Plot Summary
A pair of professional thieves find their complex plan to take a millionaire and popular television guru for all he's worth complicated by the fact that their old crew wants no part of the high-risk job in director Joe Menendez's tense crime caper. Emilio (Miguel Varoni) and Alejandro (Fernando Colunga) have hatched a plan for the perfect crime, but in order to carry out their caper the diabolical duo will need a crack crew who can stealthily inject themselves into the inner circle of their wealthy mark. Moctesuma Valdez is a man of power with many personal servants, and if Emilio and Alejandro's team can simply assume the guise of gardener, maid, or chauffer, they will be in the perfect position to strike when Valdez least expects it. When the skilled members of the regular team all reject the plan, Emilio and Alejandro are forced to hire "real" immigrants to get the job done. From electronics expert Julio to father/daughter transportation team Rafa and Rafaela and skilled disguise artist Miguelito it seems as if all of the elements have come together, but what to make of a crew who has all of the qualifications and no actual criminal experience?

Top Critics' Reviews
Fresh: This film is like Ocean's Eleven if directed by Robin Hood and financed by Telemundo.
Fresh: The con they carefully plan is perilous and close to impossible, but the outcome is surprisingly heart-warming and satisfying.
Rotten: Comic touches are obvious and broad, while helmer Joe Menendez lacks the essential energy for a vital heist entertainment.
Fresh: It's refreshing to see a bit of escapism that takes place in contemporary Southern California as seen, and lived, by those uninterested in aping the Ocean's 13 vibe of ice-coolness.
