3. Do you kinda get the feeling that Hell is about to hit Earth?
Or Mexico City, or wherever the heck they are?

8. Great stuff...Hell on Earth...
I lost a finger, guess which scene I was unable to watch? Ouch, but I hung in there.

The story does have a moral: no matter how screwed up your life is, you can always hope for an impossible assignment that recapitulates the very worst moments of your entire life...lasting for days.

I do like that scene in the Mexico City Disco, that is just perfect. I'd like to think American's would be as cooperative and courteous.

9. what an amazing movie!
it's a little bloody, but it's a great movie. I find it interesting that it's almost a Mexican film being that most of it is in Spanish. The score is awesome and yes, it is a tear-jerker of a movie.

12. I liked that movie
I felt it was slow at first, but once it got going it was gone. Denzel's great when playing an angry character.

Intense visuals, great story, excellent performances.

Sadly overlooked in the theaters.
