I just saw this film, and it is the worst movie I have ever seen. There were so many glaring problems with the story and the execution of film makers in general that it made me laugh. (It's supposed to be a "hard hitting" drama)
The sound design and ADR is absolutely atrocious, during one scene "Jose" talks for about 10 seconds walking behind some bushes and you can clearly see how bad the sync is. It is a terrible sound mix and bad sound FX, at one point you can see the actors firing guns and they are obviously making the fake guns move like there is some force behind them, like one might do at the age of 9 or 10 years old playing cowboys and Indians. The gun sparks themselves were nothing more than bad after effects that really topped off the cheesy effect.
Overall the acting is bad with a few exceptions "Rosa" was solid, although the sound design took away from anything good an actor might have done so it's hard to judge. "Jose" had some OK moments but over all was not very good. "Joker" was a terrible actor really stiff and tried to hard to be the "bad guy".
The direction and camera work left nothing to be desired and it seemed what ever the script had to offer these actors was not brought out on the screen. Lack of film knowledge, lighting, camera moves, and production value made this film a laughable example of how not to make a movie.
