Not all good movies managed to get US distribution. This one, only played in Columbia and France, but it is still worth the time to explore.Victor (Daniel Giménez Cacho) is a bum journalist who drinks too much and mourns the fact that his wife left him. He gets a deal from the Police Chief. In exchange for writing a speech, he can investigate a man who was impaled.He teams up with Estupiñán (César Mora), who is trying to find out where his brother is. Their investigation is reminiscent of Chinatown, in that they are having great difficulty, as we the viewer are, in sorting out the good guys from the bad, as gangsters and politicians and civil servants all appear to be involved in a crooked land deal.Along the way, he is joined by Quica (Martina García), a prostitute, and just about the hottest think out of South America since Selma Hayek. Their adventures take them through a nudist colony, and, before it is all over, crawling over many dead bodies.The ending should be surprising, but it is to be expected in this climate of corruption.Well worth viewing, and not just for Senorita Garcia.

This movie is one of the most horrible experiences of my life. With once having sat through twelve hours of constipation, I have yet to sit through a dump that was more excruciatingly painful than watching this Colombian film. This movie was seriously the worst movie This is the stuff nightmares are made of. Don't go see this under any circumstances. If your significant other wants to see this, fake your death. Anyway you can get out of this movie is truly a blessing. Martina García terrible actress, Really BAD I do not recommend it. As they throw that amount of money in that? The history of corruption in Colombia is very repeated on Colombian films. Bad Actors This was a stupid, horrid, and dull-plotted movie. Do yourself a favor and do not make the mistake I did.

First at all I want all people who read my posting to know that I am Colombian, my second language is English and I would love to write my thoughts in Spanish but since the forum's rules are English here I go:I want to say that the movie is wonderful, Sergio Cabrera amazed me because he proved himself that he knows how to create a masterpiece and not only tragicomedies related to football and guerrillas, I could notice that there are many Colombian stories that can be told without have to appeal to our main flagellums( guerrillas and drug traffic). An amazing story was told, the director emphasized in the character of each one of the actors, with the movie's budget I think it had very good special effects, fabulous edition, excellent soundtrack and incidental music. To me it has been one of the best Colombian movies ever made and I hope they keep producing projects with the same quality.

With "Rosario Tijeras", "Perder es cuestión de método" is one of the most expensive movies in Colombia's history. And one of the worst.I can't believe it: you have at least 3 million dollars, a great team, great actors, a huge publicity machine, more than 25 years of cinematographic career, and you made this "movie"...I'm Colombian (proud of), but I can't lie: there is at least thousand better movies in Colombia. And when I see movies of Majid Majidi or Takashi Miike or Jim Jarmush or hundred of great low budget directors I just feel envy: Why in Colombia we can't make high quality movies? I hope I can be alive to see the first great Colombian movie.
