Ladrones - Fernando Colunga, Eduardo Yanez - Movie Review

Spanish-language TV star Fernando Colunga returns as Alejandro, who ends up taking on one such cause, but with his old partner Emilio now working for the FBI and unable to join him, he hooks up with Santiago (Yanez) to be his new partner in crimes against criminals. Their mark is against a woman named Miranda Kilroy, whose family has spend over 150 years being the primary landowners in a small Texas settlement whose rights were stolen away by one of her ancestors, who was willing for the land grants that claim the property under the feet of the ranchers who were there when the land was part of Mexico because they couldn't provide proof that they owned the land. The Mexican-American families who rightfully own the land are being bilked by greedy entrepreneur Miranda Kilroy, who has stolen the land grants after a gardener discovers the documents hidden by her great ancestor showing them and other families in the area to be the rightful owners. Miranda wants to evict the Hispanic families and raze their homes to build a large commercial complex that includes an opera house that will allow her to sing in it every night she chooses. It's up to Alejandro, Santiago, and a ragtag group of local folk -- a chemist, a computer hacker, a spiritualist, an actor, a storyteller, some knock-out beauties (every con man wants to use a distraction, after all), and a young lad who claims to be impervious to pain -- to get those land grants back and put an end to the Kilroy family legacy that has kept so many other families down.
