  This movie follows in the footsteps of great movies coming out of Mexico and South America. Films like Y Tu Mama Tambien, City of God, The Motorcycle Diaries, Amorres Perros and now Sin Nombre are really putting this "genre" on the map. This movie does an excellent job of giving the viewer a glimpse of an immigrant's life on the road from South America to the US and why the dream exists. As a former high school teacher in Oakland, CA - I know this was all too true of a reality for many of my students that found their way "illegally" into the US with their families looking for a better life. Additionally, the perspective it gives on mexican/latino gangs in both the US, Mexico and South America is astonishing. The connection between gangs in South America/Mexico and California & the Southwestern US has not been captured well in a movie quit yet. Regardless, this is a movie worth seeing whether or not immigration or gangs are topics that interest you because it is simply a well made film.
(9/10)
