Examples of the film's shortcomings: all of the characters are extremely stereotypical (the hard-working, proud, honorable, heroic mother; her foiling party-loving, less intelligent friend; her gallant but shy suitor; her determined, precocious son; his tender-hearted rogue guardian; the ball-busting smuggler matriarchal with a heart of gold; the patronizing, unfeeling Caucasian socialite whom they un-creatively nicknamed Cruella Deville; the happy-go-lucky mariachi musicians), many of the scenes were equally stereotypical (the boy and his guardian's airing of grievances through an impromptu karaoke scene in the back of the Native-American run diner; the cathartic sacrifice of the once-gruff guardian at the end, complete with face-in-grass-knee-on-back cuff shot with the cops; the cornering of the boy at his own birthday party by his money-hungry,aggressive relatives; the bated breath scene of anticipation at the border patrol station), and finally, the amateur, over-the-top performances given by nearly all of the actors in the film.
