5 Popcorns = Must see!
4 Popcorns = You'll probably like it.
3 Popcorns = Go in the morning when there are cheaper ticket prices.
2 Popcorns = Maybe rent it.
1 Popcorn = Wait for a friend to rent it and watch it with them.
Kernel = Don't see it at all. Ever.

How to Be a Latin Lover (2017)





Directed by: Ken Marino

Written by: Chris Spain & Jon Zack

Starring: Eugenio Derbez, Salma Hayek, & Raphael Alejandro





When Maximo's (Derbez) father dies, Maximo is determined to never work as hard as him.  Therefore, he becomes a Latin Lover, as the title implies.  But when his sugar momma cheats on him and then throws him out, he has no where else to go, but with his sister Sara (Hayek).  While there, he schemes a way to find a new rich old wife.

This film is hilarious.  Derbez does it again with his fantastic comedic performance similar to Instructions Not Included.  In addition, Hayek performed well too as the uptight hardworking mother who needs to let loose every once in a while.

Despite the film making me cry for how hilarious it was, towards the end it became more touchy feely and less funny.  But it wrapped up the film well nonetheless and showed character growth within the three main stars.

If you need a good laugh, go see this movie.  5 popcorns.
