A somewhat successful film about revolutionaries that has a distinct pattern. The farmers complain about their land being taken then the president does nothing Zapata and his pals hold a revolution always off screen than they celebrate eventually Zapata is made president of Mexico but even he finds he briefly misuses the powers so he holds one more revolution to a different end. A film that repeats itself over and over again but it is acted well enough despite the non Mexican actors, and interesting enough to watch once.
