El Camino

The movie is a hard watch, raw and true. What worked:

• it's based on a true event and what ends well is well
• crisp and focused on the main topic it wants to discuss

What didn't work:

• since it is an indie movie and production cost is low, it is visible in aspects of the movie

Final verdict: Recommended. It's a journey and this journey won't disappoint.

This is a must see film, the story and the characters are captivating, Miguel's journey through addiction and recovery in this story was portrayed beautifully, the film captures the depth and weight of What it means to experience Methamphetamine addiction and What it means to recover, I watched this film for the first time as it was submitted to the big house Los Angeles big Latino cinema festival, I was one of the reviewers for the festival, and I knew immediately upon finishing the trailer that I had to see the full length version of this film, after watching the full length version of the film I as well as many other reviewers agreed that it should be accepted into the film festival programming, later twenty reviewers had seen the full length version of the film and all of them agreed it would be accepted as an official selection for the 2015 film festival at regal cinemas lalive, when the film was screened at the festival on Thursday November 12th 2015 it was a big hit, the audience participation in the voting process chose El Camino over the feature film 120 Days in the film challenge as the winner for best picture for the big Latino cinema festival 2015.
