Wonderful character development!
... View MoreThe biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.
... View MoreExcellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.
... View MoreI 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.
... View MoreI have vague memories of "House of Buggin," but I remember it kept me in stitches throughout the whole show. What I do remember is what I believe was the pilot episode: a skit about a modern day Latino gang rivaling against The Jets from "West Side Story." I about lost my mind when John and the rest of "the Jets" came sneaking up, snapping their fingers and threatening to "rumble" with switch blades... the modern gang had guns.Throughout the years, Fox has had a mean habit of cancelling really promising shows prematurely. I believe this show was one of the few that could have stood the test of time. It was NOT an "In Living Color" ripoff, anymore than "In Living Color" was a rip off of "Saturday Night Live," or "Saturday Night Live" was a rip off of "Laugh In," and etc. But perhaps, America was not ready for John being incapable of saying the word "regularly" and other Latino stereotypes that are now systematically mocked on "Mind of Mencia." Come on, Fox! Dig this one out of your vaults and put it on DVD already!
... View MoreI was so happy when House of Buggin was first introduced on Television. It was great to see another Latino comedy show that I truly enjoyed and haven't been so proud to see a Latino comedian since Fredy Prinze on Chico and the Man. I haven't seen these shows on DVD, but I would be the first in line to purchase them. I was smart enough back in 1995 to record these shows. Now my teenage daughters have enjoyed them and we quote the shows all the time. These shows brought more laughter into our home. House of Buggin was truly on the edge. The characters were hilarious. Even though John Legizamo made fun of our heritage, it was tastefully done and the best thing he brought out was the fact that as Latinos, we make fun of ourselves all the time which made it real. I would recommend them to anyone. I say GOOD job John, your are truly a TALENT! BRAVO!
... View Morei just want to hear or see this skit again tape it record it save to my computer anything.That being, the Mexican militant minute where John says" we interrupt your regularly....or tries to say it...scheduled program. i think the other comments i read were correct in saying this show should have not been dropped by fox.It was a great show he is a fantastic comedian, he has done well in movies, but i do miss him on television.If anyone has this little bit of TV available please advise how i may obtain itThank you Sara
... View MoreJohn Leguizamo is an amazing and under-rated talent. This show was so funny I was laughing out loud. Having now lived in Europe for three years, I am reminded on each visit home, how bland and "cookie cutter" - esque American TV was/is. I think many people were put-off by having a Latino-based show, and House of Buggin' never really got the chance it deserved. Maybe a lot of people didn't "get" the jokes. Although I liked In Living Color, there were many skits that I found too slapstick and childish. (I still don't understand how Jim Carrey got to where his is today.)House of Buggin' was a wonderful showcase for John Leguizamo's talent.
