      Kinda cheesy in places, but for the most part it kept us entertained. I had to wonder what I would do in Cuba's place and decided he made some very bad decisions along the way! <<(Spoiler Alert Below)>> I didn't like the fact that it shows the Border Patrol Agents lying & covering up murders, even if the gangsters were the ones murdered. Also it portrays American citizens guarding the border (Minuteman type) as gun happy, violent, vigilantes just out to beat the crap out of mexican's crossing the border illegally. A lot of underlying liberal messages in this movie.

      The movie was very slow and boring but lead up to a very good ending and story. It was worth watching.
