Review of Shuttle

Shuttle (2008)
A serious movie
27 March 2009
Warning: Spoilers
Well, it seems many people don't get this movie. This comment will perhaps contain some spoilers of what it is all about.

There are countless of people abducted in the world, especially young women. They are sold in to sexual slavery, preferably to a country far far away from where they came. Girls from eastern Europe gets sold to the US, Turkey, China. Chinese girls are sold to Hong Kong, Middle-east, US. US girls are sold to China, Russia, Middle-east. And so on.

This movie was to show us how one scenario that these people could use to get away with such an horrendous act. This is not a horror movie per se, but a document to those that families and friends lost. And to those girls that lost everything, and quite possibly their life in the end.

It reminds me in a way of Lilja4ever and Holly, which portrays similar events in eastern Europe and Asia. These are sad stories to tell, but people need to wake up and realize this really happens. These films, if well made, are important.
