3 out of 10 Multiple stories inter-twined
Alan from Dublin, 19 Mar 2011
Multiple stories inter-twined in the Los Angeles / San Diego area, all revolving around immigration issues. A bit far-fetched, some string political points made, and the Harrison Ford storyline is a bit too over-played, probably because he is the big name star.

4 out of 10 Good film
Anthony from Kilkenny, 08 Sep 2010
Moving story touch subject with usa, good performance from ford and penn but i'm a bit bias when i watch a film with either of them in it. enjoyed this film although it may leave you with a sense of frustration on this serious subject

4 out of 10 Deep and thoughful
Chris B. from Mayo, 18 Jan 2010
More a report of different situations around immigration into the US. Spured some thoughts and definitely increaed dislike for the american bureaucracy and handling of these issues.

4 out of 10 Well impressed
Joanne from Tipperary, 17 Feb 2010
Alot of different stories happening in tandem. In the end it all comes together. Very moving. A nice change from the usual scripts.

What's it about....
Immigrants from around the world enter Los Angeles every day, with hopeful visions of a better life, but little notion of what that life may cost. Their desperate scenarios test the humanity of immigration enforcement officers. "In Crossing Over," writer-director Wayne Kramer explores the allure of the American dream, and the reality that immigrants find--and create--in 21st century L.A.
