AniInterview Sorry, this movie sucks

SnoReptilePlenty Memorable, crazy movie

Stevecorp Don't listen to the negative reviews

znsmiley This film was really good but who thought it was a good idea to end the movie so open ended???? American films always find it cool to leave the audience wondering. Touching love stories, friendship, father/son tumultuous relationship but no one knows what happened with the maid and the gasoline, does David live or die?

rui-li2010 This film has involved a few topics that intrigued me: border illegal immigration, struggle of 1st generation immigrants (Greg & Marta), law enforcement racial profiling (Greg), gay coming of age (David and George), adoption family (George), etc.The story had a terrific beginning and background set up. But then there are so many signals and story lines that audience are watching a diary, a soap opera rather than a film. The plot of the film was so loose. The real issue or truck mystery keeps getting ignored until the last 15 minutes. It lacked the build-up of tensions and the opening of that trailer was just unprepared. Marta walked into that trailer full of what was unexpected (I don't know why she did, while the boys were doing nothing there). The camera work and cosmetics for that trailer scene was very very poor that it could not bring any emotion out of audience. I am so very disappointed. I still give the film 6 out of 10 because I think the boys were good looking and good actors. They could've done so more with those intimate scenes. For god sake, tell one story well - not 10 stories poorly.

Paul (myzipcodeis) I agree with the poster who said a 4-hour miniseries would have been better. There are several issues addressed in this film, but the runtime precludes developing and bringing each issue to culmination.Having said that, there were indeed some great segments: of course, the boys discovering what was really in the stolen truck tops the list (actually, from that scene to the end of the movie). While the loss of virginity scenes (gay and non-gay) were excellent, for me the true highlight was elsewhere: the hands giving presents through the hole in the wall. Second would be George sitting on the stoop, talking to his sister. The father-son "fag" scene is another nice nugget.Watch the movie. Just understand that too much is attempted in too small of a time.

garyvh-1 I agree with the previous review who asked if we were watching the same movie. I kept waiting to witness the vigilante portion of the movie and must have yawned and missed it.Outside of the final 10 minutes of the movie, you can go outside and do something more useful.My guess is that the movie was supposed to show sympathy for those crossing the border illegally to enter the country but I never felt any sympathy.The acting was acceptable but the storyline was anything but interesting. In case you missed my review... don't bother!
