I'm Not A Rebel

About This Movie

I'm Not A Rebel is a quirky take on the tumultuous backdrop of Mexico in 1968, where students are vilified. The film has this offbeat charm, mixing humor with an absurd premise—Mitch, this privileged Monterrey student, ends up hijacking a plane to save Beatrice from the secret police. It’s a wild ride, and the pacing keeps you on your toes, bouncing between tension and ridiculousness. The performances, especially from Mitch's friends, add a layer of camaraderie and youthful naivete that feels genuine amid the chaos. The practical effects, while not groundbreaking, lend a certain rawness to the stunts. It’s not your average comedy; it dances around serious themes but keeps the tone light enough not to lose its way.
