"poor acting, storyline, cinematics" lmao! stick to bangbros man, this film is not for ignorant simpletons. In my opinion this is his best film, followed closely by Enter the Void. What are you talking about? Do you enjoy watching ISIS beheading videos?... I didn't mind the violence in the movie if that's what you mean, I had big expectations from all the reviews but in my opinion it was extremely depressing overall. Totally agree Really? No way!! :,( Spot on description of the hole movie. What a waste of talented actors! It's completely unrealistic, I'm from Colombia and studied History in university, during my classes I encountered countless testimonies of goons that used to work for Pablo Escobar during the Medellin Cartel era and all agreed that Pablo treated them like family, he took care of their respective families economically and always gave them the best personal treat, he didn't do that because he was a concerned for them but he was smart enough to know that his and his family's life were in the hands of these people, and it worked! Pablo's closest men literally gave their lives to protect him. I suppose that serves as an example for other crime lords in the rest of the world. But of course that narrative doesn't work in SOME movies since the bad guy needs to be 100% bad, otherwise the audience might develop empathy towards the character you're supposed to hate. I was very excited to see this movie because of the critics and rating but it was HUGE disappointment, you just see the characters you've grown to like suffer and suffer cruel punishment and horrific deaths throughout the hole film until the end. Yes, it was a flashback, his mother died just before his trip and right before she died she had a premonition of what was going to happen to her son. Sorry I hope that's clear enough.
