Cheesy Cliches and Tropes from a script writers manual
27 October 2023
We went into this one knowing nothing about the film and it quickly started delivering tired and worn out plot details without any insight or depth. I let a few go by to give the film a chance to find itself but they just kept on coming.

Salt of the earth farm workers, uptight and prejudiced company people, evil Russia and the team work to stop them from their evil plans, the right of passage to date the daughter of a strict family, the focused character who just wants to be an astronaut not 'getting' the importance of his wife's dream to run a restaurant?, on and on they kept coming, nothing original, nothing insightful, cheesy and bland, it could have been written and made by AI, it might have been better and more original if it was.

This was shallow mind numbing, IQ draining pap, If it was meant to be a morale boosting you can do it film for Mexicans wanting to attain their dreams it might have worked better if the characters weren't painted like a cliche caricature of hollywood Mexicans. I'm sure José's story deserves better and was better than this propaganda piece.
