Plot

It tells the redemption tale of the Padre (Tim Roth), a rehabilitated convict who is on the run from his dogged pursuer and father-in-law, a United States Marshal Nemes (Nick Nolte) and his hired local police officer Gaspar (Luis Guzman) in Colombia. A precocious teenager, Lena (Valeria Henríquez), is a stowaway with Padre who hopes to reach Minnesota. She blackmails and befriends him for joining his journey. The duo plans both a heist and getting away from vengeful Nemes.

Reception

Glenn Kenny of RogerEbert.com awarded the film two stars.[5]

gollark: You just stand in the frame, type a destination into the teleporter, hope that the other end is chunkloaded, and get teleported to the other end, assuming it didn't randomly break and strand you forever.
gollark: I abused spatial IO, the multifrequency ender chests from that ender chest mod, and ComputerCraft to make teleporters.
gollark: Bee statistics continue to mildly improve.
gollark: (the drones in each apiary are genetically analyzed (with cheated honey right now, we plan to upscale) so it just has to check the metadata on them over the network)
gollark: μhahahaha.
