Review of Crossing Over (2009) by Jennifer L — 30 Jan 2010
Glad I saw the preview for this movie, because otherwise I would have never picked it up, but it was well worth watching. A thought-provoking journey into the immigration debate and portrayals of real-life people that live it everyday.
I was surprised that it was pretty much a fair portrayal, though it was overdone at some points. I appreciated the underlying concept that you should become a citizen the right way in order for things to work out best, while still showing that immigrants are real people just like us citizens and deserve a better life.
Not necessarily a feel-good movie, but one that gets to the heart of the issue to make people on both sides of the debate reconsider their positions.
