The real struggle with Paco is that he started the whole gang. Heavily influenced them, especially Miklo to be for the gang. He was angry at himself the whole movie. For living with the guilt. Cruzito finally helps Paco accept it and move on. The ending is really deep once you understand the whole story.

Kill to get in die to get out

[@igemineye6225]

“Blood out”means you die the only way to get out of the gang. Paco and Cruzito was only with VL which is just a street gang, La onda was a movement and much deeper. Also Cruzito forgiveness took a while but his mom gave him a chance since she didn’t want to lose a second son. The last speech that Cruzito gives at end was all about how life can turn out different for everyone, even with Pacos hatred towards Miklo what could’ve been for Paco if he would of gone to jail, shit he was a leader for the VL then eventually became a cop, Miklo was a joke and always treated like that since he had blue eyes and white skin, eventually became the leader. Cruzito being the one with a craft and the one who could possibly be someone, became a drug addict and was the reason his little brother died. Life’s a risk.

Blood in blood out doesn't refer to beatings at all. It actually refers to killing a man to get in and the only way out is you shedding blood (dying). Aka there is no leaving the gang. This refers more to Miklo getting into La Onda in prison.

[@shadowdraqon2479]

Honestly tho, they(la onda) dont even need the whole “there is no leaving the gang” becuz if a person does actually quit the prison gang, they dont have protection anymore from their former members. So they would by default probably die from the other prison gangs anyways.

It's hard to be to hard on cruz for being a drug addict. Dude brutally had his back broken, was fed heavy narcotics to "solve the problem", then when the dr cut him off he's already addicted so he's gotta get his fix somehow. I know how the situation played out is horrendous and it's easy to be upset with him, but at the same time you know it's literally killing him inside because he knows it's his fault and there's nothing he could do about it. We don't have good methods to really help addiction now, go back 30/40 years it's brutal. His body was literally broken and to help him recover they broke his mind. It's not as easy as just quitting.

[@MozyReacts]

i don't hate on him for being an addict. I hate more so that it took a child dying for him to change his ways

[@tylerchambers6246]

@@MozyReacts It was an accident. He's partially responsible, but not entirely. People have gotten into car accidents that killed their child, people have lost their child to a gun in the home they owned that one day, for whatever reason, they forgot to secure properly, people have lost their kid after leaving their liquor cabinet unlocked by accident and they get into it, drive, crash, and die, etc. It's rare but it's a kind of accident that happens. What about a completely straight edge person, not an addict or drug user, that went to the doctor, got prescribed a bottle of oxy for an injury, for a broken leg or something, and then one day when they aren't around their kid gets into the medicine cabinet, takes a bunch of them and OD's and dies: because that's happened before too. Why was the kid so attached to Cruz in the first place, it's because nobody else was giving him the attention Cruz did, maybe if he had some more active people in his life he wouldn't have been so determined to emulate Cruz. There's nothing society or any of us can do or say to a person like Cruz that even comes close to the pain that he puts himself in with guilt, and, being an addict, that guilt and pain, combined with everyone he knows disowning him over what happened, just pushes him EVEN DEEPER into the dope. Maybe if our culture did not demonize, criminalize, and shun drug users and opiates specifically, Cruz's doctor would not have cut off his pill prescription and Cruz would have never had to resort to using street heroin to treat his physical pain, because nobody resorts to using heroin until their doctors stop giving them pills, and the only reason doctors come down so hard on the prescriptions is because our culture is forcing them to do so because our culture decided to blame opiates for all its problems: then the kid wouldn't have died after finding the heroin. There's plenty of 'maybes' to throw around in a circumstance like this. There's people in this world that have legitimate medical issues that cause them to live in physical pain- permanently. I'm one of them. Trigeminal neuralgia. They wake up in pain, they live in pain, they sleep in pain. That isn't life. It sucks the life and the energy out of your bones and turns you into a shell, an empty vessel just transporting a zombie consciousness around from point A to point B all day, and they are supposed to go on like that? To go on like that forever? What, are they supposed to do some guided meditation to overcome it? Some people actually do need opiates, on a daily basis, their life isn't worth it without them, and our culture, instead of demonizing them and their drug, needs to figure out how to fit them into things instead of pushing them away into the underground and into prison. For every loser fiend rotting on the side of the street with a needle in his arm that you can show me, I can show you a productive member of society who uses opiates medicinally, who would be lost without them, but no news or media is going to show you that guy, not one. Can you imagine a news channel running a story: "How opiates made my life worth living again"? Not going to happen.

Im late to this reaction but i noticed you mentioned the lack of guns, well the first half of the movie takes place in the early 70’s back then it wasn’t as common for LA gangs to carry guns like they do now, they fought the old school way with fist, knives, bats, chains etc… and maybe one or two guys would be armed with guns, it was a different time back then.

Cruz and Paco were stepbrothers. Juanito the kid that ODed was their half brother. Mexican families that come from these communities it is common to look up and admire criminals and mafia figures. There are family members that are addicts and you still love them. You got to realize that these kids go through so much before they are 18 that their bond is something stronger than regular families. And that's why forgiveness is common when most other families would just cut off ties.

[@-NOCAP-]

During the heist Miccanos had the drop on Paco. He had him dead to rights 5 ft away with a gun pointing directly at the side of his. He didn't pull the trigger because he realized that it was his cousin. So to repay him for not taking the shot he decides to not let him go but instead shoot his from being who just refused to shoot him. He should have just looked the other way and pretended he never saw him, he owed him at least that much. It's crazy that you can't see that. Not to mention Paco is the one who led him down the path of gang violence. Throughout Miccanos teenage years he worshiped Paco and everything he did was to try to impress him. So hypothetically you lead your cousin down a path of violence, they do 9 years getting caught up in some shit that you started, then while they're in jail you become a cop. You then run into them in the streets and they have a chance to blow your head off, they don't take the shot and you repay them by taking the shot yourself causing them to lose a leg and spend the rest of their life in prison. Yet you see nothing wrong with any of that? Where's the loyalty at my G?

"Blood Out" means death. Meaning you'll be part of that gang for life. The ending of the movie wraps up the overall need of belonging. Having a family. Cruz and paco got a family but Miklo is too far deep w/ his prison family.

[@mothmanifest]

The fulcrum point was that moment when 3P was tagging their alley, and Paco bullied Miklo into confronting them. “show me the color inside you.” He knew that was Miklo’s biggest insecurity. And the entire time Cruz was trying to stop it from happening. Cruz ends up being attacked and in chronic pain, which caused his addiction to opiates, and it’s all downhill from there. Paco tries to kill Spider and Miklo stops him but ends up getting shot and thrown in prison. All of Paco’s bad choices in the beginning drove the narrative of their lives. He did turn his life around but that was not the case for the other 2.

There slogan or way of life was blood in blood out. And Cruz went into drugs after his back broke . Great movie shows how life can change fast

[@Jaime16921]

Miclo went to prison for being the shooter/killer. Paco was pardoned since he only broke minor laws and was a registered recruit for the marines. Had he opted out than he too would have been locked up for a shorter time. It was great to see that cruz father was the one to shun him from the family and the stepmom was the first to forgive him. Also Paco and Miclo are actual blood related cousins while cruz and miklo are not. Juanito was the symbol that made them a family being related to all of them. His death represented their broken family.

If you have 2 parents of certain ethnicity, it doesn't mean all their ancestors were, too. The half this and half that it isn't, some genes are recessive, others genes or traits will pass yes or yes to the next generation, like a parted chin. Some stay dormant. Migrations happened always and after independence in Latin America countries, some migrants from all over the world arrived, some immigration were promoted too, it's not only Spanish and the different indigenous people, that without counting the ones that were brought by force from African regions, but also migrated later by their own. In Mexico they like to discriminate their citizens of African ancestry, but they have existed since colonial times. Japanese and Korean had an influence in Brazil, Middle Eastern immigrants had their influence in Chile, there are German descendants in probably all the Latin American countries, especially in South American region. Then in the US, you see couples of different ethnic groups, some famous people that's not Latino are considered as such, just because they have a Latino parent, not even culturally they're Latinos, but US standards consider them one. The actor Damian Chapa, Miklo, he has a Mexican father, but he lives the culture, so he's a Latino. The real life person that inspired his character, he was also a Latino, he had 2 Slavic parents, born in the US, he was raised in a Latin American neighbor and he also lived the culture, unlike let's say Jessica Alba, who only had a Mexican parent with some Mayan origin, Alba is Mayan, not Spanish, but Jessica Alba never had the Latin culture and she herself said she was considered a Latina in the US for having 1 parent from the region. Her mom was of West/Northern EU ancestry and she lived with her most of her life. Selena Gomez, Mexican father, Italian-American mother, the Romans expanded the original Latin culture, that came from an Italic tribe, the Latins, that was brought to the American continent, it mixed with the different indigenous and African cultures and Catholic traditions and that's the Latin American culture nowadays. Selena Gomez lived with her mom most of her life, raised as catholic, but decided to embrace the Latin American culture when she was an adult, so a Latina. I had a great-grandfather of Spanish origin who was blonde with green eyes from my father side, her wife my great grandmother was brown and Quechua, after that, most of my family is Spanish, Portuguese, Quechua, my mom used to have golden blonde hair when she was young, it darkened with the age. While me, my tone of skin is similar to the actor of Magic with dark brown hair, brown eyes.

Big Al soon changes his mind when he tells Popeye that he can "pay his debt with that" (ie, Miklo)... and if you look closely at Popeye's expression... you can tell the wheels are turning and he's trying to put his plan to turn Miklo out into motion.

[@ganmu3970]

If you rewatch the beginning of the movie, Miklo looks up to Paco, while Paco pushed Miklo into that style of life, he made him feel bad for not "having it in him", Paco taunted him to do that incident of breaking the Tres Puntos' car window, which led them to break the back of Cruz in revenge, a vicious circle. They were only supposed to beat up Spider, but Paco not only was the one marking Spider, he also brought the gun. Paco was a bad influence and he pushed others into that life, but he decided to change his path, so Paco is not free of sins. It was Miklo's decision at the end, but People influences the lives of others or even if they don't do it consciously, they can manipulate them, too, even the little kid that could realize if they act nicely they may get something from their parents. Cruz because of the pain on his back, he also started to use heroin, which that led to his younger half-brother to pass away. Movie is called Blood in Blood out, not because initiations, it's because like said before, it's what happened to the main actors, the eye for eye, paybacks happened. With gangs and mobs that tends to happen.

As far as guns back in early dayz they uses knifes not guns . They were teenagers in the beginning of the movie

[@izzyiz810]

Blood in is to beat or kill someone to join. Blood out is to be killed or severely beaten out a gang. Blood out was everyone that was hit by there own gang. Montoya especially. Back in our day guns were a last resort. This movie is based on a true story. This is exactly how gang warfare used to be on the east coast 70s n 80s too. The 90s was a mixed bag of 70s style and the way gangs are today.

[@AI-Actual.Intelligence]

Name is Miklo, not Mikanos. Lol the Greek version?

[@musoehcr]

There’s 100% Mexicans that have blue eyes and blond hair like some of my cousins and even my grandpa who doesn’t speak English has bright blue eyes

[@SteelCityProductions]

Just tuned in..u stated his accent blonde n blue eyes...in Mexico there's actually some places where full blooded Mexicans have the same blonde hair and blue eyes. Due to the Spaniard/European conquest

[@chicagonative1507]

Bruh I feel you on 1:24:33 yeah it was Cruz's fault that juanito died but it had been more than 10 years since his whole family left him alone in his suffering. There has to be a time you have to forgive that family member you've hold a lot grudge on for a long time.

[@tonysoto8949]

My dudes back then Juanito gravitated to Cruz cuz Cruz payed him attention and really loved his little brother who es his full brother from the same mother and father, it was the cop who was the step son from a prior relationship. Cruz snaps at his homie telling him he shouldn’t be shooting up in front of his brother then he sends his little brother upstairs to the house. Since Paco who was the cop never spent time with Juanito and was in the marines Juanito winds up going back down and doing something stupid and overdoses. Now of course Cruz should have put the shit away but alot if foos with broken backs or severe back or body pains used heroine to numb the pain much like Kirk Kobain who we all know killed himself while on heroine. It was a fucked up accident but aside from Cruz who else was watching this kid? It’s a family tragedy that even the parents should look in the mirror and say why wasn’t I there to watch my son. Cruz bore all the blame because he was a heroine addict and knew he had alot of blame for the tragedy and loss of his little brother who he honestly loved to death.

[@OmarsChannel661]

i liked your view on the characters, that sheltered innocent view 😂, i got the good and bad from each character but im biased since i grew up a similar gang influence life but i never committed heavy crimes, i feel likr i have more insights on the ppl you didnt like but i get where youre coming from, your truly a good person, dont lose that

[@OmarsChannel661]

and is not all about redemption, sometimes ppl are what they are and they chose that life, all we can do is do what we believe in and let them be, even if we are against them. we do us and they do them, balance of power

I like to see that there is still good in the world. Your innocense around these matters is a Good thing and good to see. Please please please dont ever do anything to end up in prison because you are right, you would never survive the life.

[@michaelhawk-fitz7563]

"what are grapes?"..lol..

[@Aacula]

I sort of wonder how much to blame Cruz for his brothers death. It'd be easy if he didn't care about him. It's more complicated though since Cruz clearly loved him very much. His carelessness almost seems more like ignorance to me than an actual cognitive disregard for his brothers safety. But I'm not sure.

[@BanduTheGreat]

Blood in Blood Out? What is there to understand? Blood in, you spill blood. Blood out, you die. You are one sheltered kid. Gods bless you. Hopefully you never find out otherwise. Miklo was an outcast the only ones that took him in were his gang brothers. Even his mom dumped him off. And if Paco hadn't been so hard on Miklo, Miklo wouldn't have gone to extremes to be like Paco. Paco is also responsible for Cruz and his problems. Paco was the leader and it was his influence that got Cruz in the gang. His injury lead to his addiction. I'm not gonna say it wasn't horrible what happened to Juanito and Cruz deserves the hate for that. However people change and Cruz finally redeemed himself. As far as Miklo, he did what he had to do to allow his prison family to survive he was a lifer what else could he do? Paco got lucky he didn't end up like Miklo. Miklo was on probation, so he didn't get a chance to join the Corps like Paco did. Both Miklo and Paco are the products of their institutionalism. You can point a finger and judge someone when you've never walked in their shoes. All it takes is one bad cop that won't care that you're half white to completely change everything for you. Hopefully you get to look down on others less fortunate for a long time.

[@digitalcomplex7723]

“Mika nose” 🤣. Growing up in the streets you use what you got kinda like what miklo said, it doesn’t just apply in prison you mearly adopt the same logic to it to survive. Some homes don’t always have a good family and others simply want to find something to call home even if it may seem wrong some people are willing to die for what they have left and Chicano’s know that all too well just like what Paco said “you have no idea what la raza means” miklo’s view is far different from pacos view and that’s what widens the bridge of their bond more and more. Blood in blood out; a toda madre a un desmadre; they both carry a high significance of the meaning. Sacrificing yourself for something you believe is worth more than your life. A cause a new bridge that shapes your destiny and that’s what it wants you to see in miklo’s pov and in pacos pov cuz like Cruz explained “he’s still just tryna be like you” and when he said “you got the same blood pumping through both your hearts ese and that’s a bond you can never break” they’re attributes are somewhat similar because they look up to each other in some way they’re the front and back sides of the same coin.

[@DarkAngel1985Mike]

In drug addiction you don’t choo,it just consumes you, i have an older sister that I looked up to but she became a drug addict after a few toxic boyfriends that got her hooked on drugs which is why i had to raise my 4 nieces and I didn’t have a social life in my 20’s

[@theov5212]

I just loved how you kept referring to Miklo as Mikonos 🤣🤣🤣 I'm Greek, that's why I found it funny. Mikonos is an island. But other than that. I'm really thrilled you watched and enjoyed this film. I enjoy observing other who are watching a movie I've seen. And I loved ever reaction you had

Actually with Miklo he had to choose a gang because prison is really hard for mixed people because we don’t fit anywhere so we are easy victims so we have to choose a gang to protect us quickly

[@ericnavarro9230]

No offense to this dude. I give him props as a person of non-latin heritage for checking out a film all about Latin/prison culture, but it's probably not the best movie for him to be reacting to without at least doing a little bit of research. He seems to be confused about everything going on and doesn't really get the whole message behind the story. I get this guy not understanding cultural things like the meaning of "blood in blood out" or even when he says, "why don't they just go to a tattoo shop," when Cruz is doing the stick and poke tattoo for Miklo in his room. Those are cultural things that not everyone's going to understand. That being said, there's just soooo many instances where context clues and details that help explain the story just fly over this guy's head and make it so frustrating to watch his reaction to such a great film.

[@michaelhawk-fitz7563]

dude you don't go to jail for being in a gang..none of these people are not seeing their kids for 14 years "just to be in a gang"..
