Garza (Omar Chaparro) is a good cop. When his partner is killed by the evil drug lord Santos (Erick Elias), Garza falls into a funk. Only the love of Maria (Aislinn Derbez) brings him back. But, when Maria is kidnapped by Santos, Garza is determined to get her back. Soon he realizes that he has been set up and he is thrown off the police force. But, nothing will stop Garza from finally getting Santos. He teams up with an unlikely Compadre, Vic (Joey Morgan) a young Hacker who has stolen money from Santos. Together, they track Santos, while trying to avoid the real authorities and others who want them out of the way. Will Garza get revenge and his girl?

This movie is kind of all over the place. But, it is fun and funny. There is plenty of action, even if it doesn't always make sense. Random people like Eric Roberts and Kevin Pollak show up in supporting roles - that probably tells you a little bit about the type of movie this is. There is a convoluted plot and all of the actors are easy on the eyes. A lot things are crammed into this film. Haphazard, a little crazy and action packed. Coud be worth renting if you like these kind of films.
