Confusões Amorosas

Does this movie make sense? Uhhhhh. Does his movie provide an interesting story and relatable characters? Uhhhhhhh. Is it passable? I guess. This movie really equates to three incredibly attractive Latina women running around showing off cleavage and having fun, was it a work of art? No, definitely not. Did I enjoy it? Did you not hear when I mentioned the three incredibly attractive Latina women running around and showing off cleavage? It was slightly shackled by it's PG rating and it is not something for family viewing but if you're in the right mood it's an okay time. Just remember this film is pretty surface level eye-candy.

Chasing Papi (2003) Roselyn Sanchez, Sofia Vergara, Jaci Velasquez, Eduardo Verastequi, Lisa Vidal, Freddy Rodriguez, D.L. Hughley, Maria Conchita Alonso, D: Linda Mendoza.

Inoffensive but underwhelming Latin comedy about a handsome Romeo working as an advertising executive and dating three beautiful women in three different states all at once. When they are convinced to drop everything they're doing and race to their man's side, all three women discover of his betrayal and get wrapped up in a quandary together.

If it weren't for a plot about a bag of money, this silly story wouldn't go anywhere. It's fun, but a smile is the closest thing you'll find to a single laugh.

Running Time: 80 minutes and rated PG for mild sensuality and language.

RATING: ** (out of ****)

I rented this movie last week and I thought it was pretty good. The three female leads in the film were beautiful. The movie had a few laughs but some of the actors could've been funnier, like D.L. Hughley. If any of you have seen any of his stuff you know he could've been funnier in this film. I know exactly what Tomas was going through in the movie so his character kind of hit close to home. It was great to see Paul Rodriguez in this movie as he had me laughing my butt off the time he was on screen. Overall I thought it was pretty good but this movie was played a little too safe. The plot about the money in the car and the ending where they learned that they don't need a man and become independent are basic but enjoyable. I would recommend this to any couple looking for a good movie to watch. Guys will dig it and so will the girls. I would definitely watch it again, maybe buy it.

I was attracted to this movie after seeing Sofia Vergara on one of the late night talk shows. Anyway, after watching her interview, "Chasing Papi" became a must see, but I didn't actually see it until this week when it hit Pay-per-View.

I have to admit that the first time I watched it I was a bit dismayed that the plot seemed thin, but being that virtually every scene involved Sofia, I really didn't care. You can look at her a thousand times and each time you will will see something new that makes her appear even more beautiful.

So naturally I watched the movie again, and this time I noticed that the movie flowed a bit better and that the plot wasn't as thin as I originally thought it was. Couple that with Sofia looking better than in the first viewing, and I can only surmise that this movie will get BETTER with each repeated viewing.

I know what my schedule is like for the rest of the year!

I had high expectations for this film. I had seen the trailers, and was expecting a joyride of a movie. It was a ride, but not a joyful one. The pace of the movie was so fast that there was not really any chance to enjoy the characters or the story that could have been great. Three beautiful women all vying for the same beautiful guy. What could have been just never was. No character development whatsoever. No real laughs. No plot explanation. I never understood what was so great about this guy, or so bad about the women that they would fight so hard for him. CP can be a fun movie like a child's roller coaster. Kinda fast, kinda fun, but not really.
