One of a handful of films released during the 1980s that had the word "Border" forming part of the title and examining immigration across the Mexico-US border, many dealing with issues relating to corruption, profiteering, border protection and illegal immigration. The movies included The Border (1982), Borderline (1980), Border Heat (aka Deadly Stranger (1988)), Border Radio (1987) and The Border (1980) (aka aka "The Blood Barrier", aka "The Border", aka T"he Border, USA").

After Benny Romero is beaten up, knifed in the back and had his face razor bladed in the saloon fight with the Suarez henchman, the next scene shows him coming off the truck at Suarez' place, and his face is unmarked and clean, showing no sign of the fight.

Frank Cooper: Compassion? If I had compassion I'd stick a .357 up your ass and blow your brains out!

A film sensitive to the plight of Mexican immigrants coming to the US for a better life.

Savalas plays a border agent with a compassionate heart. Savalas is really great in this role, and the production/writing nearly rises to his level. When he's not on-screen, the film is two dimensional. The other agents are hateful Americans, the immigrants are sentimentalized heroes. I like the heartfelt understanding, but I wish it wasn't so "good guy/bad guy".

Savalas somehow makes it all credible, but he's not always the focus. When he is, good flick.
