Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.
Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.
It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.
The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
This is a fairly straight forward film. Kapone (Ronnie Alvarez) is wanted by his parole officer (Rico Aiello) for missing three meetings. He is also wanted by the Familia gang for being a snitch, of which he is wrongly accused.That is pretty much it. Kapone has some good escape and running skills. He also has a wife and girlfriend. He is not exactly a role model, but he is what we got for a protagonist. The acting is so-so. The support cast lacked. The sound was choppy in some scenes.Average Latino crime drama.Guide: F-bomb. No sex or nudity. Some cleavage.
I felt that this film was very well made and has a great cast. It also had amazing cinematography. When considering that this movie was a low budget film, I have to say it was very well put together. It had an amazing cast. Known actors are in the movie as well such as Noel G. (Training Day, Fast and the Furious, The Dark Knight, etc.), You also have Richard Cabral, (Paranormal Activity, A Better Life and End of Watch), and also Danny De La Paz who has been a well known actor especially in the Latino community since the 1970s. This film seems like it had a lot of heart put into it. I could sense a lot of passion and hard work went into it as well. I think it is definitely worth a watch especially if you are into independent films such as myself and/or you are a fellow Latino/Latina.
