The Sinaloa region was, and remains, the heart of poppy cultivation in Mexico. Historyīy most accounts, the Beltrán Leyva brothers began their criminal career working in their home state of Sinaloa with small-time opium poppy growers. But by 2021, it is no longer a relevant player, although some splinter groups still lay claim to the name. The Beltrán Leyva Organization (BLO) experienced a void in leadership, due to the death of Juan Francisco Patrón Sánchez, alias "H2," in 2017 during a shootout with Marines, and the 2014 arrest of Hector Beltrán Leyva, alias "El H." During his time as leader, El H strengthened an alliance with the Zetas in an effort to stave off elimination following a bloody battle with the Sinaloa Cartel. Once one of Mexico's most powerful groups, the BLO is now defunct after numerous arrests and murders. If you don't mind a slow dramatic film, gymnastics, and Nick Nolte, this film is for you.Led by the Beltrán Leyva brothers, this Mexican drug trafficking organization worked with the Sinaloa Cartel before the two split and began a bloody war in 2008. She has very little airtime, but at least her role is pretty important.In the end, this can be a moving film, but it will only cater to certain people. The beautiful Amy Smart is really underused. His philosophical words actually starts out pretty interesting, but as the movie goes by it becomes old rather quickly. While his acting is good, his dialgoue isn't as great. Some people may not like it, but most people should appreciate it.Nick Nolte really carries this film with his performance. The ending of this film is probably the most dramatic part of the film and the final shot ends the film nicely. I've seen better shot films, but I've also seen worse. Well, maybe I'm over exaggerating a little bit. The nice camera work takes what could be mediocre shots and turns them into pieces of art. While this film is slow and a little bit boring, it does add a tiny tiny dash of science fiction into the mix, which will keep your interest from time to time.The cinematography also helps this film a lot. A successful example of this is Cool Runnings. As mentioned earlier, this film is based on true events, but it is OK to twist and turn the story a bit to make it funny and entertaining. This is what will probably disappoint people the most. While not as entertaining and comical like other films based off of actual events, this film is still an inspiring movie.The story moves along really really slowly.
