Purely Joyful Movie!

Nice effects though.

Fresh and Exciting

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

After Davis took the other guards hostage, it was just one unbelievable scene after another.At no time did I believe Flores would do the things he did. Especially after he knocked out Davis and got the gun (and even up until then, there were too many WTFs)The acting was solid, but the script was just awful.It was just one unbelievable scene after another.And then the tacked on poor ending wrapped it all up. The 5.8 rating is a little high, imo.

First thoughts were, this is gonna be a low budget, lackluster film, without any big-time actors. Luckily, I was wrong. It's by no stretch of the imagination great. I could hardly call it good even, but there's just something about it that kept me intrigued.With the exception of Clifton Collins jr., who I really first noticed in the experiment, I didn't really recognize any other actor. After a couple name searches, I remembered Gabriel Luna from Harley and the Davidsons. I've seen quit a few movies johnny Simmons has started in but he just doesn't stand out to me.Plot was good. Story line was good enough to keep me interested. Felt like there were a lot of "are you serious" moments. Especially in Gabriel Luna's part. Can't say what I'd have done in his shoes but I'd like to think it's not what he done. Also felt like the ending was rushed and then they realized they still had 15 minutes of film left or something so let's just throw something in there to wrap this up. Overall a pretty decent watch. Not something to write home to the family about but a little hidden gem if you will amongst over-hyped films that fall short.

I rarely get a chance to catch a movie these days, so when I do I want it to be pretty spectacular. Transpecos was just that. The story line started twisting and turning from the very beginning and really had me thinking "What would I do?" The moral struggle these characters all went through during the 24-hour period really helped showcase such different perspectives we all can have. Things aren't always black and white, and the gray area Transpecos showcased was so well done and kept me on my seat the entire time. And then you hear about all of the research and history behind making the film and it makes it even that much more fascinating. Those characters embody real people and real stories, stories that myself in my "city bubble" will never come close to understanding. Thank you for telling such a great story!! Can't wait to watch it again!

three u.s. border guards in a desolate part of new Mexico looking for drugs being smuggled into America. things go terribly wrong and that's when the story gets going. this is a little movie and should be enjoyed for what it is. the three actors, all new to me, were very good. I can't give away too much, but I can say that it's a drug deal gone bad and one of the guards is in a lot of trouble. the story is convoluted, yes, but the way it plays out is very effective and intense. even though it's only a movie, I was very much on the edge of my seat, in anticipation of something bad happening at any minute. this is greg kewdar's first film directing and to me it's not unlike "hell or high water", which is quite a coincidence.
