If you loved El sustituto, try FX: Efectos Especiales
Un puente entre una película que ya has visto y una que casi nadie ha cruzado. Esto es lo que comparten, y lo que la segunda hace que la primera no hace.
Lo que comparten

What FX: Efectos Especiales is
Late autumn Manhattan. A strobe from a Times Square billboard flickers against the rain-slicked windshield. A freelance FX artist gets pulled into a sting—fake a mob boss’s murder for a government cover-up. Then Washington betrays him, so he stages a second death, this one real. The trickster trapped by his own illusions.
