Review of Crossing Over (2009) by Greek-God — 06 Jan 2018
Crossing over is a multi-strand drama telling a mixture of stories involving the US Immigration Service. All the stories are interesting, with some being more powerful than others.
The film is strongly cast - Harrison Ford, Ashley Judd, Ray Liotta head things up - and well performed, with the acting accolades going to some of the performers lower down the cast list: Summer Bishil as teenager Taslima is a knockout, and Alice Eve as Aussie Claire is also very good.
There are good points made, and made well, and the film benefits from the fact that many of the characters are morally ambiguous. There are no glib, easy answers.
This is film is entertaining, interesting, occasionally very heavy duty, and worthwhile.
