“Director Gerardo Naranjo's film opens with a bang: aspiring beauty queen Laura Guerrero (Stephanie Sigman) falls innocently into a violent Mexican drug ring. What to do? Gerardo Naranjo's riveting expose of border drug lords unfolds as an action drama, but doubles as documentary with a sobering disclaimer: hundreds of similar casualties occur daily in drug-ravaged Mexico. The film - Mexico's 2012 submission for Best Foreign Language film - may have few answers, but its study in What Would You Do? survival tactics will grip you. Miss Congeniality it isn't. ”
