Enjoyable but mild love-hate comedy!.......2007-02-18

This is an entertaining but mild love-hate comedy starring the lovely & talented Laura Harring in a lead role. She plays a hot-tempered & strong-willed Latina woman who marries for a green card. She's not at all the monster that she's made out to be by her brother - singer "Gerardo". It's probably the director's fault for not having her play the role to the hilt. This is the only flaw of the film. That would have been fun to watch, and allowed Ms. Harring to stretch her acting skills. However, her character here comes across as generally sweet and sort of like mild salsa. There's no vindictiveness - think of how good "War of the Roses" was with Michael Douglas & Kathleen Turner. Yet, it's nice to see Laura in all her gorgeous beauty for 90 minutes here rather in brief supporting roles where she only gets a few seconds of camera time. The chemistry between the leads is pretty good. The singer formerly known as "Gerardo" is excellent as the bossy brother-in-law. I especially liked the scene where he goes in for an image make-over and the hairstylist wants to shave off his moustache. Overall, it's a satisfying comedy but could have been better if the script called for more of a battle between the sexes. If you want to watch a hysterical and truly vindictive love-hate relationship, pick up "Love Stinks" starring Frenchie Stewart and Brigitte Wilson.

I love this movie! I watch this in spainsh class, so I only suggest if you can speak a little spanish then you will love it! It starts off slow but it gets better so be patient. Sorry for the spelling. I can't type with the nails on.

The Best scenes are with Barbara Eden.......2004-04-28

The best scenes of the DVD movie are with Barbara Eden who's always Great in the roles she plays.

Fools Rush Into Greek Wedding...NOT!!!.......2004-01-02

If you loved the Movie My Greek Wedding...Or Where Fools Rush in then you will be bitterly disapointed with this movie!!! Does this mean Loco Love was a terrible movie...not hardly the potential was there. The plot as the other movies have demonstrated was a potential five the execution was a one...leaving me mathmatically speaking with a three for nice try... The actors did a great job with a very mediorce script and I don't think you will be upset that you rented it...but I am sure you will be glad that you did not take your date to the movies to see this one because it does sort of leave you flat...

Better than expected.......2003-11-23

To be honest I never expected much out of Loco Love when I picked it up on the video store shelf. The only reason I rented it in the first place was because it starred Laura Harring whom I've been a big fan of ever since I saw Mulholland Drive. I put it into the DVD player and was pleasantly surprised to find that I actually enjoyed the film.
While it does have some glaring problems, most blatantly the fact that it was probably very low budget and it seemed as if the movie had been made for television. The fact is the movie entertained me much more so than most of the romantic comedies being pushed onto the big screen by the studios. If I had a choice I would rent this again before watching Maid In Manhattan or the Wedding Planner again. Both big Hollywood hits.
Loco Love's plot is simply enough. A well to do man gets dumped by his cheating wife who digs the knife deeper by taking his restaurant he manages from him in the divorce. meanwhile his Mexican gardener has just won 62 million in the lottery and is desperate to bring his sister(Laura Harring) up from Mexico. He makes a deal with the man that if he marries his sister so she can get a green card he will buy him a new restaurant. The only problem is his sister is rather tempered and the two instantly clash. It's no surprise that the two actually end up falling in love and the ending is predictable but the way the audience is led to the ending is what makes this film so much fun.
For those of you wanting to see something new that you might have missed without 50 million on advertising I would check out this movie.

SEX DRIVEN SILLY FILM....DOES HAVE SOME LAUGHS!!.......2004-05-31

THE MISERY BROTHERS is the concoction of writer/director/actor Lorenzo Doumani, and he even uses his actress wife, Brenda. I first came upon them with the well done, if uneven, horror spoof BUG BUSTER.
This really corny and derivative comedy spoofs everything from JFK and Marilyn Monroe to "A Few Good Men" and "The Godfather."
Most of the jokes miss horribly, but there at least a half dozen that really work well. Doumani and veteran character actor Leo Rossi play the Misery brothers, who stand to inherit 200 million dollars from their gangster fathers estate IF they do two things: not get arrested for any felonies for at least a year; and secondly, get married within that year. If they don't the money will go to Rev Scheister's Second Son of Christ church. You know from here what will happen. But it doesn't really matter as the movie is simply a vehicle for over the hill actors to have fun. For example:
ABE VIGODA plays the gangster dad, Don Frito Layleone, head of the huge food chain syndicate.
PAT MORITA appears as Judge Ben E Hana, who serves justice with a variety of culinary weapons.
DR. JOYCE BROTHERS appears at the very end to hear the Misery boys' story. (A previous listener dies during the story).
NELL CARTER shows up as a witness who don't know nuttin.
NORM CROSBY has a field day as the prosecuting attorney who uses most of his words in erroneous context (He's really funny).
ERIK ESTRADA appears as the jail warden who breaks into an Elvis Presley impersonation of the Misery Blues. (His jump suit, however, is red).
LOU FERRIGNO isn't green in this one, but he riotously plays the brothers' servant, chauffeur, cook, etc.
SHERMAN HELMSLEY is the villainous Rev. Scheister, and Don King effigy.
RODDY PIPER appears as a wrestling referee who officiates a tag team match between the brothers and two prostitutes (who later show up unexplainably dead?).
FRANK STALLONE appears as Frank the cop, with as much brain matter as his famous brother's Rocky character.
Musical numbers come out of nowhere, and although one is very funny, the others fall flat.
There are tons of bodacious bosomy babes, none of them with any acting talent, but one cowgirl is hilarious when she tries to execute the boys.
THIS IS DEFINITELY A GUILTY PLEASURE, but it does have enough laughs to entertain you.
