The Celebrity Cafe has caught a viewing of star The Twilight Saga: New Moon Justin Chon's newest film Crossing Over.

Say they of Chon's performance,

Justin Chon showed a great variety of emotions, too. He brought out the fear of his character, desperately struggling to maintain control of something. He can't handle being taken advantage of or outsmarted by natural-born Americans. This struggle to prove himself nearly becomes the death of him. Chon really displays his inner struggle, stuck between taking actions that will just be harmful to himself and everyone around him and taking everything back for a chance for his family to be a part of this country they have come to. Harrison Ford did pretty well also, showing a resistance, trying to do his job of reporting illegal immigrants, but also without losing his soul in the process.

"Crossing Over" covers a lot of ground through many aspects of life as an American immigrant. We get people of all different nationalities, ages, and backgrounds. Some are just coming to America and some of have been here their entire lives. The film has those who are secretly in the country illegally and those who are moments away from obtaining their citizenship.

The full review is available here.

The film, which stars Harrison Ford, Ray Liotta, Ashley Judd, Jim Sturgess, and others, was released on DVD on June 9th of this year, and is rated R.
