A movie about racism that doesn't point an accusing finger at anyone.

Rating: 10/10 (19 September 2005)

Top notch storytelling, direction and acting make this a movie that will leave you wanting more movies like this in the future. The movie is set against the vibrant yet sinister backdrop of Los Angeles where people of every possible race pit their lives against each other in the pursuit of a living. The film deals with the complex and completely believable relationships between a host of credible and finely crafted characters and manages to paint a canvas larger than the sum of its parts. In the end the film leaves you to make your own conclusions and makes you realise that racism is just one facet of the complex lives of its characters. There is simply no simple answer to a problem that is mindbogglingly difficult to understand. Bravo!
