Plot

When a Mexican film director becomes fed up with the crime and corruption in his homeland, he decides to single-handedly take on a powerful band of criminals.

Sinekatalog’s take

A satirical Mexican crime comedy in which a frustrated film director decides to take on corruption himself. Loud, cheeky and a bit scattershot, it aims at easy targets but has enough energy to entertain fans of irreverent Latin American satire.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
