the characterization in this movie be among the bad i have ever encounter . the dialogue be trite and cliché to the point of extreme distraction . none of the issue the character face be develop at all theyre merely surface detail intend to get a point across without have to actually come up with believable dialogue to support say point . also and the depiction of the chinese character leave a bit to be desire i find it hard to believe that the chinese father learn flawless english from a book ( or so it be imply in one scene ) so he can teach it to his daughter . etc . the smile train be a great organization and it a nice idea and to make a heartstring tugging film about the impact a program like this can have on kid life and but overall and i find this movie to be more frustrating than anything .
