5.0 out of 5 stars Fabulous, March 16, 2008

This is an incredible movie. It's common to run away with the circus not from it. Without giving away the plot, I'd like to say this movie is absolutely haunting. Other reviewers who think it weird have no artistic vision. See it!

3.0 out of 5 stars Not bad just not good., March 24, 2004

On the cover of this movie it says "One of the 100 best Mexican movies of all time". I certainly don't agree. It's not that it's a bad movie it's just not good. But then if you sit through the first 20 minutes you know this.

I'm all for character development, but develop the character, don't just linger over images of them. Throughout this movie my fiancee got up regularly, left the room and came back to discover that nothing had happened in the interim.

There are many shots of nudity, some of it even seeming a bit gratuitous. If you're offended by this don't bother as they are sprinkled throughout the movie. But then if you're bothered by that sort of thing why are you watching a movie that starts out with incest?

The only extra the DVD has is filmographies for the three main characters and the director. Also the translation on this disc is way off in some spots ("Senor" does not translate to "God", "know" and "now" are different in English, Etc.).

3.0 out of 5 stars Somewhat disturbing, February 27, 2003

This review is from: Angel de Fuego (DVD)

A young teen lives and works in a circus, as a high-wire trapeeze artiste/fire-eater. She is extra close to her father, so close that she becomes pregnant to him.

He dies, and she is forced to either give up the circus, or her unborn. She chooses to go onto the streets. There she meets a woman who travels about healing people and acting as some sort of voice for God.

Then the film gets weird!
