This fascinatingly layered Argentinian con/caper film is never quite as far ahead of you as it could be, but still has you spiralling down guesswork rabbitholes right until the final scene. It can be a little dry but bolstered by some grand performances, sharp set pieces and I think some sincere social commentary - it's certainly worth a watch. There's also a melancholy behind the joyful credits when you discover the director died very suddenly and quite young - bravely turning down the opportunity to remake the film for American audiences. It now sits in a pantheon of well-loved Argentinian films that were recommended enthusiastically to me by someone from the country. It's the charismatic Ricardo Darín that serves as the throughline, and often the emotional anchor of all of these films and here as the morally grey Marcos, he's especially good.

It is a movie that does not seem to have been made in our country. I loved it. Its intriguing plot is interesting as soon as it starts and its unexpected ending is unforgettable. Ricardo Darín and Gaston Pauls show us once more the quality of the Argentine actors...

This film takes its own sweet time to get things stirring. And normally this slow pace might seem out of place in a heist movie, the payoffs are really worth it. Though one does began to guess who is really getting swindled in actuality towards the last half, nevertheless the finale is a sweet satisfying twist. The actors have done an amazing job further helped by a tight and focused script. I particularly love Ricardo Darin whenever he shows up on screen. He is really an amazing actor with a huge range. It's always a huge excitement to watch him become one with his characters on screen. Loved the film. Truly an underrated gem!

So many of the characters were suspect in this it was hard initially to tell what was what. Although I did manage to figure out who was screwing who well before the end, it was very well done and a thoroughly enjoyable film. I'd see this one again in a heartbeat! =^.^=

I've seen a lot of movies, and recently everything has been garbage. But this is a really rare movie that no one has heard of, that you have no idea what it's about, and it'll blow you away. A movie that surprises you at every moment and give you hope in movies again (although not in movies produced in Hollywood).

This is a little gem of a film. Tight, fun and down right surprising. With an Argentine city as its every changing backdrop, two con artists (of varying degrees of expertise....) hook up temporarily to sell a block of fake rare stamps. All of the actors are wonderfully directed and if you pay close attention to everyone you will be pleasantly surprised at the wrap of the film. Production values are very high and you will have an enjoyable trip! I viewed the DVD (Region 1) and it is excellent and the subtitles unobtrusive and right on.

...for those people that would miss this movie because it is with subtitles. This is an excellent, entertaining movie that if had been made by Hollywood it would have become a blockbuster for the only reason that it would be spoken in English... Well acted, including in its cast some of the best Argentinian actors; Darin is superb in his portray of a disgusting character that goes in the world betraying even his younger brother and asking his sister to go to bed with somebody she doesn't know when money is the issue. But it is not a drama, unless you have a brother like him in real life. Is a movie to enjoy. Be prepared to distrust even the air you breath. You will be rewarded.

Fantastic

One the better heist movies of movies that I've seen. This is very clever movie, and it doesn't bang you over the head with any of those ridiculous subplots or plot twist in your typical Hollywood heist movie (Unlike some Hollywood films that think they're clever, but there not). I found the ending to be a great surprise, and very rewarding. I didn't see that coming at all. This might the first film I've seen from Argentina, and I'm very impressed. This a foreign indy gem, and it deserves to be seen.

Very engaging with solid plot and exceptional acting. There is something for the plot-twist lovers as well. A must watch.
