Hasta el cielo

Premise is interesting but the film kept jumping forward without properly explaining what was happening or giving you time to properly bond with the characters and instead you're trying to figure out how far ahead they've jumped to put what you are seeing in context. The script and storytelling really let this whole film down unfortunately.

Fragmented narration with unexplained actions. Something is always missing between scenes. A pleasant film (?) if you watch it washing dishes at the same time for example.

Watching it with an open mind made it a bit interesting, but trying to gap the pieces for the story to make sense was hideous.

It's action-packed, for sure, but fails to impress. Story is skin-deep as my frustration is almost sky-high. It revolves around a young criminal who leads in executing one heist after another if he's not around banging his girlfriend. It's unfair to cast the great Luis Tosar in this second-rate film. Is anything positive about this film? Well, Miguel Herran has the makings of that famous Hollywood actor by the name of Steve McQueen. The camera angles are ok, too.

In itself a Good heist film but somehow I don't see the connections between the individual scenes. It rather seems like half of the storry is not telled, like if you only ever see short excerpts from the whole story. In the end that feels very unsatisfactory, incomplete somehow, and that although the film is 2 hours long.
