Really liked it, the music was great. As a dominican, it felt good to see part of my culture on screen (latin caribbean culture in general). I felt it was a bit slow though, but I am no expert.

I love it, very good movie

Made me sad actually.

The big dream for the kids is to go to college and get a job. My family and I bought into that dream by immigrating here in my teens, and my parents made a huge sacrifice for me to get here.

Now? life is mediocre. Way too much student debt, poor mental health, struggling marriage: none of us are educated on that. It’s a nice romanticism of the sueñito, but overall just reminded me how much struggle the Latino community is under.

Definitely think it was a step in the right direction w/ Latinx leads but even LMM acknowledged the lack of Afro-Latinx and Black representation. Movie-musical wise it was done well and hopefully there will be more!

Appreciate it for what it was. Loved it as a piece of representation on the big screen for my kids to see.

I can really use some direction. My background, I've worked 2 years in strategy and am currently coming off an exhausting year 2 in investment banking.

Everybody says there's exit-ops aplenty, but I find myself with less options and even more picky than I did as an ambitious T2 undergrad student. Where do I go from here?
