    If I told you that this film contained just some of the following; teenage lesbians, a paedophile housemade, corrupt policemen, murder, robbery, false imprisonment, a loyal dog AND a magical fish boy who lives underwater then you would tell me that I was dreaming.

    But I was not dreaming...although I did fall asleep.

    El Nino Pez contains all of those things and still manages to be duller than an evening with me cataloguing my Morrissey records. Honestly.

    However while it may been dull you did get some beautiful cinematography, solid performances and an idea for a really good film...maybe for once the remake will be better?
