Produced and starring Jennifer Lopez, BORDERTOWN is a compelling story that happens in Juarez, Mexico amid the NAFTRA controversy. Mexican border towns are gripped in fear as women factory workers are attacked, raped and killed or left for dead every day. The editor of the Chicago Sentinel George Morgan(Martin Sheen)sends an ambitious reporter, Lauren Adrian(Lopez)to investigate the murders and she ends up with the story of her lifetime. A young woman(Maya Zapata)actually survives an attack and Adrian decides to go undercover with the help of a journalist friend(Antonio Banderas)to expose the truth about the out of controlled murders in Juarez. Her findings are immersed with corruption that extends to both sides of the border. The story is engrossing, but the ending is so ridiculous. Albeit, kudos to writer and director Gregory Nava.
