Hollywoodreporter - A Yankee teacher crossing the border from Mexico into the U.S. gets into hot water while his smart-alecky daughter lounges in the back seat in Sun Belt Express, an rough-and-tumble but occasionally very funny indie comedy from director Evan Buxbaum. More successful when aiming for laughs than when it’s trying to say something important about illegal immigration or the fraught relationship between a divorced father and his teenage offspring, this is nonetheless directed with enough flashes of directorial flair to at least warrant play at smaller events, such as the recent Champs-Elysees Festival in Paris, before migrating to VOD platforms.
