Frontera does not measure up as an issue-oriented film

Ozus' World Movie Reviews
In trying to create a balanced portrait of the conflicts and the ordinary people affected by them, director Michael Berry... chips away at the authenticity and intensity that an issue-driven film like this sorely needs.

Rating: 2.5/4 --
"Frontera" is a well-cast, well-made, well-acted drama that you will probably forget about soon after you've seen it.

Rating: A --
I liked everything about this film, the writing by Michael Berry (who also directed the film) and Louis Moulinet, the pace, the editing, by Larry Madaras ('American Beauty') and the acting is excellent by the entire cast.

Laramie Movie Scope
It feels like an oversimplified examination of potentially provocative subject matter.

Rating: 3/5 --
The modern, gritty Western "Frontera" takes a lot of the clichés and delicately upends them to tell a tale about undocumented immigrants.

Product Description:
An investigation into the murder of a sheriff's wife on the Arizona/Mexico border proves less cut-and-dry than initial appearances suggest in this topical drama from writer/director Michael Berry. As a Mexican man (Michael Peña) attempts to cross illegally into the United States, his encounter with a sheriff's wife (Amy Madigan) is cut short when rifle shots ring out across the desert. When the dust clears, the woman lies dead. At first, all evidence points to the illegal man as the killer, but as the former sheriff (Ed Harris) teams with the current sheriff (Aden Young) to investigate, it quickly becomes apparent that there are more sinister forces at play. As the two lawmen work to unearth the truth, however, they are faced with difficult questions that force them to ponder the value of human life, and the true price of justice.
