Bodies of victims from rape and murder are discovered in Juarez. Cinematography was impressive while the story compelling. Honest performances from Banderas and surprisingly from Lopez. Its target is the FTA (Free Trade Agreement), murders of innocent female laborers, political agendas and lack of attention by the countries mentioned. Special features were insightful such as the death threats, creation of the film and more. In most cases business and revenue seem more valuable than human life or morality. Bordertown is one of the most horrific real life films this critic has seen and is an underrated picture of corruption, massacre and deceit.
