Review of American Me

American Me (1992)
7/10
Decent, but not really memorable
24 June 2002
Edward James Olmos had one of his best roles in this encompassing the violent nature of a Mexican criminal. While I always felt the violence was a little over-stylized, this proved to be one of the darkest Mexican films ever churned out by Hollywood. While it did have its problems, Olmos' performance, as is in all of his movies, really captured the power of this film. Sadly, there is very little else to say about this film simply because it really wasn't complex enough for my tastes.
