Love the foreign comedy/satire element in this excellent indie, a breath of fresh air. I like to be entertained and as such, there are no major flaws that come to mind with "The Motel" (2005).
One of the reviews here rips the American-Asian content for not being sensitive enough to Chinese/Korean cultures. Well, gee whiz! I suggest all indie directors ignore such cultural political nitpicking because we are not in Asia, we are in the melting pot of the USA. There are 100+ nations-cultures-variants now living in the U. S., it is impossible to appease all of their root sensitivities within cinema- no one has the time, the $$, or the inclination to do so, in mainstream theatre.

There are way too many over-analytical reviews ripping this movie to shreds! Folks, this is neither a documentary nor a nuclear physicist's guide to building a real atomic bomb- the whole idea is to entertain and maybe leave you wondering and thinking...what if? It's a story!
Looks like people actually do watch movies with pen and paper, rack up every possible reality defect, and review each one of them here. Doesn't sound entertaining to me. What they are lacking is an imagination. The movie does draw you in fully and take your mind for a good ride. That's what we pay for! Relax and enjoy, suspend your serious reality for an hour or two! It's a decent movie!
