I Love, Love, LOVE ♥

I Love, Love, LOVE ♥ Going to the movies ALONE. Yes alone! Well with my 3 favorite friends Me, Myself, & I. It's like total freedom! I can see what I want to see & when I want to see it. No one is sitting next to me talking, giggling or laughing. It's almost a stress reliever for me. My mind is usually clear when I walk out the theater.
Tonight I was bored and I decided to go see Nothing Like the Holidays. It was such a cute movie! And there were some sexy Latino men in that movie. Shhhh I've always had a weird nerdy crush on John Leguizamo. ♥ I also ♥ Freddy Rodriguez too..... (from Six Feet Under). Jay Rodriguez is fine too. Also Jaslene Gonzalez for from Americas Next Top Model winner of Cycle 8 was in the movie for like a minute. She's a beauty.

Here's the synopsis of the movie:



It's Christmastime and the far-flung members of the Rodriguez family are converging at their parents' home in Chicago to celebrate the season and rejoice in their youngest brother's safe return from combat overseas. For Jesse, coming home has rekindled feelings for an old flame, although she can't seem to forgive him for leaving. His older sister Roxanna, a struggling actress, has been chasing her Hollywood dreams for years with little to show for it. And much to the dismay of their mother Anna, eldest brother Mauricio brings home a high-powered executive wife who would rather raise capital than a child. In the course of one eventful week, traditions will be celebrated, secrets revealed and major life decisions made. It all begins when Anna announces to her children she is divorcing their father Eduardo. The shock waves from this familial upheaval prompt Roxanna, Mauricio and Jesse, each in their own way, to reevaluate the past and rethink the future. But when the Rodriguezes learn that one of their own is facing a true crisis, they instinctively pull together: Old resentments are forgotten, familial bonds are re-affirmed and the healing power of laughter works its magic as the family discovers they are much stronger than they ever realized.

I give the movie 3 Stars!
I give the eye candy 4 Stars!

So, would this movie be like a Latino Soul Food during Christmas? (just imagining how they would have pitched this movie in a Hollywood big-wigs office.)

Yep, did you see the movie "This Christmas" last year w/ Chris Brown? Same concept except this movie is about Puerto Ricans. It was cute it made me miss home... I grew up in a Latino neighborhood and I miss the "conversating", food, and dancing!! ♥
