Grade: B+

Country: USA

Director: Hood

Review

spoiler warning. not as powerful as it could have been, but a strong film nonetheless. good performances across the board. the film’s structure, though, provides the most interesting element. we see a few different storylines running in what we are assume parallel tracks, but it isn’t until the end that we realize that one of those storylines hasn’t been on the same timeline as the other two. rather, it’s ending is essentially the beginning of the other storylines. viewing this particular storyline without knowing that we’ve already seen its conclusion makes the revelation of that fact all the more powerful. especially when we think of the implications that has for the egyptian father/politician. the structure alone is worth watching the film.
