When his idyllic existence is brutally disrupted by a violent invading force, a man is taken on a perilous journey to a world ruled by fear and oppression where a harrowing end awaits him. Through a twist of fate and spurred by the power of his love for his woman and his family he will make a desperate break to return home and to ultimately save his way of life.

Saw the film on Sunday with a packed house. To put it into words it was violent but the violence was in context to the period. It was exciting and emotional. The film offers a dramactic story with a build-in chase throught the jungle that builds - it's exciting and fulfilling. Generally, I see the film doing very, very well opening weekend, but who knows how Hispanic audiences will respond?
