I think illegal immigrants from Mexico and other Latin American countries will continue to enter with very little ability by the government to stop them

my Mexican students all get a kick out of this movie, i've seen it and it is sort of lame and made-for-tv, but over all i don't regret having watched it, it makes a good point, and I like the point of what makes you Mexican, looks or language or culture. good post

I have to say that I enjoyed this movie quite a bit. NOW I have to add that the main reason probably was due to watching this movie in Mexico City. The way the audience reacted to it seemed to be where I got most of my enjoyment.

It really is a bad movie otherwise. :)

I'm a landscaper. Tuesday I had some of my crew cleaning out a flowerbed by the intersection of two main roads. I wasn't there at the time, but they told me that this happened. A couple of hispanic-looking guys drove by in a car and shouted out of the window, "Hey yo, that's Mexican work. White Power! Yeaaah"

Our guys laughed, of course. And cheered back, I guess. I think the Korean guys on my crew were confused.

Like the lameo movie, I can't imagine that this protest or standout of sorts will end in anything more than these (already poor) people missing out on their May 1st wages. They will have to go to work on Tuesday to make money to pay their bills and their employeers will find other day workers to fill their post on Monday, or hey, even a replacement.

The Mexican community (b/c that's who the immigration issues seem to be about, not Hispanics -people of Spanish heritage-) needs an educated leader and voice who can properly respond to their constituents in ways other than work protests.

This movie was hilarious for about five minutes......

This movie was hilarious for about five minutes... unbearable to sit through the rest.

Consider it the comedy version of all-time-been-there-done-that-flop "crash"

I did watch this DVD about a year ago (per YOUR suggestion)...it was a bit painful, but does make one think of all of the jobs that Hispanic people do, that it seems noo one else wants to do. The problem that I have with this whole thing is that a lot of these people come here and work (probably hard) but are paid under the table, they pay no taxes or social security, and then come to the hospital and have Medicaid, their employment status is written as unemployed and who is paying for this??

RC: I watched this a year ago and it was absolutely atrocious! I couldn't believe how bad it was. Thanks for reminding me ;-)

The issue is serious, and the DVD seems like torture to sit through.
