I cannot believe I stuck with this through the end credits.
It is so awful.
It could have been a touching and heartfelt story about a woman who left her children and never looked back. And now must somehow find a way to welcome them into her new family.
But, no, instead we are server with a horror show.
It took me a long time before I understood why she felt so threatened by these 2 strangers coming around.
Once the 2 strangers are identified, we enter an entirely implausible situation.
She freaks out, seeming almost demented about the man and young woman who begin to invade her space. But then her 2 children become friends with the strangers and the mother is nowhere to be seen. And the father has no objections. Not likely. Especially having the girl over.
Also the boy and the man become friends. The man seems to be training the boy to be tougher . Together they attack a student from the boy's high school, who has been bullying him. What they do to him is horrific, probably a murder. But there is nothing mentioned about the attack afterwards. The bully did not report them to the cops? He was killed? Who knows. We will never know.
The very last minute, literally, is very satisfying.
I think this film is somewhat racist. The full Black ones are animals, and the mixed race ones are civilized.
