Narate (Rated: 6)
"You have one thing money and practice can't buy - you look like a nice guy."
Halfway through I wasn't sure if I was into this but I am glad I stuck through with it because the third act was worth it. You can't trust anyone and the twists are great. Diego Luna is also so likeable!
