Watch Mala Mala For Free

Very disappointing...

Yo, there's no way for me to review this film without saying, take your *insert ethnicity + "ass" here* to see this film,like now. You have to see it in order to know what you're really messing with.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties. It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

I got this from Strand Releasing, which does Independent film distribution and has many great titles."Mala Mala" is the over inflated look at a bunch of boring, egotistically dull men who dress up as women. Vain, monotonous, and tiresome. Most of them work as prostitutes because they say there are no other jobs, but actually, they don't want to work elsewhere because the money is better in prostitution.Many of them have a serious case of self identity disorder, which causes someone to seek plastic surgery constantly, like older women.It plainly is dull.

This is an excellent documentary that showcase the individual stories of transsexuals and drag queens, a community that often overlaps which each other. You are looking at the most marginalized group of LGTTB individuals, who they are, how they see themselves and what are their aspirations. The way Dan Sickles and Antonio Santini captured a down-to-earth real life middle-class Puerto Rico yet present it in an alluring way is nothing less than brilliant. As someone who grew up in Puerto Rico I can confirm the authenticity of the landscape and the people. In the 2.5 yrs span that took to shoot the documentary the filmmakers managed to wave an interested and poignant plot culminating with a satisfactory victory. Nothing like Paris is Burning, is not really fair to compare both because the tone, the intent and the narratives are completely different.

What an incredible and important film. Especially in the wake of gay marriage legislation and the imminent need for the United States and the rest of the world to recognize and accept the LBGT community. The women and men in this film open up so beautifully to reveal their daily lives and the struggle associated with being different in the eyes of standard society. Their resilience and passion is electric. The film is beautifully shot. It's easy to forget you're watching a documentary when the characters are so honest and engaging and the cinematography is exceptional.This film is a must see, highly recommend.

Mala Mala not only captures the dazzling lives of Puerto Rico's trans gendered community, but also accomplishes the rarest of all documentary missions -- we witness favorable changes in the governmental legal system about a country's treatment of trans gender. America doesn't yet have that legislation; however, with films like Mala Mala, there's hope that one day the world will recognize this community which deserves -- and needs - our support. The film's is shot and edited in a fantastic rhythmic style that opened my eyes to a situation that might take place in another county, but lands on America's doorstep. The story is on point, and I felt privileged to step into the lives of the participants.
