Inventive character-study disguised as heist movie, based loosely on Mexico’s most infamous museum theft. Blend of many genres works for and against the film at different times. Ultimately Bernal's hapless protagonist can't keep the shaggy narrative engaging, despite every layer Ruizpalacios gives him.
