Review of Nothing Like the Holidays (2008) by Ryan M — 17 Nov 2011

First of all it was filmed in Logan Square not Humboldt park like they claim. Second that wasn't a realistic depiction of your typical puerto Rican family in Humboldt park. Also we don't call our HS Roberto Clemente HS its just "Clemente".

I could go on and on about everything that was wrong in this film but it wouldn't matter. If you watch this movie please don't assume this is how the Puerto Rican families are in Chicago. There should have been more humor in this movie since we Puerto Ricans are such comedians.

Also practically every puerto Rican owns a guitar or guido that the elders usually jam to. There was no passion or pride in this film which basically describes a true puerto Rican. They should have done some research.

Looks like they just pulled this movie out of their a$$.
