D.L. Hughley, Eduardo Ver?stegui, Eduardo Verastequi

A breezy exercise in "Latina Lib," Chasing Papi is a premarital variant of The First Wives Club, with enough jiggle to compete with Charlie's Angels and Victoria's Secret. The sex...( read more  read more... )y fun begins when well-meaning Latino lover Tomás (Eduardo Verastegui) is confronted by the three girlfriends he's been wooing while traveling on business: Miami cocktail waitress Cici (Sofia Vergara), New York heiress Patricia (Jaci Velasquez), and Chicago attorney Lorena (Roselyn Sanchez) have discovered Tomás's infidelity, and they're primed for payback. Their romantic revenge involves a contrived subplot of drug money, inept criminals, and a gorgeous FBI agent (Lisa Vidal), but it's the allied girlfriends who steal this dim-witted fashion show. The female costars (all veterans of Spanish-language soap operas) are smart, sassy, and incredibly attractive, and director Linda Mendoza (herself a TV graduate, making her feature debut) keeps the comedy on an even, good-natured keel. The laughs are sporadic at best, but Chasing Papi is a bubbly babe-fest that either gender can appreciate. --Jeff Shannon

I cannot recommend Chasing Papi, but I cannot dislike it. It commits no offense, except the puppylike desire to please. full review

    One of the funniest flicks i've seen in a very long time. I can't remember the last time I laughed so hard. I highly recommend this movie if you want something to lift your spirits. I watched it a few times, and caught something new each time. The male star Eduardo is very sweet, I had the pleasure of getting a personal message from him that really touched my heart and I look forward to getting to know him better. He's just as beautiful on the inside as he is on the outside. Can't wait to see you in something new. Good luck in your new projects and I wish you much success. Love
