It's Just Awful-PERIOD! June 5, 2008 Crescenzo C. Capece (NYNJPR) 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
Don't let my name fool you, I know the Island of Puerto Rico and the people of the island well.It's a great place with many many wonderful people. Granted, the slant here is on a Nuyorican viewpoint, except that Rosie Perez and company never really get to a concrete reason of what and why they should be so "proud". Instead, she concentrates on the style of displays the annual parades emphasize,NOT on the real struggles and culture of the island, and why the status problem, at this stage is actually OFFENSIVE. This vanity project should never have been green lighted, and likely was done only because of ignorance; you won't really learn much about Puerto Rico here. Boricuas deserve better....sorry,Rosie.

Total disappointment. Video is offensive, vulgar, badly made and does not address the key issues facing the Puertorican people and the political future of the island. It had neither a plot nor a reason. Regret buying it, would never recommend it to anyone.

I think rosie perez did a fine job putting this documentary together. I really enjoyed it.

This is one amazing video to show the new generation....it's not boring and very informative to those who don't know our culture....This will be one video that it will be mandatory to watch for anyone coming to my home, lol.....
