      What to know

      Critics Consensus

      My Family's emotional impact is dulled by sentiment, but this well-acted drama strikes a universal chord with its multi-generational look at Mexican-American life. Read critic reviews

      Movie Info

      A second-generation Mexican immigrant narrates his family history, beginning with the journey of his father, Jose (Jacob Vargas), across Mexico to Los Angeles where he meets Maria (Jennifer Lopez) and starts a family. Each subsequent generation contends with political and social hardships, ranging from illegal deportations in the 1940s to racial tensions and gang fights in the '60s and '70s. Yet through it all, or perhaps because of it, the family remains strong.

      • Mar 09, 2010

        (1995 Director: Gregory Nava) This is a surprising tale & a tribute to its director. I never even heard of it before. But was bored & decided to watch something Instant Play on www.netflix.com. I laughed. I cried. There is real humor and real sorrow.....Se watta deo....I wish one person in my family had the love these people have for their family members. Jimmy Smits was excellently cast as the adult Jimmy, one of several children born to this amazing couple whose life is torn in so many ways...
