La propuesta

...has made a movie you cannot turn away from; it is so pitiless and uncompromising, so filled with pathos and disregarded innocence, that it is a record of those things we pray to be delivered from.

...et påfaldende stringent arbejde, der blot lader som om det er løst og improviseret fremført.

...the proposition is a heavy conceit about setting kin against kin in the name of saving the soul of a nation built on criminality.

...it’s as tough and bloody a movie as you’re likely to catch this year. It’s also one of the best.

The performances all strike a perfect note.
