    Gee, theholeintheworld, I didn't even notice that some of the dialog is in Spanish. I guess that means I'm a cosmopolitan, eh?

      I totally didn't even notice that he was using that much Spanish. But I did find him annoying for other reasons.

          To me it wasn't his Spanish that sounded annoying, but his English. He sounded really retarded while trying to speak English.
          And I really respect Noriega. But he should stick to Spanish, English reduces his acting skills and his hotness.
          Everything is a version of something else.

            Mr. Noriega tried to flesh out a very one-dimensional character with few lines of interest by inserting phrases of Spanish into the dialogue which is supposed to make him more intriguing. His character ate, drank and had a bag of Chinese dolls. He hints that he's a bad boy and as soon as they are alone, tries to get into Jessie's pants in a church in the wilderness, although he knows she's married. That's all we really know until after

            he is killed. Only after Noriega's Carlos is out of the movie is it revealed to the audience he was a drug
            smuggler and killer.

              The only time I found Noriega endurable is when he wore that mask on Abre los ojos (Open Your Eyes). But I agree he was particularly unconvincing in this film.

                  He annoyed me too, but not because he put a couple of spanish words into the conversation, but because of his accent.. And the way he was trying to be such a "bad boy"

                        but in my opinion, this was just the Spanish producers attempting to emphasize Spain and its culture.
                        Yeah, if that were the case I don't think they'd make the only Spanish character a drug-smuggling rapist.
