I didn't get much response from the review thread either. While I loved the movie, and I think it's absolutely as good as anything I've seen in the past year aside from ROTK, I didn't think the subplot with Mateo worked all that well. Honsou did a good job in the role, but some of the scenes felt a bit forced to me. Ebert started his review by praising the first scene between Mateo and Johnny, but I thought it was overdone. I loved the girls coming to trick or treat at his apartment, though, that was excellent. Everything with the main family interacting with each other was very moving. Anyone else like the movie but not care much for that main subplot?
