Review of Sex Traffic

Sex Traffic (2004)
4/10
Important message, too long in the telling
26 May 2010
Warning: Spoilers
Very important story, adequately conveyed, and the acting was good enough. The content could and should have been compressed, and the final relationship is predictable. Director had a hard time convincing this viewer that the main male character, a nerd and not very bright one at that, could get the job done. Perhaps that is why the presentation takes so long, and I felt obliged to fast-forward during the slower passages in the second half in particular. The plot suffered from the heavy-handed treatment of the American company trying to rebuild war-torn infrastructure and thus, people's lives. Some of the best acting came from the character of the betrayed American wife, and the female lead was consistently good throughout. A minor problem (by no means unique to this production) was a brief London traffic scene with vehicles traveling on the right side of the road.
