 Latino Chick Flick? December 12, 2009
R. Bagula (Lakeside, Ca United States)
Scott Bakula guest stars as the "white" Jewish heart throb
in an East LA Mexican movie about women between cultures.
The idea is there are these four educated Mexican girls
who have reached near middle age in LA. Most are relatively successful in their careers,
but are having some problems in their love lives.
One is a train wreck artist who has very little luck with men
and gets drunk every time things go south on her.
One is a psychologist who hasn't yet adapted to being a professional
in a blue collar Mexican world.
One is a fashion designer who makes hip Mexican-American fashions.
The last best hero is a divorce lawyer who handles cases for abused Mexican women.
When her marriage goes on the rocks, things heat up.
This movie portrays Latino women in LA as kind of loose.
Anyone believing that is about to be disappointed?
I liked it as bad as the picture of Mexicans is in the movie
because it was kind of funny in a head bashing way.
 Thoroughly enjoyable June 2, 2009
Y. Miller (Melbourne, Vic, Aust)
I purchased this movie for my niece, a Robert Beltran fan, and, despite not normally liking this sort of movie, fell in love. This movie is not just for Latinos it is for everyone. It shows how alike humans really are regardless of ethnicity, religion and, to some extent, up bringing. The special features, especially the director's commentary, are a real bonus and well worth watching.

Great chick flick, but some men would also enjoy it. Being Hispanic, I can totally relate to the characters, but you don't have to be Hispanic to enjoy it. I've watched it twice already and also bought one as a gift.

Silvia A. Belmares (Chicago, IL USA)
This is a great movie for all to watch! I saw this movie years ago on a cable station and looked for it at the video stores. It was hard to find until I found it at Amazon stores. Perfect movie for ladies to watch on a girls get together night.
