Was Linda Arsenio's character pretty much unnecessary?
I personally feel that she was pretty much a dead weight. More like a prop than a character. I'm not saying I hated her or something, or even that i'd prefer it if she wasn't in the movie (I might, but that's not my point here); just that she seemed pretty useless. Of course there was the part where she put on the burqa so she could go find Imran's daughter, but other than that, her presence in the movie seemed basically pointless. I think that the particularly lazy writing for her character shows that the filmmakers didn't care much for her too. I don't know if she was there to be a token American, or a token woman, or what.
What do you think?
