Well, the acting is quite okay, the cops and the main male role excepted. Cops' roles were not difficult to play. They are as inconsistent as Tom Wilson, the policeman, in The Chaplin's 'Kid'. Cruel for Tom, I know. But the worst has to come. Miguel Herrán would have been more credible in the role of a lift boy than in the role of "Angel". The actor's play is weak and definitively inadequate to his ability to embody such a role. There was room tho to be able to play an Angel full of doubts, a human being made of strengths here and weaknesses there, joys and sorrows. Herrán would find none of these throughout the whole film, which can be described, I can't deny it, like a poor achievement. The biggest issue of this film is the lack of almost everything in the script: imagination, suspense, tension, etc. And tell me what remains when none of these basic key features are present in an action movie? Not much, right? This is what you get after the screening of the film. The good surprise comes from the female roles: all are quite credible (female cop excepted of course). And you knew it already.
