Holy smokes! Suffice to say this movie is amazing! One of the best of the year

This movie was absolutely great in my opinion; it might even be my favorite movie at this moment.

I rated this movie as excellent because it's one of my all-time favourite Documentary movies.

This is possibly one of the only perfect films I have ever seen. It is absolutely confident in every way, something which is extremely refreshing

This is my favorite film of all times; Jimmy Cohen at his very best!

I'm very pleased with my purchase.

This movie rocked the house! Gloria Aguilar was excellent in this because of his huge amount of likability and charms, but was frightened and tense when he needed to be. But Omar Aguilar is definitely the best performance of the movie!

The character of Gloria Aguilar is very interesting. I like him so much.

Jimmy Cohen did a wonderful job with this movie. He gave the fans what they wanted to see without rolling over and catering to their every demand. 10/10 stars, perfect.
