Lenguas

About This Movie

So, 'Lenguas' is this quirky comedy-crime flick from '97 that really leans into its absurdity. The pacing is pretty erratic—one moment you're chuckling at some offbeat humor, and the next, there's this unexpected twist that makes you go, 'Wait, what?' The characters are exaggerated, almost cartoonish in their antics, but they feel very much alive. The practical effects are low-key but effective, adding a tactile quality to the story. There’s this interesting interplay between crime and comedy, which is not always easy to pull off, but here it has its own rhythm. It's not everyone's cup of tea, but it definitely stands out in a sea of more conventional films from that era. Worth a watch for the oddball charm alone.
