Terrible, what a shame., 12 May 2004

Author:
Jose Sanchez from Mazatlan, Mexico
As other users commented, I knew it was bad before watching it but I
entered
hoping to find something all right and with the idea of supporting Mexica
Cinema, but oh surprise, I was dissapointed because of the terrible story,
the director, the characters, Too bad �cause Arau has done some OK work,
but this was terribly out of the line.
What the hell with the images of the magic indians?, the old lady who is
her
guide?, I know the director wanted to use "magic realism", used by
novelists
like Garcia Marquez, but it is not appropiate for this movie. Besides
that,
half of the movie is based on invention and away from real history, too
bad
because the real story of Zapata has great things to write about and to
make
a great film.
The character Victoriano Huerta (Jesus Ochoa), is kind of the only worth
watching, he�s always been a great actor.
The script is terrible, the acting is bad, the images ..well, really you
better read a biography of this great revolutionary and get some good
history instead of paying $40 pesos to get nothing.
