 Rating:  - A Day without a Mexican: try it if you're against illegalsHaving grown up in Texas, I could understand the situation in California. In the movie (which is a romp), the governor succeeds in a law restricting immigration. The result is chaos: there is no one to pick fruits and vegetables, so there are food riots at the grocery stores. The Hispanic teachers disappear, so the schools have to close. There are no more maids... do the math. But it's really witty. We are a bilingual nation, and should have agreements with all Latino countries. -Anne ...

This movie sucked. and not even a "campy" bad sucked. it's like "artsy fartsy indie" sucked. I was hoping for a carlos mensia(sp?) esque funny, mock-u-mentary about what would happen if the west coast was without mexicans for a day. instead it's this really lame psudeo sci-fi plot filmed by a guy with 10 grand, 20 friends, and a digital camera. it's so boring that i literally gave up on it 35 minutes ...

While much of it is simplistic and sometimes the reactions of various characters strain credulity, the movie is saved by the delightful and engaging performance of its star, Yareli Arizmendi, portraying a second-generation immigrant with (she believes) Mexican roots who doesn't disappear when everyone else does. ...

Rating: - hitting a little too close to home This movie was excellent. Hilarious at times, sad and moving at others. Done in a mocumentary style and centering on several different people from all walks of life. I see and hear people behaving like racists just like the people in the movie. I think that for many people this movie probably hit a bit too close to home, thus the 1 star reviews. I think this movie should be required viewing. It gets its message across without being heavy handed a la spike lee. |
