Title: Mexican film noir . . .
Product review: The intricate plot of this thriller keeps you guessing from moment to moment as it takes sudden and unexpected turns involving corrupt police and government officials and a young couple with a baby who are inadvertently involved in a political assassination. This film goes quite gladly over the top as it pushes the envelope of credibility, and it might be even more gleefully thrilling if the rising crime rates and levels of violence in Mexico didn't tend to support the view we get of it. Be forewarned, there's plenty of melodrama - picture a young woman escaping from police detention with a gun in one hand and a baby in the other. Then hang onto your hat.
