    LETTERBOX. A pesar de cuánto aprecio que exista una película en la que Leo Sbaraglia (buen casting) se encuere y ame a Eduardo Noriega (mal casting), esta peli no convence del todo. Es erótica, atisba a trabajar bien la psicología de sus personajes (sobre todo de El Nene) y, por un segmento, retrata bien la situación de enclaustramiento en que estos se encuentran... Pero, tal cual se presentan, la volatilidad y torpeza de estos tipos no los hace creíbles como criminales profesionales (sí, ok, está basada en una historia real)... y el final es sencillamente desastroso. / Despite my great appreciation for a movie in which Leo Sbaraglia (good casting) appears butt-naked and also loves Eduardo Noriega (bad casting), this movie is not very convincing. It is erotic, gets near exploring well the psychology of its characters (especially El Nene) and, for a while, presents well their sense of entrapment. But, as portrayed, their volatility and clumsiness makes them not very believable professional criminals (ok, yes, it is based on a true story), and the ending is plain disastrous.

    A violent thriller from Argentina, based on the true story of a crime spree that spread across Argentina and Uruguay in 1965 by a pair of criminals known as The Twins.This great film reminds me of Bonnie & Clyde.

    There was so much sexual tension between the two main characters that I was a little disappointed that we didn't see them have sex. But it was still ridiculously hot and good, nonetheless.

    poderia ser só mais um filme policial se não fosse a bela composição psicológica dos personagens, principalmente do casal gay. bem bão.

    A gay Argentinian "Bonnie & Clyde." Stiff and emotionally muted, this felt art directed to within an inch of its life
