Tied for the best movie I have ever seen

Brilliant and touching

Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

This was a GREAT series, and of all the Latino Family Oriented Films and TV Series that have been released this one was the best by far. The Latino communuty has been a mainstay of LA forever, and it was refreshing to see this family on a weekly basis in their everyday lives living in East LA. I feel it's a travesty that Viacom hasn't released Seasons 2 & 3 to DVD. Does anyone know if this is going to happen? There's also a petition out there to maybe help the process along. There has to be some way to get the other 2 seasons released. I for one won't rest until that happens.

I love this show! The actors are enjoyable, the acting is well done, and some of the situations remind me of growing up in East Los Angeles.There have been shows that try to get across ELA living, most do not come close (esp. the one on currently which is badly acted on KCET). What "Resurrection Blvd." has to offer is what I saw growing up in Boyle Heights, and the ELA experience in a nutshell. This is a familia in my hometown, and I honestly feel like they could have grown up next to me. The endearing characters is the Santiago family itself; they are close, but far apart in the generation between father and son. Boxing is the main issue, but in reality, it's all about family. In reality, that's my life as a kid and adult - family. One sacrifices for the family, and it's normal. One of my favorite characters is Miguel - he could be doing almost anything, but his character is almost the glue. He is the middle of the generations and holds them together, doing whatever he has to for the sake of family.This a a program that was worth my time watching every episode. It would be hard to accept if you did not grow up in ELA, but maybe opening up your mind, you can see a bit of social circumstances that are just like anyone else, regardless of class or ethnicity.

I started watching Resurrection Blvd. about 2 years and found it to be a compelling drama with an attractive cast. Issues the Santiago family faced were self-identity, homosexuality, rape, gambling death of a loved one and so on. Being that there were fans of the show, why did Showtime cancel it? The run was not long and there was no grand finale. Anyone have details behind this cancellation? Perhaps Showtime will produce a series finale movie to give the show and it's fans some closure that it deserves!

I enjoyed Resurrection Blvd's first episode a great deal! Not only is it a rare drama about a Latino family, but it seems so real and refreshing! Yes, it contains all the soap-opera/drama elements, but there's more... a darker/more truthful side. No details here, as it could spoil the show for someone. There's a whole family of interesting, realistic men and women who just seem to grow on you too quickly. The production values are excellent, the acting above average and the casting is out of sight! A little patience may be necessary as it will certainly take a little while for the actors to iron out all the wrinkles in their characters, but it will be a reward to see this show grow!
