Masterful Movie

It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.

Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Excellent Movie. I enjoyed the end. Very symbolic because we know who Daddy Yankee is and where he is now, and it showed where he came from. It was a very strong film. I wanted to see more, and know more about his personal life. I'm glad he made this film for us to see. I felt very sorry for his family and his loss, if it is all based on a true story. I found it very upsetting and was routing for Daddy Yankee to get his revenge. I really felt that. It's an emotional story, and it left me admiring him more as an artist. I'm glad he made this film because he is one of the first(and one of the best) Reggaeton stars, and the music would not be the same without him. I'm glad he got out of that lifestyle and brought his talent to light for the world to see because even after all these years, although it hasn't been that long, he is still holding it down. His musical style, beats, and rap represent the lifestyle and you feel that it is coming from deep within his heart and soul that makes him an original that cannot be duplicated.

I'm a professional uploader. Who has been going crazy for the release of this movie. Not just a movie, but a great FILM. [ Coño ] It even attracted my attention since 2005. When supposibly Daddy Yankee were talking' about making a movie. Yeap - since 2005 i had been waiting for it. 2008 I had the pleasure to buy it from amazon . com. Many people were asking me " Andy where u gonna get it ? " . I was like - I DON'T KNOW.But F-I-N-A-L-L-Y I was able to watch it. AND , Oh hell CHEA !. i loved it. i WATCHED it 3 times [ 2 in Spanish and once in plain English ] . The English version is funny - the way they talked <- MAD GHETTO. Just like WE NEW YORKERS know.Now : About the movie. I give it 10/10 , 5 Stars , " Se lucio ". Daddy Yankee and Maestro. In my opinion were the main characters - of course let's not forget about the other reggaetoneros.The question you should ask yourself is: WHAT HAPPENED TO THE HATTERS, who said " Daddy Yankee is not gonna make it "?

I saw the movie last night & I was completely blown away. DY's performance was great as well for the rest of the cast however for me that stole the show was Maestro {Jeico}. A man who is willing to take out his childhood friend to gain control of the barrio that DY ran. 2 major bichote's running different parts of Valle Verde & Jeico wants it all ... first he gets rid of El Domi along with his crew ... that is one bichote down now the next is Wichy {Edgar's best friend; almost blood brother; At this point Dinero left the drug world to continue his career as a rapero), which Edgar left the business to Wichy and Jeico, but with greed, Jeico kills Wichy.. He rapes and brutally beats Nata {Edgar's sister}due to her denying him constantly at the end when she finally had enough of being his "amigita" & constant threats of killing her brother.What I liked about Edgar {DY's character} even though he's a drug dealer he cares for his community .. for example; Edgar & his gang are at the corner waiting for man {I forgot his name} as soon as the man gets out of the car with his wife, he and his gang begin to beat him .. during the beating Edgar screams at him saying "you enjoy raping young girls etc" Its a bit violent and the beating is not necessary but here it shows that even though Edgar is a drug dealer he doesn't tolerate that in his Barrio. Edgar had mad luv for his crew as well, especially Wichy.. he was like a blood brother to him, growing up together en el barrio juntos.Maestro performance was so great it made me so mad that I wanted to give him a tiro .. He was just completely wicked and didn't care who got in his way .. up to the point where he would kill his own men if they ever talked or heard music from Edgar. Maestro got the sadistic killer to the point ... playing both sides of the field gaining each sides trust only to attack to gain control of the Barrio.Many probably won't enjoy it but what I really enjoyed about the movie is that you get to see what people don't want to see ... reality of the barrio. I've been to places like that and I give them snaps for toughing it out in those areas its not easy but they struggle to give a good life to their kids when they can't afford it. I would watch it again ... and I will.

I seen the movie last night 7/23/2008 at The New York International Latino Film Festival. Daddy Yankee was sitting 4 rows in front of me. He said a little speech before the showing of the film. He is a very humble dude. The film was great. It was full of action , great plot and great twist. I hope if comes on in the theaters. If not on DVD. Eddie D and Voltio were in the film too. It was just a great film. Try to see the film if you hear its playing near you. It will be worth every dollar. It took D.Y 2 years to make it but its a well put film. The film is all in Spanish. Its has its serious moments and funny moments. They didn't have subtitles so the English speaking view might have a hard time understanding what is going on. but for those that speak Spanish your going to truly enjoy it. I don't want to really go into detail of the film cause I just might mess things up for viewers. I just wanted to let those who are waiting to see it that they had it for the Film festival and there might be a chance that it would go straight to DVD but know one really know. I really hope they put it in the theaters cause i would love to see it again.
