Perfect cast and a good story
It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.
Brutal and raw documentary showing Panama reality ... Life is not a joke in Panama, and this is not a tourism video ...There is no doubt about the nuts and contacts of the Director, showing us a bunch of destructed families, ruined lives in prison and non sense 21 century reality of human beings with no fear of death. Narco buildings in the little Manhattan in Panama City is just the peak of the Iceberg of the corrupted world in countries smashed by Capitalism. The Channel of Panama, source of richness for the country is not giving any money to the people ... Poorness that Panama people try to fill with the strategic position between Colombia and Mexico ... Bribing to the Cartels of the drug in order to get benefit.
