Mexican Wrestling Mystery...Interesting concept
Um....Interesting one that one. That wasn't exactly the best movie to ease ourselves back into the swing of writing and posting these reviews. We have taken a month off to sort a lot of glitches and stuff out, and now we start out again with a movie that was entirely in Spanish and seemed to lack any desirable story-line of any kind. Like, usually when you watch a foreign movie, even without the subtitles on you can normally discern some kind of logical story progression. Not so much here. We are still totally at a loss as to what actually happened here. The production and technical elements of the film were very good and had the story been better we probably would have been able to enjoy it. But as it was, we found ourselves kind of...adrift. And I am not comforted by the fact that I know we have many more 'Santo' movies to go. A note needs to me made however in reference to Rossy Mendoza, a Mexican beauty queen. Who unlike a lot of American or British Beauty queens who seek a life in feature films, actually seemed to have some genuine acting talent. It was very tasteful and not at all slutty, but that doesn't mean that I'm going to let it slide. Overall we thought that, while this film was well out together tech wise, it lacked the actual substance and story to make the film an enjoyable experience.
