I'm always in the mood for a nice mistaken-identity comedy. This one is a comedy that begins with a bout of danger before the plot takes the protagonist into another world-- like "Some Like It Hot" or "The Wizard of Oz"-- but throughout the plot, the danger is never far away and we're repeatedly reminded that it's a real-life danger-- the danger that comes with being an illegal immigrant. The audience expecting a formulaic comedy will find one here, with some nicely phrased dialogue, stock characters, and familiar situations, but the actors sell it all successfully and the script swings elegantly between farce and dead-serious social commentary.
