Another Bad Movie!, 15 May 2001
1/10
Author: rarome from United States

Four supposedly professional woman who have no professionalism what so ever. This film created more stereotypes than any other film I have ever seen. Every line is a "white man" put down. The one Latina professional who doesn't speak Spanish is accused of being "white washed" because she lives in West Los Angeles, so she ends up with an immigrant from Mexico and finds her roots through him. Scott Bakula's character is attacked from all sides for just being "white". A Latina lawyer who has a thick East Los Angeles accent. Where did she get educated? It seems that all these characters are stuck in the Chicano movement from the 70's and haven't figured out that we have entered a new millennium.
