Not the most fun or uplifting movie. Full of nasty messy humans. Feels preachy and yet it's hard to get quite what they are selling, since everyone in the movie does something at least mildly evil. Although it's hard to damn people for shouting and cursing considering what else went on.

Also, I think it's possible that cars are the source of more trouble than the little green slips of paper or the digital watches. Maybe a ban on them would help. At least on Lincoln Navigators.

Another thought is that this was the non-musical non-funny version of "Everyone's A Little Bit Racist" from Avenue Q. There is some statement about stereotypes, but I'm not exactly sure what it was, and some of it was wasted on shock value. Almost everyone has some trouble with their English and I'm certain anyone stood up for their own "race".

The DVD has nearly a dozen trailers on it, starting with the one for the score (excellent) and the soundtrack (interesting) and then going through quite a few movies including a fun-looking Spanish movie (Killing Words? Palabras Encande.. ).
