TrueJoshNight Truly Dreadful Film

SparkMore n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

2freensel I saw this movie before reading any reviews, and I thought it was very funny. I was very surprised to see the overwhelmingly negative reviews this film received from critics.

Nicole I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

tprspan I just watched this film on You Tube, and I would have to say that this could have been a good one, but it has some poor acting, bad timing, and characters that were simply not developed very well. Many other things that take place in this film are simply not credible at all. The worst part of the movie though, was that the lead "coyote"(a term to describe the one who leads illegal immigrants across the border from Mexico to the U.S.) is portrayed as some sort of a hero, when he is actually a very despicable piece of garbage as a human being. I found his depiction to be an insult to the viewer. No wonder I never heard of this movie, it could have been good, with the theme of what illegals face trying to get across the border, but it was badly done.

sheelagrant This is a great film. It's true to life about what people have to do just to get into America to build a life for themselves and their family. The acting, directing, writing are all great. Cinamatically it's great too. I watched it more than once and will watch it again. I highly recommend this film. Granted it does not have the most happy ending. That's because it is a realistic film not a fantasy film. Gustavo Sanchez Parra (Amores Perros)does a very believable job in leading this cast of actors who are probably unknown to most American movie-goers. His work in this film made me very interested in seeking out and watching his other films. This is a great film to show preteens and teenagers for them to see what some people have to go through to attain the basic things many of us take for granted here in America. It really got me interested in studying the subject more.
