This film is one of the funniest I have ever seen! If you like classic
Woody Allen, you will thoroughly enjoy Luis Cabellero's funny, off
the cuff, tongue in cheek, deadpan, brilliant narration as we get to
know him as a "little brown man." This politically incorrect film
knocks every stereotype out there about Latinos (specifically
Puerto Ricans). John Leguizamo is also fabulous in the many
sketches in the movie. (He is billed as Johnny Leggs.)
We all should watch this film in this day and age. It really reminds
us of the crazinees and futility of stereotypes in contemporary
society.
