Blatantly telegraphs that “a twist is coming” the whole movie, but somehow manages to still be a lot of fun and have a ton of creative stuff
An excellent heist film. Well-paced, cleverly written and skillfully acted. Exciting from start to finish
Fun, captivating con flick, but it doesn’t have much staying power. I’d be willing to revisit it.
This movie is simply amazing. Full of twists and surprises. Great acting. A reflection of the decay of Argentina in the early 2000's
Complex, well planned movie. Darin is great in this one.
This movie made me love Cine Argentina and the beautiful song of Rita Pavone.
A grifter in Buenos Aires schools a naive newcomer to help in complex scam. Oddball characters. Surprises. Misdirection. Fun keeping up.
Un clásico que se disfruta más cuando se conoce la cultura argentina. Muy recomendable!! Sabas
una joya argentina, todo el mundo debería verla. Darín es el Al Pacino argentino (Lo dijo Tarantino)
entertaining variety of cons, with a decent solid plot and character backstory that kept things thrilling and interesting.
