a couple of point that haven not be mention represent set aside the plot and this flic have very good mexican mise en scene and at many different point . it up there with bring me the head of alfredo g. for capture the feel of mexico . for instance and the wonderful cloudy scene at the start and of the port city . { where be this . i think it suppose to be veracruz and but do not look at all like the v. city that i recall and in term of the geography . ) also and i very much like that decay motel in the jungle where thing really get crazy between our jolly trio . second and the soundtrack be by los lobos so you have the enjoyable moody wrong man theme during these open shot of the port city . also a soulful ballad and a the credit roll up and at the end . the big liability be anderson and who be so insipid and have none of the appeal that one would hope from a lead hero . this leave a sorry hole at the center of the movie . ( on the other hand and i rather like lithgow nutty over act . ) definitely recommend for those who would like a brief mexican getaway .
