Así del precipicio

To the reviewer who said this was an accurate depiction of drug and alcohol addiction - WRONG! First of all, one character quits cocaine and alcohol cold turkey and has NO withdrawal symptoms. In real life, she'd have severe diarrhea, sweats, shaking, migraines, weight gain, etc. Instead, she just goes on her merry way and everyone tells her how great she looks "Have you lost weight?" they ask. When she shoots a man, her father "arranges" everything and she does not get in trouble for it. This is so far from reality it's absurd! Furthermore, the acting is terrible, the writing awful, the timing bad, the character development shallow . . .even the green screen effects were poorly done. I'd say Teresa has a long way to go, if she can even get funding for another film!

Sex, drugs, and rock and roll have all been easy draws to a film. This one opens with some hot steamy sex (and drugs) between Lucia (Ana de la Reguera - Cop Out) and a bullfighter (Alejandro Nones). The next minute she is rushing to work and shooting the squeegee guys through her windshield. She did tell them not to do it! Hanna (Ingrid Martz) is having problems with her very rich husband (Ricardo Kleinbaum), a real mamma's boy. She spends a lot of time in therapy. She also likes to check out breasts more than I do, if that is possible, especially Sandra's (Anna Ciocchetti).

Carmen (Gabriela Platas), Unemployed likes to hang with a gay and a transvestite, and snort cocaine. In fact, I don't think five minutes goes by with her snorting more.

Put these three in one apartment, and you are certain to have some steamy and exciting action. Unfortunately, only one seems to end up finding happiness.

I thought the acting was great, and the story certainly kept your interest.

Regarding the comment below mine-- just because Mexico is an underdeveloped country, does that mean all movies must be about poverty? There is, obviously, a Mexican upper-class. As a student I lived with many Mexicans (who were from wealthy families) and they reminded me of some of the characters in the movie, especially with their careless use of cocaine. Regardless of how "realistic" this movie is-- I have no idea-- it is a bit funny, and satirical view of a few friends "on the edge." So I don't think this director should be criticized, at all, for making a movie involving the upper-class and cocaine. As for the movie- I found it to be entertaining, I had no idea what would happen next. At times I wondered, where is this all going? It didn't seem to have a very clear theme, but I recommend it to anyone who can stand a few very graphic sex scenes.

Super sexy Ana de la Reguera can't save this movie from sinking. The story is too lame and personal that maybe the director/writer wrote it when she was 14. Te first 5 mins of the movie are the best example of what is coming next: sex, drugs, bad acting, terrible dialog and lots of plot holes and contradictions.

There was strong publicity on this movie that was sure to pull a lot of people into theaters, most of them guys looking to get a peek of Ana's nude scene.

Unfortunately Mexico creates 20 bad filmmakers for every good one. Not too mention the hundreds who don't have the connections, friends or relatives to get the money for they movie, or a family fortune...

I can't believe how Mexican studios still throw away money like that.

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..
