Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - HORRIBLE
I watched this movie in school. Terrible acting. Boring Plot. Just an all around bad movie, one of the worst I've seen.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - UNDER MY THUMB!
This movie is a poor look into the lives of illegal immigrants. It's very stereotypical and it makes our immigration people look bad. The acting was also really bad, and no one knew how to show real (seemingly) emotion. The script didn't help either...and the casting was bad. Oh well, I just hope a better movie comes out for this sometime!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great family film, School Appropriate and enjoyable!!
This film is great. Karla Montana ("Stand and Deliver"),
and Tony Plana ("An Officer and a Gentleman"), Jerry Stiller (George Costanza's dad on "Seinfeld", Kevin James father in law on "King of Queens") and Susan Ruttan (Artie's secretary on "LA Law") are fantastic in this 1990 film. It does not look dated, (OK, there are some great mullets!) but the themes are timeless...coming of age, first love, second generation teen struggling against first generation parents, themes specific to latinos such as illegal immigration, quinceañeras, amnesty. It's all here and it all works. I have bought it for myself and my sister, purchased one for our middle school library and loaned it out to countless friends. They all loved it. Great for classrooms learning about other cultures, also social studies, it brings up some great issues. I highly recommend it!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Show Sweet 15 to your Spanish I Classes!
I am a Spanish teacher in Florida, where Spanish is prevalent. We always show this video after presenting the "family" chapter. The clothing may be dated, Ramón may seem a little "old" for Marta, but other experiences lend a lot of validity to being a teenager, not just a "quinceañera". This video kept my students' attention, and that says a lot. They followed every conversation. They were especially involved in the dinner scene when Marta and her father had words. I could hear them talking about what their own father would have done.(smile) Not one of my students complained about it. They learned what "migra" meant, and they learned a bit about the harsh reality of being from Mexico and coming to the USA to make a living. One message was not to take so many things for granted.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - A Horrible Pea Soup
This movie was not at all tasteful, but rather stupid. I swear, this was probably one of the stupidest and most pointless movies I have ever veiwed in my life! The actors were casted all wrong, and did a horrible job on their parts. This movie was a waste of time.
