Synopsis: In Texas, a Mexican immigrant is killed and his boss and best friend takes his body to bury it in Mexico. He takes the killer along.
Appraisal: Half-baked story of redemption. Its qualities lie more in the sense of humor contained in small details (a fat woman giving her dog a lush kiss, a cell phone call during a chase, and so on...) than in the big picture it draws, which is somewhat manicheistic and cliché-ridden. And about the ranger's wife, give me a break: she hasn't been in town long enough that her boredom has reached a point where she will jump - without a trace of reluctance or awkwardness - into a afternoon escapade with an illegal immigrant she has never met before.
