Boring and too long (SPOILER)


Just finished it.
I was very curious about see this movie but was a great disappointment.
Endless and sometimes useless dialogs, action and interesting parts are throwed away like the Cochiloco and Benny's deaths, the shooting at the supermarket, or the gang revenge just to leave more space to other dialogs.

The story was good and actors were ok but 110 minutes of dialog in 145 are too much. In some parts was like see an South American soap opera with some violent (nice) parts to keep awake the audience.

Agreed. I don't have the patience to sit that long and neither does anyone else. I was getting agitated watching this movie because instead of people illing each other they where talking instead.

True that. I have traveled the world for for the sole purpose of observing people watching El Inferno. The dialogs was too prevelent and the movie was not violent enough to hold peoples attention. everywhere I went and everyone i observed watching el inferno told me the same thing; movies should not include so much dialog. they couldn't keep up. some people watching in mexico even started smoking meth in an attempt to not immediatly fall asleep once people in the movie started talking to one another.

good post thumbs up
