I saw this late night on tv when I was 12. It made me want bandanas and to never go to prison.

Was a great fucking film, suggest others that are older than 27 and have the patience for a 3 hour film to watch it. A new top film for me, even if there were some cornball bits, and the white guy doing his brownface chicano routine was kinda hilarious, it was still a fucking awesome flick.

Maybe this had an impact 15-20 years ago when a discount Goodfellas-feel and bad acting (Damian Chapa step forward) was enough to impress. Still kind of epic in its own overly melodramatic kind of way.

This movie should not rate nearly as high as it does, but for some reason this movie worked for me. It's overlong clichéd and overly familiar in parts, but damned if it wasn't fascinating. The acting is hit or miss, but there are some memorable performances and scenes.. A lot of familiar faces in supporting roles.

Operatic, but the ridiculous, over-the-top kind of operatic. Epic in scope, the execution is fatally sabotaged by the awful dialogue, and a lot of hammy actors running wild (plus it looks like 80's TV). Virtually all lines are delivered with some or all of the following: a) grunting, b) yelling, c) snarling, or d) a sing-song caricature of a Mexican accent. The end result is a bit like a chicano "Caged Heat" with guys instead of chicks. There's a good movie lost in that material there somewhere.

Originally the director's cut spanned 5,5 hrs! Now it's 3 and we can see why he originally chose 5,5 hrs. He doesn't manage to tell a story in a 3 hours feature that other directors tell in 90 mins. Lousy narration here, at best fair performances. What renders this movie interesting still is the connection to the real story of "la eMe". My best guess is that the director is too close to the real thing that he cannot decide to drop that plot or this scene that so. close might see indispensable.

As the name suggests it's about honor, finding where you belong in life and "familia", all old style. I remember loving this movie when it came out and I won't rewatch and ruin whatever is left in my mind.
