Let me start by saying I totally underestimated this film before watching it. Firstly, the actors looked awkward playing their parts, excluding Adrien Brody but including Lucy Liu. The material was definitely good, it's just that I was looking for more. I didn't like how they concluded some subplots, and some just fine. What I really like about this film is the execution itself. It is like a documentary presenting a relevant issue. I really appreciate the cuts, it totally made the story, the message, clear to me.
A film worth watching.
