I really liked this one. I could best describe it as a Pulp Fiction in Spanish with English subtitles. Matando Cabos is actually a play on words which translates to Killing Cabos (Cabos is a character in the movie) If you take away the M from Matando it reads 'Atando Cabos' which gives it a whole new meaning: Tying loose ends. It has all the elements of a Tarantino movie, Bodies in trunks complete with first person camera shot from inside the trunk, use of drugs, swearing, guns, severed body parts, the frequent switching of time, events, and perspectives, interesting characters and plenty of dementedly funny situations. I highly recommend this one. I give this one a B+ [thumbsup]
