this movie is a sattire comedy about the inmigration, even that this movie was made more than 15 yrs old, has a very actual subject about the same old problem that provides inmigration and the treatment that US border gives to illegals, has great comedy about LA. hommies, and how even US citizens looking as mexicans could be victims of racism, either way its a nice comedy movie to enjoy,this is my first review, i would say a a Must-have classic on Latin Comedy.
A coworker lent me this movie to watch it and I loved it. So did my family. It's funny but it also depicted the reality picture of what life is like in Southern California where we live. We loved this movie so much and we decided to own one.
Who would have thought that Cheech Marin could do comedy without Tommy Chong? I love this movie from start to finish. The terrible time that he has in trying to get back across the border is great. Daniel Stern is great as the man who is trying to get Cheech to earn enough to get back across the border. Full of comedy and some funny misunderstandings, this will delight you for yearsd to come.
i've wanted this video for a long time and figured i could find it in one of those video baskets at wal-mart but they never had it so i went to e-bay because you can find everything on e-bay. i ordered it and got my confirmation of the order and then i waited and waited and waited 18 days to get the video. there were other companies that had the video and if i order a video again i think i'll try one of them first.
is a good movie to have home is a perfect example of how people fight to come to this country it gives you a good message. and is a movie for all the family to wacht
compre este material por que estoy interezado de seguir comprando mas de este artista. el material adquirido fue de una muy buena calidad sus especificaciones se adaptaron ha lo especificado por los vededores.
THIS A VERY FUNNY MOVIE. A LITTLE SILLY. A LITTLE CORNEY, BUT STILL VERY FUNNY, CHEECH POKES FUN AT MUSIC (HENDRIX, SPRINGSTEEN, RICHIE VALENS, BEATLES, ECT), STEREO TYPES, THE MEXICAN TEXAS BORDER AND CAPITALISM. CHEECH'S ONE LINERS AND SOFT HEART PROVES THAT THERE IS COMEDY AFTER POT SMOKING. ENJOY IT MANY TIMES OVERS
This is a funny movie in which Cheech Marin pokes fun at himself as a Mexican-American who accidently ends up across the border from his Southern California home in Mexico(without identification), where HE can't communicate or wrangle his way back into the US. Paul Rodriguez plays his non-English speaking cousin, visiting in his home and unable to assist in this new modern city. (A memorable scene plays out when Cheech Marin tries to phone his cousin for help-and can only reach the answering machine- and his cousin hilarilously thinks the religious painting on the wall is speaking to him!!!
excellent movie cheech was great in this as well as other actors actresses i bought this dvd it was delivered to me in a very prompt fashion i recommened this seller 100%
I bought the DVD for my husband, it was our anniversary. He loves the movie and when they show it on TV they take out some good parts. It's a good DVD, well made. I wish that it had some special features and the cover art could be better, like the old VHS cover. Overall it's a great comedy and a must for Cheech Marin fans.
I paid, and on 5/18 received confirmation from seller that he received my payment and that he shipped my purchase.
I never received my purchase, i've made several request to seller via email to send me a tracking number or to advise status and have never heard back from seller.
till this day i payey, never received my purchase or any response from seller.
I remember watching this movie when i was very much younger than i am today. I recently purchased cheech and chongs up in smoke and it triggered something in my brain that i absolutely had to have Born in the east L.A.
