Death of a Fool

It's really unusual to find a movie that is full of kind and caring characters, and is, most of all, about the love of a young man for his grandfather. Of course, played by the inimitable Mario Ernesto Sanchez, much-loved leader of the Miami / Hispanic Theater scene, how could he be anything but lovable? Benji Leon does a great job as the concerned teenager, with Gene Gabriel being suitable creepy as the Mysterious Man. Zully Montero is as lovely as ever, although she turns out to be something a little unexpected too. And Beatrice Leiva has a small role in which she is positively luminous! Beautifully written and directed by first time director, Ismael Gomez III, this is a truly Miami story, full of recognizably Miami characters. And the rabbits are pretty good too!

Gotta watch it again because there's a lot of mysteries I didn't get quite right. The comedic tone made it quite refreshing and the peculiar characters kept me engaged throughout.

Entertaining mystery which will keep to wanting to know more. Nothing is explained, and you have to watch it to understand whats going on. Not like Hollywood films where you can predict the outcomes of everything before its even started. Good romp through emotions and the cast acted thier characters really well.

Just put your critical hat on the shelf, open a beer and sit relax into this one.

Well done everyone involved

Worth checking out if you like independent movies with a strong theme, tender characters, and a solid story. It's a whimsical kind of movie that explores life and death. I believe it's something I could have watched with my whole family (perhaps 10 or 12 years and older).

This was our family's Holiday movie and it was perfect. A heartwarming and fun movie. You really feel the connection between Pablo and his grandfather, and how much they care about each other. The story is very unpredictable with twists around every corner. The director does a great job in keeping us at the edge of our seats.

The movie is a fun detective caper that kids will enjoy, but also keeps adult viewers fully engrossed with topics like religion, death, and the afterlife. This is a great family film.
