - 6/10 by Jason Da good, informative documentary because it contains interviews with hard-to-reach "fugitives from justice" and educates the public about an issue it is ignoring. but it mostly fails as a scholarly endeavor because it is wholly populist and one-sided, completely ignoring the stances of the mexican government and the world bank, and it fails on the artistic front because it is presented in tacky fashion, like a high-school news feature.
