Featured review
A documentary that doesn't go anywhere
Sure, the poster seemed promising. Unfortunately, what you saw in the poster was pretty much it.
I don't know what this documentary is trying to prove. It shows some mock infomercials that look like they wan't to make a point about morality, but it's just not there.
The interviews just make you feel sad about how much stupidity there is in both sides of the river.
The subjects are incredibly unrelated. What does Coke have to do with cloning? Or the "Euro vs. Dollar" fake trailer with organ donning? This film has no thematic unity. It's just a stream of consciousness that draws too many questions and too few answers. And, regarding your price, the movie doesn't tell you, not even show you how to calculate your price. They just say how much do body organs cost, which in turns is ridiculous to say, since nobody's going Frankenstein building a living person and shopping for different body parts.
With basically one narrator, the information is bombarded at you with kinetic typography so you blindly swallow anything he says. There are no sources, no statistics, not even specialists opinions.
So, were this two hours of my life a documentary about slavery? Organ traffic? A message against cloning? Does it say to illegal immigrants that they should stay in their own country or seek better opportunities elsewhere? Will the cream that turns your skin black ever be made? Will we finally see "Coyote Airlines"? I don't know! This man, Olallo, is a mediocre director and a hack researcher. He tries to sound intellectual, but his opinion is as sourced and mature as all the mixed nuts he's interviewed.
Trust me, the poster itself is enough to make it's point. The rest is a jumble of ideas that won't be worthy of your attention and won't make a tangible conclusion. It doesn't even make you draw your own conclusion. Basically, IT SUCKS! (and I'm Mexican).
