This movie, crossing over, is rather complicated. It is a lot like primer, in that you will want to watch it more then once to understand it better. Many people after watching this movie have said "this movie has no point" they are looking for someone to blame. Those people do not grasp the point of this movie.
If you really think about this movie a lot you realize you cannot grant sympathy to any of the individuals or blame any of them either, which is quite realistic. I mean you really understand the people who did wrong yet you don't feel sympathy for anybody in this movie. I mean you don't come out hating Harrison Ford for how he enforces this immigration policy because Harrison Ford questions himself and feels bad about what he is doing.
Then think about the relationship with the girl, she didn't like what she was doing but she was coerced into it so at first you are hating that guy but later on you sort of feel sympathy for him because he said he wants to change and he went to jail to, so you really don't hate him. You cannot place blame on anyone.
Then there is the young Asian boy who ends up shooting up a place in Korea town, you don't feel distaste for him doing this because he was coerced into it and then you don't feel sympathy for him because what he was doing was very clearly wrong.
These people are basically all victims of the system and the system itself needs to change so that these people do not have to do these things and go to these heights to get a green card. Immigrants should not be oppressed as they are in this movie because in the end nobody comes out right.
I really think the movie Crash is much more fun then this movie and I would much rather go see that again then this if you haven't seen crash I recommend seeing that before this. I give this a 6/10. I mean it isn't bad but it is inferior to crash in many ways.
