I liked this film because it I think it was an accurate portrayal of how Pancho led his folks against the evils of the American government. I believe that Pancho was a hero because he fought for the rights and freedoms of the Mexican people. You can say that he was like a first class freedom fighter. That's just putting it lightly but the point is that he stood up and fought the United States tooth and nail because he hated what was happening to the Mexicans! I believe that Uncle Sam was trying to turn Mexico into another state but Pancho would have NO PART OF THAT! As far as I know, he simply wanted Mexico to be remain free, on its own and as far away from American influence as possible. Of course, that was a daunting task, even for Pancho. Others who've seen this film may beg to differ. They may look at Pancho as a villain who betrayed the Mexican people. But since I can only speak for myself, I think he fought FOR the people and NOT against them. If he fought against them, then trust me, the Americans wouldn't have gone after him to kill him. Furthermore he wouldn't have made so many enemies like the way he did throughout his tenure.
But..... however........ this is why I gave this one a 7 out of 10.
