Poor script with too much improvised dialog

[qui_j · 2/10 · 18 March 2021]

This movie had a lot of potential because of the theme, even though it's a theme that's been used in many films before. Unfortunately, the script is poor and padded with far too much improvised dialog. In addition, the long brooding shots of mango trees and other vegetation, and patches of silence really add little to the story. A more thoughtful script with meaningful dialog might have made a world of difference in engaging and involving viewers.

Subtle, immersive, moving

This is a subtle movie that doesn't follow all of the rhythms and tropes of a typical movie. But it was beautiful, gripping, moving, and simultaneously an immigrant story and the tale of a family barely held together. And the movie takes the time to allow you to live and breathe in the family's world.

No substance, no storyline.

While the movie is short compared to others, the time is not taken advantage of. So much extra footage of irrelevant things, very poor dialog, no real story or substance (purpose). No climax, very flat story. It seemed like at home footage of a family of 3.
