Viewing Notes

I feel bad I put off watching this movie for so long. I thoroughly enjoyed it and thought it was a caustic look inside the gangs of Central America. On the surface the plot is simple enough, but backed by very believable and emotional performances by all the kids, it elevated it to something special.
