    Think Again

    Greetings again from the darkness. Documentarian Mary Mazzio presents an inspirational and terrific human interest story ... in the first half of the film. The second half veers off into a one-sided socio-political editorial that, as frustrating as it is, doesn't dim the light from the magical first half.

    Narrated by Michael Pena, we learn the story of 2 teachers and 4 students from Carl Hayden Community High School located just outside of Phoenix. The students are sons of undocumented immigrants (illegal aliens) attending a school with 92% of families living below the poverty line (90% Hispanic). The area is riddled with gangs, drugs and depression, making the journey and accomplishments of these four all the more impressive.

    The group enters a high level Underwater Robotics competition sponsored by NASA and Naval Research ... in the collegiate division. If this were a Hollywood script, it would be outlandish and unbelievable. Instead, it's true and fascinating. Two amazing teachers (Fredi and Allan) lead the four: Lorenzo (the funny one, driven by a Hooters dream), Oscar (a natural leader in any group), Luis (the quiet dependable one, the muscle of the group), and Cristian (the brainiac computer geek who is a loner). With a total budget of $800, the group proceeds to work together to design, build and test their entry, affectionately known as "Stinky".

    When they arrive in California, they realize they are competing against colleges ... in particular, the team from MIT (with Exxon sponsorship). Simply competing should have been victory enough, but we see actual footage of the awards ceremony with the announcement that the group comes away with much more than a participation ribbon. Their spirit and drive was no longer just inspirational, but now they had results to go with it.

    The talking head approach works here because we get to know the four boys and the teachers. We also get plenty of face time with the MIT team and some judges. The insight from all of these people helps put this in perspective. Quite enlightening is the 10 year reunion between the MIT team and the boys who beat them a decade before. The life paths of these 8 display a clear distinction between the economic haves and have-nots. This is where the film's focus should have remained post-competition.

    Unfortunately, we are taken on a trip of activism and the movement for undocumented students known as the Dream Act. Too much time is spent on the politics and protests, and not enough on the positive aspects of the legacy these boys and the teachers left for the high school, and a generation of students that followed. We are told that of the 2 million undocumented students in the U.S., 49% will drop out of high school. This leaves the impression that all 2 million are similar to these four, never once providing any insight into those who choose gangs or drugs. Focusing on one segment, is an injustice to the issue as a whole.

    The best message is that determination and drive and teamwork can accomplish a great deal, and that it would be wonderful if every student could explore their own talents and interests. It does make one wonder if this economically disadvantaged group can accomplish this, what limitations is the impact of the rigid structure within public education imposing on other students. If a group of ESL students in the middle of the desert can compete against the brightest engineering students at MIT ... all students should know the possibilities are endless.

    Fantastic, heartbreaking, inspiring

    I saw Oscar Vazquez on The Colbert Report and thought his story sounded intriguing. So when I saw this On Demand I ordered it, and couldn't be happier that I did.

    It was so good that I had tears in my eyes for most of the second half. And I would suggest that anyone that can watch this with out feeling profoundly disturbed by the immigration situation in the US probably has a heart made of stone, or is just not a very good person.

    If you feel strongly that immigration is on track to destroy society as we know it, you should definitely watch this. Maybe watch it twice.

    Also, please try to always keep in mind the following: if you are a US citizen, and your DNA isn't 100% Native American, then guess what; whether you like it or not, YOU are the product of immigration!

    This is the first time I've ever done a review, but I felt this film really needed a positive one, as a lot more people should watch it. Also, I don't often give a film a 10/10 but I think this qualifies.
