a day without a mexican contains and quite possibly and the most unique and effective employment of a fantasy element i have ever see . while i be not sure how much impact this film have on people who aren not from and or at least very familiar with and life in california and i think it speak massive volume all while maintain a very witty and fun sense of humor about itself . while it get over dramatically silly and it be spot on about the capability of californian behavior ( and i say that a a third generation southern californian who be raise and in part and by a german or mexican stepmother ) . i have notice complaint about bad acting and or or write in this film . the write itself be strong and the dialogue be funny and and the cultural joke be border on perfection . the act do leave room for improvement and but that standard in independent film that boast such a major societal commentary . this be not the kind of film that go to mean everything to everyone . it gear toward a specific audience and which seem to include me and a i quite enjoy this picture . if you want a movie that will and at the very least and raise some discussion and check it out .
