Puerto Ricans in Paris (2015)

I wanted to but couldn't!

I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

Fresh and Exciting

Fantastic!

Luis (Luis Guzmán) and Eddie (Edgar Garcia) are crack NYC cops on the front lines in the battle against "illegal drugs, human trafficking, and terrorism" by taking knock-off hand bags off the street. They are hired by Colette (Alice Taglioni) a French hand bag designer to find her new design stolen hand bag. The plot weakness is that in Paris, NYC cops have no jurisdiction. Paris cops or private detectives can't do the job, only two Puerto Ricans (with one being a half-wit) can do the job.Eddie is married to Luis' sister (Rosie Perez) while Luis recently broke up with his girlfriend (Rosario Dawson) over the commitment thing. Luis goes to Paris as a crude American pick up artist while Eddie shows a little class and style and has major appeal to the young ladies to the chagrin of Luis. I discovered that FUBAR is a place and not just an acronym and Luis discovers that all the French speak English and pretend that the don't.The film has some humor and works back on itself like most decent script.Guide: F-word. Brief model nudity

Of course you can't expect t it to be on the same level as a blockbuster comedy film but it's something different and it has Luis Guzman, He's a fun guy all around. There were parts that could have been funnier, and it looks like they were trying to be funny but perhaps the script didn't work out that way. Really glad to see a guilty pleasure film made.The beginning of the film starts out appealing, it looks like it's going to be outrageous but doesn't quite get there. It had some moments that made you smile and even laugh. Can't say it quite made you laugh until you cried but enough to keep you engaged. not too familiar with the director Ian. The production looks like it had good quality video editing. It had some good name actors: Rosie Perez, Rosario Dawson, and Luis Guzman. I definitely would like to see more guilty pleasure movies like these.

Overall, I thought it was a good movie. There was one part I didn't quite understand. They're looking for a stolen purse. They found it with one of the suspects, then they're looking for it again. HOW DID IT GET LOST AGAIN? That's my only question. I need ten lines so I'm putting in this for satisfy: The Raven by Edgar Allan Poe First Published in 1845 Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary, Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore, While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping, As of someone gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door. " 'Tis some visitor," I muttered, "tapping at my chamber door; Only this, and nothing more."

This is not a film that everybody was looking forward. This something an unexpected film from the new crew, but the actors were somewhat known to us. They are mostly supporting cast from the mainstream films, but they played the main characters in this little film. A simple cop film that tells the story of two NYPD detectives who were hired to solve a case of stolen handbag in the Paris. So they pack their bags and land in the city of love. It's like a vacation for them, but they aware of their assignment and they begin working on their own way to find the thief. The rest is the small adventures filled with the decent comedies.The film was short and there were no mega stunt sequences. Not because it was a small budget film, but it was aimed to keep everything simple. More like in the real society, but improvised it by adding some comedies. I don't know Luis Guzman ever did a lead role, but this is first of his for me and I enjoyed his part along with his partner. The praise must go to the effort, not for the overall film. Because I knew it won't be another 'Bad Boys', so I braced myself to watch it and then I found it better. It is a lot better than many craps from the recent time, so it is worth watching at once, but don't force yourself.6/10
