I get it:
American audiences don't like dubbing
American audiences may not care for subtitles
American audiences may not know or care about Argentina and its history
American audiences aren't (even to this day) ready to watch a film in Spanish.
This film is the U.S. remake of an Oscar winning Argentinian film, but it just doesn't work as well. In the original the thriller/drama plot is deeply connected to Argentine's history and soccer crazy society. Here it doesn't translate as well and we're only left with the murder plot. Watch the original and if you don't like it watch something else. No need to watch this.
