You won't be disappointed!

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.

It's a low-budget movie, so... the special effects were lame, some of the acting made me wince, some of the shots were too dark, some of the editing was confusing, etc. I'm not entirely sure why the movie was even made, although I haven't yet tried to find out, aside from just watching it once. Was it to make a statement about the UN in SE Asia? Or about how certain families pass corruption from one generation to another? Or did the writer feel like the underlying story was just too good not to make into a movie (I thought it was OK, but nothing special)? In any case, don't be expecting a masterpiece, but it's really not too bad considering the limitations.There's some violence, but not much blood or gore. I did love the way the girls' being on a soccer team gave them a chance to momentarily put their skills to use in a couple of scenes. (I don't want to say more if you haven't seen it yet; you'll see what I mean.) I'd rate it a 3 overall, but probably more like a 6 for low budget films.
