Falling for Sahara was a budget movie and you can really
tell. The so called 'actors' portrayed African youths growing up in Australia
facing problems like racism, family expectations and stereotypes. The director
Khoa Do added football into this 'movie' which is irrelevant to the whole story
line. Every film Khoa Do makes has football in it, what is his obsession with
it? The story line behind this film is not something I would pick up at video
easy but has a good measure of themes and characters issues. If they gave this
movie more time in writing and had a better budget It might not make me so
bored that ripping my eyes out sounds fun.
This Sahara girl is a
liar. After finding alcohol she and
Ramsey drank it, just after telling Ben that she didn’t drink. Why would she do
this? Also the ending to this movie was confusing and not in a good way. What
was on the letter? Why did she come back? And Was he just imaging her? They
didn't clear up a lot of confusion throughout the movie. The only compliment I
have for this movie is the sound track. It has good music and it really suits
the movie and where the movie is filmed. Just because the film industry gave
them a small budget doesn’t mean that
they couldn’t have made more from things like fundraising.
Even though there are
some good themes and messages in this story/ film, they are not expressed in an
interesting way which will make viewers watch the movie again. They really need
to work on the story line and the way they make characters act. I don’t believe
that people in the characters position would really act or behave the way the
characters act/ behaved in the movie.
But they do show very important issues that young migrants
might face like culture troubles, not feeling like you belong and family
pressure. Lots of people face problems like these but this just shows a
different side of the problems we all face.
I give this film a 1.5 out of 5
