On the other hand, the film shows immigrants what happens to them if they come illegaly. When they come illegaly, they will get caught and deported, even if it is not at their own expense. The problem seen on the film is that it shows the circumstances as being comic. The film could possibly be blamed for showing ethnic racism. The film made a parody out of a reality.
People really do struggle to get into the country.
People really do work and only get paid pennies. Situations featured in the film really do occur. For example, the Border Patrol raid, the running across the canyon to try to outrun the officers, the gathering of immigrants and loading them onto a bus to ship them back to their countries, these are realities. To people who have to endure these situations, it is not comic. A feature film depicting the story of rock and roll star, Ritchie Valens.
