Review of Drama/Mex (2006) by Sam B — 14 Dec 2007

This movie had some potential but managed to run itself into the ground fairly well. Kind of 'arty' Mexican film set in Crapapulco (as one character calls it). Several plots evolve and intertwine and you soon find yourself not particularly caring for any of them.

I found the acting to be adequate to slightly above average. I felt like some sarcasm may have been lost in translation (although I consider myself well versed in sarcasm). The ending left the taste of listerine in my mouth.

The lead female actor was gorgeous and I can only assume a couple of the male actors would be considered "hot" as well. The ten year old boy I was babysitting when I watched this movie greatly appreciated the partial nudity.
