Pifias
When the president allows his grandson to command that the lights in neighborhoods surrounding their headquarters be deactivated at night time, not only do lights wired to the power grid go dark but also the headlights of motor vehicles which continue moving along as though their operators are not phased in the slightest by reduced visibility. Only the discharge of an electromagnetic pulse could potentially have such an effect, yet no reference is made such a methodology.

Violent without being graphic

A dictator and his naive grandson witness a revolution in the making. Neither seems phased by the reasons for the uprising. The grandson is obsessed with finding his friend Maria and the old man just wants to escape the country alive.

The tone of this movie takes a turn to the darkside about an hour into the film. It doesn't look good for either, but what annoys me about the boy is his naivete. He never seems to understand the gravity of his situation. He is repeatedly told by his grandfather to just cover his ears and eyes, and he obediently complies.

While the dictator is ruler of an unnamed country, I saw a resemblance with the old actor to Tsar Nicholas II as he would have looked had he not been executed when he was just 50 years old.
