*** Oh so many spoilers *** Yeah. Hated it.
Okay. Maybe I have seen worse but after walking out of this, I couldn't think of one. I like the comment earlier that this movie was a non-linear mess. What exactly was this movie about? The best I can come up with is:
1.) Don't try to cross the US/Mexican border with your drunk a** nephew driving the car. 2.) Don't give young Moroccan kids a gun to play with cuz it could go really really bad. 3.) Don't commit suicide. It could really jack your deaf/mute daughters head up and she doesn't need anymore problems.
All of these happenings were very loosely related. Unlike, Traffic or Crash that also had multiple connected story lines, this one failed to be compelling, come together at any point or convey a strong message about anything. It was just pointless with so many very pointless scenes one after another and another.
Exactly at what point did we need to see a 12 year old boy masturbating behind a rock? I ask you, exactly what did that bring to the story or the character? It contributed nothing. It was just weird.
Exactly why was the Asian girl so desperate for love that she attempted to molest the dentist? What does that have to do with anything exactly? Am I really to believe that she was so distraught over her mothers suicide the prior year and her own deaf/muteness that it turned her to sexual desperation? She tried really really hard, folks.
Look, I'm no prude or anything, I like gratuitous sex the same as the next person but I'd like there to be some kind of reason that fits to the story...just because I'm odd that way. In this case there was no real story so I guess one could just throw in unreasonably weird scenes wherever they so choose, who cares, why not, when it's this bad it can get a whole lot worse...
What any of it had to do with the failure to communicate, I have no idea. It's completely wasted on me.
Don't even bother renting this one. Really, it's that bad.
