Así del precipicio

Crap, crap, crap... I saw this movie because it promised a good work, (or so was the campaign).

But what i found was a fistful of clichés, bad acting, bad timing, bad direction, bad use of a could be good plot, bad edition, etc.

The vision of the excess is very simplistic.

It pretends to be controversial putting some nudes around here, some drug abusing there, some violence there, but all that is gratuitous.

But the worse of all is its pretentiousness, it pretends to be a "not for the weak of hearth" movie, it pretends to give us a moral, but worse of all, it pretends to be a movie.

It is so bad that even the involuntary humor is bad.

It's a shame that Mexican cinema nowadays is very poor, both in quantity and quality.

It is by far the worst movie I've ever seen. The acting is terrible, the story is grotesque and pretty unreal and they try to get our attention by displaying pornographic images all the time.

There is one user who assured that it is pretty much the way it happens in Mexico. I gotta say that it certainly isn't. I've lived most of my life in Mexico City and although we have a lot of problems, it is not like we live our lives surrounded by alcohol, drugs, etc. It is a shame that this user believes that the movie shows a true side of this place.

I would never suggest anyone to watch this movie as it is pure rubbish. If you plan to see a good Mexican movie try "Innocent Voices" instead. It may not be the greatest movie ever, but at least that's truly shocking, and a piece of art, I might say.

Anyway, don't waste your time or money... "Asi del precipicio" completely sucks...

This movie is one of the worst movies i've ever seen. The script is really bad, from the plot developing to the dialoges. The so called shocking situations (The sex scenes and gay situations) don't serve to the story at all, it's obvious that the reason of that scenes is to cause controversy to fill the movie theaters, which is a shame, cause in Mexico is a lot of talent (i can't believe this piece of crap is financed by the government). Anyway, the actors don't help too much, they act like a soap opera, you simply can't believe a thing to any of them, they are fake, unidimensional, and predictable... The director of this film really have a copy of requiem on the set (just listen the music score), brokeback mountain and ameliè (for the initial scene), sadly she is far away to be Darren Aron's. I really waste my time and my money. DON'T WATCH THIS MOVIE PLEASE... IS Really BAD..

I thought twice about to write this comment, but since I have wasted my time watching that rubbish I decided to get something worth from it. Well lets take it straight ahead, would you like to see some sex scenes?, there are a few and in that case I would recommend to watch any another movie, or if for any reason you got the DVD just watch the beginning and speed it up till almost the end. Would you like to know how is the life in Mexico?, I mean the real life, the one of most of the Mexicans live day after day?, I recommend strongly "La Ley de Herodes" (that's a real master piece). In another hand I really do not know what Teresa Suarez tried to show. If there is an aim or a message I really missed it. It is so funny that in this movie she shows a "nice" and "cool" Mexican people, having a wonderful life, while the reality is that 40% of the people (40 millions) in that country are living under the poverty line. I really wonder if she has actually any kind of knowledge about writing or directing or if she has ever walked through out the streets of Mexico. Moreover, it could be interesting to know how Teresa got the funding for such a movie.

I just saw the movie and I have to say that it is the most grotesque, bad and raunchy movie I've ever seen. They try to shock the audience with their sex scenes, the drug abuse and violence. It is just so cliché. The acting is horrible, the theme is absurd, they drive it to the extreme and cannot get their point through, just to say that there was a point because I did not see one. They try to show the life of three "upper class" Mexican women, that have this life that has no line... It is just sad to see that this is the only thing that Mexican films have to offer, use of bad words, 'controversial' themes, and nudity. I just have to say that I lost 2 hours of my Thursday. Hated it!!!
