This is a real drive-in classic! Fast, tricked out cars, a love interest, a power struggle, and even a wet-t-shirt contest. The sound isn't great during the outdoor scenes, it sounds like the actors are in a vacuum. The two things this movie has going for it is the all-latin cast, and the cars. The plot, and acting are a little on the dry side. All 'n' all though, it's not super bad movie, it's one of those, "so bad, it's good" type of flicks. The VHS copy I viewed is very clear, and was recorded on a good quality tape in SP mode.

Considering the ongoing racial controversy between mexican immigrants and white americans, this is probably the best statement (on film) ever made about a love affair between the two races.

Heather Locklear wanted the lead role in this film that eventually went to Dawn Dunlap, who was a star in another Roman Polanski film. That might be the one thing about this film that I wish was different, but it doesn't change the quality of the message being sent.

Monarex Hollywood has a lot of films that cut deep like this one does. I highly recommend it to anyone with a head on their shoulders... or anyone who just likes to watch good movies.

This is a streo type latino film.About cars and latinos with accents,and having no class.We all seen this before,even though the lead character seems to hav some good qualities.Apollonia which name is in front of the box is only in the movie for one minute,what a waste of money for Prince fans,this film is overly price.The film wa done in ealy 80's,since than we have seen better films with latinos.

I now realise why it was I could not remember this movie, other than the title at the dollar movies, (Low-riders Heartbreakers).
The only thing worth watching in this movie are the cars, when they cruise down the boulevard in their RANFLAS brings back so many memories. I remember hanging out watching the cars hop, scrape, and dance.

This movie just drags, and the music is bad. The people in charge of the music should have had their head examined, there was just no research. No oldies, no disco, no soul, not even a spanish song! just a generic rip off of Blondies Rapture and some other c-r-a-p, even their generic wannabe jazz is bad.

If you have to watch this rent it, or borrow it. If you must have it i'll sell you my copy cheep.Watch Boulevard Nights, American Me, Bound By Honor, Mi vida Loca, A million To Juan, Mi Familia, Zoot Suit, all these movies have better stories and plots.
Another movie to stay away from is Lowrider Weekend.
