Summary: A very inspiring story
Review: I have seen Mario on TV for years. So I thought of buying this DVD. After watching it I was truly insipred by the story and the acting in this movie. The story is great and original, and Mario is terrific. I am amazed that he hasn't hit the big screen in big way, yet. But with this movie if the right people are watching, he will, I am certain. He has all the making of a super action hero. I would definitely recommend this movie to people who like uplifting and inspiring stories.

Summary: Mario Lopez Amazing!
Review: I think this movie always remind me about the story of my brother's life. Mario Lopez did a good acting and I really liked him as an actor especially all those movie that he made for the past like the story of Greg Louganis a former Olympic Medalist. Buy this movie i will recommended as FIVE STAR!

Summary: Mario's Big Break
Review: This is a surprisingly thoughtful movie about a flawed, but decent young man torn between the life of easy money and upward mobility that a mob boss offers him or staying true to the impoverished community where he came from. Mario Lopez gives a very well-acted performance in what should be a star-making role for him. He also demonstrates the kind of charisma and physical presence to be an action hero in feature films. Hollywood producers should take note.

Summary: Eastside
Review: This movie is horrible and the DVD cover/summary completely misleads the viewer. It is not about an East LA gang - Mario never holds a gun in the entire movie (unlike the cover photo) - and it is not an action film. Mario plays a scrappy punk just out of prison who helps save a children's community center from being sold off and developed. He teaches a one-armed kid to play badminton! Don't be fooled by these other reviews - I actually saw it and laughed at how bad it is!

Review: This movie rocks! Mario - you are ready now for big time superstar hero status. Mr Ravi Chopra's story is very original and very inspiring. Great movie.
