Towelhead

two out of ten

This movie about a young girl sent to live with her Arab father after her mother feels she can't handle her is a movie that I watched from beginning to end but felt horrified and disgusted throughout. The acting is mediocre at best and the subject matter, the exploitation of a young girl is explored into such fine detail that it makes you nauseous particularly as in my opinion, most of it was unnecessary. I felt dirty after finishing this movie and I might never look at Aaron Eckhart the same way again.
