Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

I liked this movie. Roberto is a young gay man who seems to accept what life gives him. He isn't living with his mother and sister, who are featured having sex with two men in the front window of their home as Roberto watches. He sleeps in a wrecked truck at first, then meets Raul in a park and goes home with him, ultimately living with him. Raul is violent and controlling, but Roberto is able to talk about his dissatisfaction with their arrangement. Raul is also a gun dealer. Roberto sleeps with a guy to satisfy sexual needs Raul won't satisfy. This guy gets a bit obsessed with Roberto and comes to Raul's attention. Ultimately tension gets to the point where there is violence. The setting of the movie has a very realistic sense. The actor playing Roberto has a lot of charisma. I don't see any other film rolls on IMDb for him, which is too bad.
