Movie Reviews of Luminarias
Movie Review: Disappointing
Summary: 1 Stars
I watched this film based on the fact that Amazon.com members rated it four out of five stars. What a disappointment. I was turned off by the stereotypical portrayal of Mexicans. Examples of these stereotypes are: a "mojado" bartender/ waiter, a chola whose husband beats her and her son, a woman who is overly devoted to La Virgen de Guadalupe, and a "homie" portrayed by Cheech Marin.
What really made me cringe was the overall sentiment that "The Man" is holding latinos down. The writers of this film seem to have some kind of grudge against white folks.
