5/10
An interesting perspective on the poor education of many children.

Warning: Spoilers
"Young Delinquents" is an interesting movie to watch, because it is too surreal and has a lot of action written in each scene that is part of it, showing us different parts of a story of various characters.

At the beginning we see an exemplary father, who is too busy with his social work and with being accepted by a society that only seeks the judgment and value of each thing. Mario Almada plays a great role as a father thanks to his age and his way of interpreting these types of roles.

On the other hand we have the children, who are two sides of the coin, one hard-working and concerned about being a great student, always looking out for everyone in his home and the other son who only seeks unlimited fun and getting ahead at any time. Cost. Without knowing that at any second his life would suddenly change.

It has quite interesting scenes and themes that are little different from other films, however I think it offers the perspective of a reality and society that we always see but pretend that it is not visible. That's why I give it a 5/10 because it has the idea, it's just not as well developed, I also feel that it has a lot of action and that gives it a plus in favor of lovers of this cinema.

Mediocre. What else?

Utter piece of crap with mediocre action and dramatic sequences.

Well the title tells everything you need to know. So there are juveniles in the streets of Mèxico and who is there to stop them? You guess, Mr. Mario Almada who is a great actor but cannot save this crap.

The cast is atrocious except for Almada. The young cast is also terrible and I wonder why some of them got many t.v. roles.

The park scene is probably the best in this movie; dialogs, lightning, music, etc. Good sequence for the rest of the movie is crap.

Avoid it. I cannot understand why someone got nominated for acting awards for this horrible piece of crap.

Another example of how Mexican direct to video industry from the early 90's was mediocre.
