After comitting fraud in several countries, they are attracted because of a high-value reward: a hard disk that belongs to a well-known politician. Although it is widely believed that this genre may be quite boring, the film is really absorbing since its beginning until the end. Besides this, it could be said that the screenplay is unexpected.

However, after having watched it a second, fourth, eighth time, what I really felt was anger. Each time I watched the film, the anger and disgust would grow, so much so that it pained me to watch it again. However, in identifying the cause of my anger, I began to realize many things.
David O. Russell weaves all of these strings, with good help from Linus Sandgren's great camerawork, very nicely together into a dynamic, melodic, multi-dimensional and intelligent entertaining movie, which by no means lacks a final decisive scam with everyone included.

It is a film inspired by a book that explores botany

The narrative of any film must have certain ‘key conventions’ which are apparent for the audience to tell the genre of the film. The narrative can be used to provide an explanation as to why the film contains certain things, or why a character does something.
It should be noted that the way a film is planned, designed and the environment and culture in which the film is acted are very important in understanding the theme, message and the purpose of a movie. A poorly planned movie or film, for example, may not pass the right message.

These destitute settings not only make one impose characteristics on the characters living there, but it also reinforces the idea of widespread poverty in Mexico. Media has a compulsive tendency to portray Mexicans as violent criminals uneducated, drug dealers or extremely poor. Since the characters against Welbach possess some of these attributes, it is extremely easy to believe they are the bad guys and cannot be trusted. When one first views this film, it is inevitable to assume that the groups of Mexican locals trying to retrieve the gun are criminals.

...movie that I fell in love with. But most of all I love how the story line is a great overlap into the cinematically engaging movie.
