Pickpockets

Would not recommend this one. story wasn't intriguing, i didn't care about the characters and i found it ( especially @ the end) way to predictable. The romance part was kinda good but also very stereotypical. The story didn't got deep or anything.

A Colombian dramatic film. Quality. Slightly parsimonious. There are moments that pass very quickly and others that pass slowly. The problem is that trying to romanticize it and that wastes time. It is about boys who steal and teachings without being pickpockets, and indirectly mix with criminal sides. The problem is that it sometimes shows the true motivation of why stealing. In the first half of the movie, the editing is quite interesting.

As a fan of social movies, this is a great movie showing true colors from our undeveloped countries.

Great acting and very good script.

Highly recommended for those who enjoy movies that resemble our sad reality.

For those who criticize violent movies coming from Colombia, I'd say keep an open minded and enjoy the film. Support your local film industry and Netflix.

Pick Pocketing has existed for ages, and this is the perfect example how they work in our time. My grandpa was victim of pick pocketing during the 50s, my father during the 70s in my beloved country. I will always exist while social inequality prevails in our society.

Freedom, transgression. It could be set in any country in Europe, or in the world, but it is a Colombian film, a very good one, of which I have seen very few films, unfortunately, a great film about a reality, pickpockets, and all the criminality behind these boys and girls (who are mules/little planes, who only keep a small part of the proceeds of the robberies)... A film for young people, with some romance, drama, action, escapes and chases, a lovely soundtrack... The fights bothered me much more than the thefts, because it is cruel and sadistic...

The drama is set in the capital of Bogotá, Colombia, and follows a 16-year-old street boy who, together with two friends, learns the art of stealing.

Kid wants to live without work. Or whatever. The script does not bother with the characters' past. There is the sexual woman. And the old man who wants to see his family. And the bad guys. Everything is stock or stereotype. In the end the movie fails because the characters seems only excuses to march the dubious mix of christian and marxist values of the script. And yes, it seems there are proletarians even among criminals.
