A good movie

For those who are hesitating in watching EL CANTANTE or not, just wanted to drop a Top 5 on why to see the movie.
1. I think JLo and Marc Anthony acted very well and their team work as actors in the movie went beyond the fact that they´re a couple (and therefore were meant to act together).
2. If your grandparents or even parents were Hector Lavoe´s fans (as it is in my case) this movie can bring you closer to all that frenetic feeling that people had towards the whole Salsa movement, and it´s kind of cool to understand that!
3. Building on that, was also nice to see how the FANIA story (and the paralell of FANIA being the Motown of the latin salsa at that time) started and why the New York Salsa of the 70´s and 80´s is such an icon.
4. It´s just great to watch a movie with such a good music sound and known songs (and short enough to still enjoy them, not as in the hindy movies that the songs and dances are everlasting! - just kidding)... even if Hector Lavoe is not of my generation, you´re able to sing at least the chorus of almost every song of the guy!
5. It´s a real story, and it always makes stuff extremely interesting.
