Bordertown: The Mural Murders

The 2021 movie is worth watching, even if you do not know the series. It captures the attention from the beginning. The details are important and some situations are completely unexpected.

The totally predictable escape of the villain was so contrived it utterly ruined this movie. Somehow the villain goes from being a guy who kills by drugs to a superb martial arts fighter and weapons expert, while his handlers have obviously forgotten almost every possible rule about moving a likely escapee outside a prison The series of lucky breaks, rather than either persistence or insights, that lead the investigation also shows a lack of script writing skills The actors - well, they do their best with the rubbish hand they have been dealt.
