Evengyny Thanks for the memories!

AniInterview Sorry, this movie sucks

Nayan Gough A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Aneesa Wardle The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

TheWoodyMan03 Imagine hating your own race so much that you are willing to fight against them. This is what Adam Fields life is like in The Gatekeeper.Adam Fields is a border patrol officer, whose goal is to prevent Mexicans, whom he hates with a passion, from illegally crossing over into America. He is so passionate and committed to his cause that he decides to go on an undercover mission (proposed by a Mexican Hate group he belongs to) where he wears a GPS device so that they can understand how Mexicans cross the border. ***SPOILERS***I really liked the journey of the main character. His acting was incredible in the sense that in the beginning you could relate to and begin to rationalize his hatred of the Mexican culture and people, but at the end you really saw a change in him.Despite the great acting on John Carlos Frey's part, this movie did not rank high in my book. I would describe this move as dull, boring, and slow. It had a good concept, but the writing was terrible. It could have been really suspenseful and entertaining when Adam was faced with making drugs for a year to work off the trip. The writers also could have developed the part where Adam is discovered as being a cop. Sure, this would make the movie a little more "Hollywood" but a movie should at least provide some entertainment value rather than just trying to abstractly make a statement. Overall, I give this movie a 6 out of 10, strictly because of the acting and message.

rac415 Ok, this is not a great film. It was shot on digital video in 18 days, with a budget of 200,000. However I scored this a 9, because it has more heart and passion than anything Hollywood has put out lately. It should be seen by everyone, especially if you live in a border state. It starts off with some truly awkward racist remarks that will make you squirm. Honestly, I was at first turned off and considered leaving. But stick with it, because after about 15 minutes you will be hooked. Low budget be damned. The director actor star should be applauded and rewarded for bringing this labor of compassion to the screen. It is an important issue, and my eyes were opened.

Jorge Bernardo Well, I liked so much about this movie...I was captivated, I was compelled, I thought the acting was tremendous, I was into it hook, line and sinker, and I think the filmmaker should be commended for an amazing job on a shoestring budget. I think most audiences will adore this film. Best of luck to "The Gatekeeper".
