This movie is part of a religious propaganda and it lacks of tolerance on its view by evangelic fundamentalist who believes in conservatism, creationism and brainwashing. It is as a 2 hours monologue where a preacher (Jorge Reynoso), tries to save Rafael Iclan from his sins and misbehavior. Quality and consistency are poor and there is no acting at all. You could love the picture if you are in tune with the message it brings, or will hate it, in case you were expecting a comedy or action movie. The suggested title of BIBLE TALK is a good one. That will tells you all and will alert you about the content (the original title suggest a action-comedy).

This movie is a superb production, but lacks of tolerance or flexibility or breadth on its view. The photography and locations were chosen beautifully. The story is based on revolution days in Mexico. The movie seems to have been directed as an anti-catholic propaganda against "cristeros" by evangelic fundamentalist, and the use of icons and dialogs are so obvious and deliberated that should be seen as educational essay of movie mistakes that shouldn't been done by a director. I think the movie make conclusions by its own an doesn't allow to make your own. It should have been a interesting movie but you get bored after the first 5 minutes.

This was a good effort to bring to TV the fall of Noriega's regime. I was in Panama during the events and they are very accurate. The low-budget production uses almost all the resources available to show a realistic view but it still having a Mexican flavor. I will suggest to see the movie just to understand better the time and people that took part of this moment in the history of Panama. Due the fact the movie was not produced in US nor Panama, it doesn't have a preference on any of the sides Some of the actors are very similar to the original characters and that probes it was a research effort. I was disappointed that with so talented actors, the movie doesn't bring the drama and passion it could have had.
