Good movie, but...

Rating: 7/10 (16 September 2007)

This is definitely a good movie, but not as good as the critics and all the awards would want to make you think.
So why all the hype? Simple, the movie deals with a subject that is "in" and is also very politically correct. Nowadays, that is all that matters. If this movie was made 40 years ago, it would have been shunned by the mainstream and branded as one of those eccentric 'art' films (because at that time it would have been politically incorrect). If it was made 20 years ago, I don't think many people (or critics) would even have noticed it's presence....
Anyway, a good movie about an interesting topic that I can recommend. Just don't expect too much.
