[edit] Needs major editing

The film basis part reads like an essay that someone wrote, including cliff notes and personal opinions... Replacing it with a regular movie summary that someone can add to.

It needs a better plot summary.

Here it says Olmos applied for and was granted a concealed weapons permit; if you look up the Mexican Mafia it says the permit was denied? What's the truth? What else in the article is false? --Freepablo 08:30, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

Well, I placed that info in the article at one time and I think I had a source for that. I'll do some research and see what is going on. Can you please place a reference about what you mentioned. If the info came from a web site, well do they have a neutral source re that piece of information. Let's not jump into hasty generalizations about the article from one potential problem area. We'll get it straight. Off to dinner, and I'll work on it when I return. Oh yes, when writing on the TALK page good grammar is expected.Luigibob (talk) 00:51, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
