Guardian

Some of the intended moral heft goes astray in the heat and dust - but this is still a promising dry run for bigger things.

Rated: 3/5

Brad Wheeler

Globe and Mail

A taut 86 minutes of moral dilemmas, a drug deal gone wrong and a very bad day in the lives of three border guards.

Rated: 3/4

The Hollywood Reporter

Artfully made but wholly accessible for a mainstream audience, it features strong performances but no names in the cast who'll draw attention on their own.

Silver Screen Riot

A potent border fiction that matches high tension thrills with significant characters, played to perfection by Johnny Simmons, Clifton Collins Jr. and Gabriel Luna.

Rated: B+

The Gate

Sometimes keeping things as uncomplicated as possible can be an asset to a twisty, sparse thriller, but in the case of Transpecos that mindset is a major hindrance.

San Diego CityBeat

Eventually, it comes across as a toned down Sicario offering very little beyond veiled cynicism and beleaguered attempts at social relevance.

Make it a documentary showing how hopeless it is on the southern border with cartels into everything. As entertainment this movie is only good if you're too happy and want to get depressed really quick. Good acting, great landscapes who really cares it's just a bummer to watch.

It was a surprisingly well acted, compelling movie. I didn’t recognize any of the actors before looking them up, but I was very surprised at how good this low budget film was. I would definitely recommend

Transpecos is a low-budget/no-celebrity movie done right. The fact there are no recognizable faces works in this movie's favor, as we're not distracted by the big names and find the actors more like real people. It is artistically crafted, but also exciting. The characters' decisions didn't always make sense to me, particularly Flores, but the characters themselves were well-rounded and believable. This will satisfy fans of both art-house films and action films.

This movie proves what a creative indie filmmaker can do with a limited budget. Not that Transpecos looks cheap; the cinematography and direction are top notch. Three Texas border guards have the worst day of their lives when stopping a car at their remote desert station. I won't go into detail; suffice it to say that you will pay attention. The suspense is palpable /white knuckle, because we care so much about the characters and their moral / legal dilemma. Gabriel Luna's performance is perfect. He makes us feel his pain. Don't dismiss this one as another Texas desert crime movie. It's something special.
