About this movie

Marc Anthony ("Man on Fire," "Big Night") steps into the role of Salsa superstar Hector Lavoe in this biopic that follows the singer from his early career success as a Puerto Rican teen sensation to his later status as a New York City Latin idol while also documenting his ongoing struggle against drug and alcohol addiction. Golden Globe-nominee Jennifer Lopez ("Maid in Manhattan," "Selena") co-stars as Puchi, Lavoe's longtime muse and love interest.

Given the 25% rating on Rotten Tomatos, it may be fair to say that this flick was made by Ricans accidentally for Ricans. My family and I loved it.
