CGiii Comment

Some of the camera work is unacceptable - too wobbly, too erratic, too distracting.

It is surprising that Liotta - as executive producer - allowed this.

Equating violent drug-dealers with religion is an ambitious plan - unfortunately, it is neither intelligently done nor is it believable.

The other conflict between the gay and straight gangsters is even harder to swallow - and all this is going on while an assassin (Liotta) is having a breakdown.

It's not that there is too much going on - it's just not handled very well.

Shame - the premise is pretty damn good.

The(ir) Blurb...

The story centers around veteran assassin Mark Shields as he tracks down, Pelon, the elusive head of the Salazar Crime Cartel. Through twists of fate, Shields ends up with a local woman, Olivia who is also fighting her own demons for the sake of her daughter. Set in the rich and atmospheric backdrop of Tijuana, Mexico, La Linea (The Line) is full of action, drama and finds its soul in the plight of the characters that inhabit the most dangerous city in North America.
