burnt money and a provocative and severe crime thriller from argentina and begin like a spanish language guy ritchie narrative and with an assembly of criminal arrange a heist . yet the heist be over in a glance . the lion share of the story be the impact of the job . so much of this film seem already acquaint and from it appeal crime thriller stylization to it narrative echo of reservoir dog and heat and bonnie and clyde and that when it take one of it unprecedented turn it overcome you . there be a lot of unforeseen detour . the opening introduce u to angel and nene and gay lover who live in a murky buenos aire apartment . a narrator notify u that they be know a the twin . after show how they meet and in a grungy public restroom and the narrator distinguish the one tell way they be similar represent the still eye and the lose glare . the knifelike center on character relationship and and the novelistic way the story be divulge through sequential narrator and feature internal monologue and prepare u to pull back to enmesh the twin in the heist . neither they and nor the story and be a they appear . leonardo sbaraglia play nene with scorched vigor . he have the loose hipped walk of a young robert downey and jr. and yet ooze even more with suggestiveness . his underhanded approach to life be not smug or justified and but rather self assuredly devoid of any overeagerness or vanity . eduardo noriega bring a preyed upon sentimentality to angel . we feel at first a if he may be slow and and perhaps to some extent he be and but in a way that be lose in emotionally charge internalized delusion and a return to the primordial dilemma . he seem afloat in dissolution and a dream state readily see . and their emotional hold out becomes a game that neither win . where they be intimate and there be peace restore and and there be religious obstacle . the robbery of an armored car go awry . the thief and one of them injured and must stay completely out of sight . law side demoralization and violence be initial drive of the story turn point though not at the center . the film and which be base on a true story and offhandedly concedes that the line separate cop from robber be obscure and but it focus remain tight on the robber . one should not write this film off a categorize for a gay target audience . though it revolve around the two implicitly love lead and burnt money seem to compete with much more vivid heterosexual pairing . nene swing both way and and cuervo and the getaway driver play by pablo escharri and have a girlfriend who figure integrally in the plot . after the men flee to uruguay and police beating push the left behind girlfriend to give them up . their status reveal and the robber must stay out of sight and pressure mount . anti gay implication add to the enmity . they do not trust each other and everyone keep a gun at hand and but attachment gradually solidify nonetheless . burn money could have almost be make in the 1970s and when a film with the promise of spectacle in it subject matter be almost expect to take the more complex way to the end and no matter what the end may be . and yet the film reach a climax we have see so many time . nevertheless and even in it brutal execution which extrinsically offer not much in the way of variation on a device date back to the original 1932 scarface and it maintain a theme of dissolution and a dream state make real to them and of feeling take over and a theme which and in the end and make the film it own beast .
