Aaron Eckhart plays the neighbor; a married father to an adolescent boy, apparently so devoid of any morality, he readily becomes a willing pedophile with the 13 year old character, Jasira.
Like the Eckhart character, the character of Jasira's father possesses all the maturity of a developmentally stunted child.
Actually, the only reason I thought this might be an interesting ride is the movie's title: "Towelhead". In hindsight, my initial optimism that this flick might explore Arab American relations in an innovative way were completely unfounded.
The story is trite, and the characters are poorly written and not believable.
My recommendation: I really can't believe I sat through this movie (I still feel disgust); do yourself a favor and pass on this one. Was this review helpful? Sign In 1-1 of 1 Per Page | ||
