"This movie represents the bario..extremely well. Judge this movie by its cover. without a doubt the most intricate and well developed story in a movie since willy wonka and the chocolate factory. you become so attached to the main characters, that when they get into scuffles you feel their pain. tio and his gang are straight up gangstas. BUY THIS MOVIE RIGHT NOW!!!! YOU WONT REGRET IT...UNDERGROUND CLASSIC."

Gene Siskel Film Center Review:

""The Gene Siskel Film Center of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago presented the Chicago premiere of an impressive first feature by Chicago-born and -based filmmaker Juan Carlos Buitron. Aided by a strong supporting cast, Buitron avoids many of the cliches of ghetto films, giving the film a more middle-class and multicultural focus, tackling the touchy subject of reverse discrimination, and taking a complex view of the hero's immaturity and the druglord/uncle's tragic qualities."June, 2002"
