Saving Private Perez 2011

About this movie: I saw this movie last week in México City and let me tell you it reminds me the fun I had when I first saw "Raiders of the lost ark" as a kid. Of course there are echoes of this classic and many other films in this even so original film. I mean, you are traveling trough many of your favorite films at the same time you are watching a very peculiar one, a very different one, as if Pedro Infante was directed by Spielberg or if Tin Tán and Mauricio Garcés made a movie with Sergio Leone. Nice trip, fun and adventure, a story that travels in time and around the world, with colorful characters and situations, and a very own Mexican look and depth in the portrayal of family, friendship, loyalty and sacrifice. In that way, the final song by Chavela Vargas is quite touching and epic. Mission accomplished.
