Okay, then “REMEMBER SAN JACINTO!”
Your reasoning is equally suspect; inconsistent.
Title of the movie is, “Man ON Fire” and while the movie takes place in Mexica, the real incident upon which the movie is based occurred in Italy.
Ok, man on fire, then but I don’t care where the real incident took place it is an insight into Mexican corruption. We know they are corrupt and that the police forces are corrupt. Nit pick if you wish, it is a good movie to watch and learn about mexican government corruption.
Ping.
Not nitpicking. Just trying to be informative. I have spent much time in Mexico and agree with your observations completely. And, yes it’s a great movie.
Hey-Hey!! There is a little princess in my house that resents that comment. Before I had one- I wasn't too high on them either.
I wish Teddy Roosevelt was President again and had Black Jack Pershing as his Secretary of Defense! Bush has become a total loss in this whole thing!
Wasn’t Santa Ana (Santa Ana Clause dela Genifer Lopez y la Migra) captured soon after?
Let’s see....
I last took the glorious Texas History class oh about 30 years ago. So, I hope you forgive me if I tell you I can’t remember.
Oh sure, that'll work! Let's legalize drugs. /s

The Mexican Army is a pauper's army run by the Mexico City elite -- it is the strong arm and collector of the old school secular central Mexico power structure -- but even as paupers they are painted into a corner, backed against a wall, "cortez-ed".
The cartels do not know what they are up against -- they are up against an entity, a social class, secular central Mexico -- the whole of the children of the Glory of Mexican Revolution -- that literally must destroy them to survive.
It is too famished to continue otherwise.
A horde of starving rats backed against a high wall versus vicious snakes and jackals.
Who knows who will win.
Please stop it, you’re killing me here. I’m still wiping off my monitor from the “station wagon” gag.
Hate to rain on yer parade, but it was a high-top brown and yellow Chevyvan
