Typical "bad guy" (Nacho) chasing a victim (Zoe Bell) but this time in the jungle. The screen-player or screenwriters of this movie tried to mix the heroic Rambo like skilled photographer with both drugs and violence stereotypical of Colombia. The story is quite poor in content and reality, over-posted loud sounds on violent scenes, guerrilla speaking in English or on Mexican-Spanish even they called Nacho "guero" word that doesn't exist in South-America. Decent photography and OK acting.
We are not garbage collectors as Herzog would say... where are the good filmmakers then?

Loved this movie. Lately I struggle finding movies with depth, character, quality and not just violence, drugs and porn. This movie reminded me how important journalism is to the oppressed and broken. They go to wars with cameras not guns showing truth not opinion removing self, chancing death, seeing so much pain and carnage! Watch this movie it is up there with the best I've seen in awhile!!
This is a film about a photojournalist who gets in over her head.
Zoe Bell does a great job with the role, and the supporting cast is excellent.
It is exciting, fun, and tense. The scenery is beautiful.
It is sweet to see a female action figure who actually looks like she could do it. Bell is a stunt double, who looks like she could take down a lot of men. She is athletic and quick.
She also happens to be a good actress.
Want a fun evening with a movie that won't make you think or leave you feeling bad? This one is a good bet. My wife and I both enjoyed it, and we are not enamored with just any old movie.

I like Zoe so was more than willing to be entertained, but the Directors vision lets the story down. The lame 'introduction' for example; wft? Do yourself a favor and Fast Forward thru the first 10 minutes of 'Character development' because its a disaster and imho counter-productive and damaging to the film overall. Nothing in that first 10 minutes creates any empathy or positive connection to the character.
Seriously,the first 10 minutes are a waste of time and would have been best left on the cutting room floor. The opening Credits begin at the 10:00minute mark, start there and the experience will be greatly improved.

If you're after a suspenseful thriller with a dark and vicious backbone to it, I'd thoroughly recommend this one! The story follows Avery (the wonderful Zoe Bell) an acclaimed photojournalist who is sent to document a few days in the life of a missionary group led by Guillermo (played ferociously by Nacho Vigalondo) and she soon captures something that we was not supposed to see. It seems to be a passion project for Zoe Bell (who also is executive producer of the film) and she really does give her all here; a thoroughly engaging screen actor who was before most well known for her brilliant stunt work as Xena The Warrior Princess and Uma Thurman's stunt double as the Bride in the Kill Bill movies. Since her amazing role in Death Proof (2007) she has gone on to feature in more starring focused roles in such films as the fantastic Whip It (2010) and is a very underrated talent as showcased in Camino. Everyone else also act really well in this film; particularly Vigalondo who is great at presenting a ruthless man who can still work his charm on those around him (a monologue he delivers at one point in the film is really powerful) The music in the film, composed by Pepjin Caudron AKA Kreng, is perhaps the most key component in the mood and tension of the film; a shrieking, thumping soundtrack that slams the audience in the face in the more hard to watch scenes in the film. The hard to watch parts may disturb some viewers and what surprised me most about this film is that it doesn't hold back on the violence (certainly not for the squeamish) and some disturbing imagery (the most important photograph of the story stayed with me a little while after)
