We’re not worthy! We’re not worthy!
I was very impressed. I walked into the movie already in love with Latinas (of course). I walked out wanting to marry one. God damn! After checking out press photos of Paz Vega from Spanglish’s premiere a few weeks back, I wasn’t too impressed, but through the course of the movie, I came under her Latin spell of loooouuuve! Damn you, Paz!!
I think it had to do w/ all those loose, Spanish-flavored dresses—you know, the ones that give a cloaked sense of conservative style, but in reality accentuate every painful curve of the Sacred Latina Body. Let’s just say I choked on my popcorn numerous times.
Ok enough of my slobbering over Ms. Paz. Believe it or not, but there was actually a story. A little sappy, but if you have no action in your life (like myself), then you’ll definitely dig it. Excellent characters—each and every character was built up nicely and served their purpose wonderfully. Although, there was one flaw: they killed the ending only because they added this super awkward relationship between Adam Sandler and Paz Vega in the last 15-mins of the movie. True, it happened somewhat naturally, but the ending was as tragic as you can get! Adam Sandler needed to boot crack-whorish Téa Leoni, marry off w/ Paz and create countless bybies. Damn Paz Vega’s morals & double-damn family life, in general.
Characters
1. Téa Leoni - She was by far one of the best in the movie. She does a great crack-whore! Amazing. I loved the scene where she climaxed without the help of Adam Sandler.
2. Adam Sandler - The guy is transitioning to the serious side of Hollywood wonderfully. Damn him for getting to make out with every hot chick that enters the industry.
3. Shelbie Bruce (Paz’s daughter, Cristina) - Funny little girl and has a great future if she: a) stays away from the Olsen Twins & b) remains choosey with her films.
4. Cloris Leachman (Tea’s Mommy) - Absolutely hilarious! She plays an alcoholic.
5. Sarah Steele (Adam Sandler’s daughter) - 2nd best role in the movie & it was only the first movie of her career. Way to go, Sarah.
