Awful dialogue, terrible performance, epileptic camera movements, plenty of WTF moments and a tired plot make this an entertaining, laughable crime B-Movie.

MCT:April 20, 2008Tomando en cuenta que es una pelicula de accion, no nos tomamos en serio ciertas cosas como que madrean a un tipo ochenta veces en el mismo dia y puede correr mas rapido que spiderman... ni tomamos en cuenta que los super mercados estan abiertos a las dos de la mañana o que nadie escucha una platica gritada en plena ciudad. Okay, si hacemos eso al lado, Sultanes del Sur es una gran pelicula de accion a la mexicana. Muy buen experimento... Tony Dalton y sus ideas. Yo creo que en este intento Hollywoodense les fue muy bien, y pues el elenco en general es muy bueno. Es entretenida y como ya dije, para no tomarse en serio. Pero de Lozano-Dalton, me quedo definitivamente con el maravilloso humor de Matando Cabos.

This action-flick starring "Matando Cabos" stars Tony Dalton and Silverio Palacios and directed by Alejandro Lozano goes from Mexico to Argentina in a fun, exciting ride. It starts as a fantastic crime movie with wonderful, wicked performances and mischiveous characters. Jordi Molla really stands out in what's probably the best supporting performance of the year (seriously!)... unfortunately, after the thieves get to Argentina (their goal is to exchange their stolen dollars for argentinian pesos), the plot starts to flop and the characters lose their wickedness and sort of untouchable attitude and become regular guys doing unrealistic stuff. For example, Ana de la Reguera is supposed to be a gorgeous femme fatale and she actually gets into character... until they get to Argentina. Silverio Palacios is funny as hell (once again) as the only one that is down-to-earth and doesn't buy all the Big-time-thief shit from the others and we love him!... until they get to Argentina. Tony Dalton is the only one that supports the film from start to finish as a bad/good guy with issues... and thank God Jordi Molla **SPOLIERS AHEAD!!** doesn't stay too long in Argentina, just for a scene or two, **END OF SPOILERS** so his character NEVER fades and becomes the real deal in all of his scenes. The visuals are great and the cinematography is beautiful, the screenplay is not original but is entertaining... even in Argentina. The twist at the end is actually kind of funny but it feels too false and unnecesary. It ends everything so quickly and abruptly that it doesn't seem right. And, you know what? The car chases are actually not better than the ones in "Matando Cabos", Lozano's first movie and Dalton's first screenplay (he repeats here, all by himself), and the humour is missed, even if this was specifically created as a crime-action-drama, far away from "Matando Cabos". Anyways, the movie is great and flows fast: it's definitely better than your regular northamerican action mess. Alejandro Lozano is a great director, and Tony Dalton writes really good screenplays, but this one needed a little more time in the oven. Best scene? What a about a fight in a supermarket with supermarket-weapons? Hilarious and exciting!

MCT:January 15, 2008Se siente extraño ser la primera persona en escribir acerca de esta pelicula en flixster. Pero en fin...
"Sultanes del Sur" quiere jugar con los chicos de hollywood mediante una propuesta generica y comun de lo que es, a final de cuentas, una pelicula de policias y ladrones.
Cuenta con un presupuesto mayor que al de la mayoria de las cintas mexicanas, y no hay duda que es entretenida. No le recomendaria a nadie verla en el cine, pero como para rentar no es mala idea.
