For those who appreciate the quirky style of Jared Hess

Rating: 8/10 (16 June 2006)

Critics haven't much liked Nacho Libre, but viewers will. Hess, who served as a Mormon missionary in Northern Mexico where the movie is filmed, has created a movie that has a character all of its own, and it's a character that is true to the people who are portrayed. I think what critics don't like is that, this movie has its very own style. It isn't formula. It doesn't have what every other movie has, so it may be judged inferior. It will appeal to those who enjoy seeing something different who can watch a movie just to be entertained. Don't scratch your head trying to figure it out. Just watch it and enjoy its uniqueness. This movie is destined to be a favorite of those who appreciate true creative talent.
