Konterr Brilliant and touching

Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

Lollivan It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Mabel Munoz Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

mister-rube El Inmigrante is a great documentary. It focuses on the tragic shooting of a young man who wanted to come to the USA to make a better life for himself. The immigrant is shot in the back while fleeing from a white-man who refused to give him water. The film includes details about the man's family and situation. His normal, everyday family gives testimonials and interviews. It also follows the trial of the man who shot him and the lack of justice served. The soundtrack is great and includes music by such bands as Explosions in the Sky. Regardless of what your feelings are about illegal immigration; you will be touched by this story.

trex-19 This documentary takes the viewer into the Mexican home of a man shot on his way to a "better life" in the U.S.A. It does a good job of showing the emotions of the man's parents and numerous younger siblings as they are interviewed in their home and fireworks factory. There are interviews with Border Patrol Officers, vigilantes peering through binoculars, local law enforcement agents and city officials, but none of these people are responsible for the man's death. Instead, he is shot by a doddering old man and allowed to bleed to death because he knocked on a door and asked for water. Superb editing and musical choices keep the viewer interested in learning more about this man's life and the impact his leaving home and his violent death has on his family. The film does not offer an answer to the immigration problem but, rather, shows how it affects human beings on both sides of the border. I want to see more work by this team.
