I had initially expected much more from this movie given its synopsis and the rating it had received. It really did have potential for something great, but it just ended up being a long, fairly uneventful and boring movie.
The story is about a Family traveling across South America, riding on top of a cargo train, in an attempt to cross into USA to start a better life. And it is also the story of a young man running from his violent gang past.
While the story itself is interesting enough, it was just poorly executed on the screen- And the fact that the 92 minutes seemed like an eternity didn't really help the movie along.
"Sin Nombre" did have some fairly good acting performances, and for most parts the actors and actresses did good jobs with their roles.
However, the movie lands a mediocre five out of ten stars rating from me, as it just didn't really entertain me.
