Nihilism in the film captivated me from beginning to end. While there are implications of cultural imperialism, the culture poisoning of the individual has also been shown. The institution of 'family' has been included in the dilemma as the institution to which the individual both wants to move away and which he remains attached. Many people have criticized the lacuna in the script, but I think this was left on purpose because the movie rejected the causality principle from the beginning. Sound editing tooks part in the movie as an actor/actress. The black woman with a bleeding nose at the party, the rubik's cube, and the people jumping into the water... Each symbol is skillfully placed.

Nihilism or the reason why
Great Concept, cool cinematography, average execution
The movie had a really cool/interesting story to pull from and I thought they did a pretty good job at keeping the story going, though there is one part where the plot drags a little. There were some really great and interesting cinematography. The movie over all is okay, would give it a 7.5 if I could. I think the film is worth the watch but make sure to read the actual story afterwards.
more than a caper flick
Juan and his pal, Wilson, rob a Mexican museum of rare objects in an attempt to get rich and put some excitement into their lives. juan, more than Wilson. lots of "drama" in the background. what would seem like a very simple movie is really quite wonderful. gael Garcia bernal is his usual terrific self. nothing plays as things usually do in this kind of movie. it's really a movie about friendship.
