Rating: 7 out of 10, A movie that
aimed at Traffic territory by creating a series of eventually interlinking plot
lines generously peppered with some very good actors. I hadn’t heard of this
but felt compelled to learn if the Alice Eve Star Trek bikini was CGI or not.
That would be a definite “not”. While Ms. Eve’s generously displayed talents
were remarkable enough this wide ranging story about illegal immigrants and
their different struggles to remain in the USA was kind of “ehh”. Tough to make
a young Muslim girl who defends the 9-11 terrorists as a sympathetic character
but the rest of the stories were interesting. Harrison Ford plays a decent man
trying to do the right thing as an immigration officer despite rules against
same. The ending “bridge” to bring all the plot lines together was kind of
forced and completely unbelievable but there were a number of nice moments.
MVP: Alice Eve proving that stuffed
Star Trek bikini was not CGI
