Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
A rare and harsh gem of a film, Mi Vida Loca tells the story of young Hispanic women in Los Angeles and the struggles they have in a life of gangs, drugs, and personal betrayal. Mousie (Seidy Lopez) and Sad Girl (Angel Aviles) are best friends from childhood, growing up in gang-infested Echo Park and remaining loyal to each other. But when Sad Girl sleeps with Mousie's boyfriend (a drug dealer who is killed) and becomes pregnant, their friendship is ruptured. As the violence of their neighborhood erupts around them, they must try to stay together as friends despite their betrayals. This is an unforgiving look at a world where women seem to have no choice but to raise their children, deal drugs, and survive by whatever means necessary. Director Allison Anders (Gas Food Lodging) structures the film as a series of unflinching and vivid anecdotes, bringing insight to a tragic side of modern society. --Robert Lane

I watched this movie years ago and it always stuck with me. I recently purchased it and watched it with my 14-yr-old step-daughter who is obsessed with gangs.

A fantastic piece of work that does for latina gang life what Boogie Nights did for the porn industry, which is the thorough humanization of its protagonists.

This is clearly the most honest and sympathetic gangster film ever produced, but it's also lyrically cinematic, even semi-mythical at times. It really stays with you and features many wildly and subtly attractive women, particularly Angel Aviles, and Salma Hayek (in ... Read More

I had seen this movie about 8 years ago, and was looking for it ever since. It is a little exaggerated, but all movies are. I like it because it is based on reality. I enjoyed it!

this movie is an A man strait up. it's one of the best representing the life of the poor homegirls from the barrio. it could have been better, but those were the ways, and that's how things were in those times in the streets. two homitas down for life, then they get jumped in, then damn here comes a vato. messes it all up. here comes betrayal, hardships, and parenting. you got to run the streets and do your thing at home. it's hard in a place like that, and even harder to get out. that's the way of the world ...

Interesting story. I enjoyed seeing this story from the young women's point of view; seeing what they had to go through. Great film.
