When I watch the Director/Producers Comments on a rental, it is because I think a film is worth it. This was worth it. I am a big Film buff, I have been around the Industry all my life. I rate this movie a 10 in every aspect. Totally filmed in Boil Heights (East L.A.), Filmed in what they call Gorilla Filming (not done in a studio, but on the Fly). Very realistic, it was as if you were looking out your widow watching your neighbor. It is so realistic in the reaction and emotion of the characters. I have never seen better acting by John Leguizamo and Rosie Perez. The rest of the cast is perfect for their roles. I don't praise movies like I praise this, one of the best I have seen in many years.
