Top Critics' Reviews
Fresh: Sin Nombre is at once subtle and intense, familiar but refreshing, intimate even as it tells a story untold numbers have endured.
Fresh: Sin Nombre is pure filmmaking: a great story told in beautiful images.
Fresh: Rich details make the immigration thriller Sin Nombre vivid and haunting.
Fresh: The actors, particularly Flores, have a documentary reality about them. Their reactions to most of their predicaments, even the ones given away too easily by the script, are real in the most human sense.

What an amazing film experience-,must see!!
A strong and shocking movie about the realities of illegal immigrants and the frightening and raw "mara" gang subcultures...Doesn´t let go from the first minutes to the very end...hard to forget!! Can't wait to see it again, plus the actors are all outstanding. If you like hard realism in film, you'll like this.
