Own of the most impressive Mexican movies I see this year.
First to note that the movie has a different original title called el ulitimo vagon or the last wagon that is used also in Greece This is the story of a young boy called Ikal with a nomad family moving from city to another city as required by the bosses of his step-father who works in a railway road constructing company Due to these conditions he is quite unable as a young student to learn the school lessons as he still does not know on how to read.
The story goes continuously forth and back in time showing him as school inspector while the remain shows his activities in the school and his life with his mates. The teacher helped him to learn and also behaved as his second mom.
The movie is very nice as also the rural places It reminds my very long ago childish time. It is not so shallow as anyone can think it shows the best of not only the boy also the remain characters and the value of having friends Carlo Isaac the actors name s not shown in the first rank of the movies web page
9/10 It's a nice experience watching this movie.

It's a beautiful story about the kid's world, their struggling parents, heavenly childhood, importance of friends, the harsh realities of a makeshift railroad community, and it develops without any hype. Wonderful soulful movie, very worth to watch and think.
This movie reminds me of one of my favorite movie 'Stand by Me'. One of the most impressive Mexican movies I've ever seen.
Their childhood adventure reminds me my childhood, soulful school friends, school bunk, and many other things. This movie also clear my vision and take life easily. All is well.
Thank you Netflix for this amazing movie.

Heart Felt Feel good movie intrinsically directed, casted ,presented, summarized in one and half hour. The Knowledge base, poverty, goodness where it starts, how it overtakes your life in childhood , how it can make and break you, a community living which can absorb or dissolve you, the Teaching profession which can only give, share, enlighten, put you on a track from the start till the end. If you have lived a similar life of struggle, if you gone through migrations, village to towns, if you have lived a life of poverty, hard work at the same time contributed to the imaginary interest of the State, you will like this heartfelt movie...Nice...Watch.
Wonderful soulful movie, very worth to watch and think. This movie helps you to think about the events happen around you. The Director ( Ernesto Contreras) chose the dialogue carefully, I think this movie is a success because of such director.
Kid's World , How kids see the world around themselves/ How is the reality around kids ? Rich or Poor kids , they have their own ways to see the world. Rich or Poor kids believe in Magic , They want to reach their own dreams with Magic . Could dreams became Reality (Teacher gave. Jules Verne book to boy )? And Life goes on (The train will leave the station to the next station). You cannot change Past but you can build your Future.

A quite beautiful excerpt from the hard life of Mexican children living in a small town on the frontier ("where the tracks end").
Where they made long-lasting memories, friends and received some very necessary education.. by a wonderful teacher that wanted nothing but the best for her students (seemingly the core of the movie).
As per my understanding, the novel this was adapted from delves into the story in a different manner.. with the "brilliant inspector" Hugo Valenzuela having a more central role in the narrative. A change that might provide more depth into this character, for those interested in getting something more from the source material. As presented, this movie is a very well executed story that is as good as it could hope to be, for what is trying to say. With good cinematography, a great cast and some heartfelt moments.
