Movie #124 "Sin Nombre" was a very good film, BUT very violent. In the opening moments, while the leader numbers off to 13, they beat the heck out of this little boy, as he lies on the ground bleeding. This is a movie people should show teenagers who are thinking of becoming gang members because ohmygod, it shows the results very clearly......I wanted to see this movie for a long time, since it came out earlier this year and the guys on "at the movies" said it was the best movie uptodate. Then, when they made their top 10 lists, they didn't go back to it,and I wondered if there was a reason. I just think they forgot about it, because the movies they listed aren't as intense or powerful as some of this film. So I'm glad I finally got to see it, but I would never want to see it again. Too disturbing.
