Across the Line

Let's talk about social appropriation. This is the worst garbage movie I have ever seen.

Revealing who is good and who is ROTTEN. If you look deep and listen carefully you will see that it doesn't matter if you are related to somebody. It does not matter in the end because you can have a toxic family Dysfunctional Family full of wicked people and not even know it until one day you wake up and you realize they are guilty of a gruesome horrendous crime. And worse than that they justify it. So this movie will tell you that family members may be tied by Blood but not all in most cases are good people. There is such thing as toxic family and family members who choose the dark side and the wicked side and the greedy side. I will say one thing the character Brad Johnson portrays is excellent. A real man. A man of strong good morals. A stand-up guy. Dignity. A man of Honor and courage. Rare to find. Fabulous movie.

This is a fast-moving action film that has many twists and turns. It's a love story, a vignette of life, and a powerful drama all in one. A big bowl of popcorn and a few margarittas and you will have the time of your life watching this flick. Very well written, acted and directed.

I tried hard to make this a believable crime drama, buy couldn't. So I tried to make it a love story, but I couldn't.

It's just a mediocre 139 minute B movie. Period.

Across the Line (2000) is a truthful representation of both hope and corruption, focusing on critical events transpiring at America's border with Mexico and known both to those who live on the "line" (physical and metaphorical) and to those with the courage to cross it. Further it is a fine example of the filmmaker's art, featuring convincing portrayals underpinned by a convincing script and the directorial talent of Martin Spottl.
