- RWentworthJune 25, 2025Sin Nombre manages to paint vivid and complicated characters in a few masterful strokes, while also presenting a larger story of brutality and tenderness, of gangs and families, of love and kindness and belonging. Shot brilliantly, Sin Nombre's tableaus of widescreen countryside by train are a perfect complement to its grounded, humanistic storytelling.
