| User ReviewMario VFor those looking to find out what poor Mexican immigrants go through might want to check this comedy out. Though a bit exxagerated the story does make a good transition into the American dream we all desire. A great quote, "I love poor food." Watch it with a group especially if they are Hispanics. Enjoy! |

| User ReviewJames HAn excellent little film that plays up the Mexican American culture where a struggling man who sells oranges on the side of the road is handed a million dollars and told to hold onto it for 30 days. He uses it as collateral, trying to build up a life in America, but all sorts of hurdles jump in the way. Nice little film, with some funny moments. I liked it. |
