Great movie, like all the movies of the director Marcelo Piñeyro. It also has very good actors: Leonardo Sbaraglia, Eduardo Noriega and Pablo Echarri.

It's worth see this film, based on a true story and very well done.

4.0 out of 5 stars This is not just a "gay" movie..., Nov 25 2007

This review is from: Burnt Money (DVD)

Yes, the gay relationship portrayed within this fictionalized version of a true story is very important and very poignant but it is not a film just for "the gay crowd" - it is a film for anyone ready and willing to confront the realities of society and the tension created by a brilliant film director. Frankly it is almost too strong. I felt emotionally drained for several hours after watching the DVD. Do not watch this film unless you are prepared to consider answers to the questions it presents.

5.0 out of 5 stars Burnt Money, May 21 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Burnt Money (DVD)

The tempo of the movie reminds me of that of Monsters Ball. I only saw this movie because of the director, but i am glad i did. Don't expecte to see hardcore porn in this film. There are only a few scences that barley qualifies a partial nudity, scense were do tastfully. The film is about some important power figures in Argentina who plot a risky heist and higher three men to do it. They end up killing 3 people to gain 7 million dollars, but in the process one gets shot, leaving a trail of evidence. Thus they are forced to flee to Uraguay, where they are on lock down to aviod anyone reconizing them. They hide out till thing cool down in Argentina. Mean while the main characters "Angel" and "Nene" are having problems. One is confused about his sexual identity, and his mental state of mind, while the other becomes frustrated. As a result he seeks comfort in a women he meets in Uraguay. In the end things fall apart, thier wear abouts are discoved, and make a run for it. conflicts arrise, identities and friendships are questioned, and tension rises. The ending is a bit much, but it works, and will leave you in awe.

This is not just a movie for homosexuals, believe me, I'm about as straight as they come. This is a very stylish interpretation of actual events that took place in Uruguay and... Read more
