    VeteranLight I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

    BoardChiri Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay
    Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
    badgkav4 March 16, 2006 We have watched the entire series on DVD. We are movie buffs. This has to be one of our all time favorites. The writers were able to bring the very best of the Hispanic culture to the screen, along with other aspects of the culture which can bring heartache and sorrow to the family. The actors were all cast well and did an excellent job of bringing their characters to life. The family was able to show their unity and love for one another, while struggling with problems within the community and within the family structure. We laughed and cried with so many moments. BeBe and Carlos were my favorite characters. Thank you for bringing a wonderful series which not only moved us but allowed the viewers to experience the ups and downs of the American Hispanic culture. LOVED this show......and did not want it to end.
    graphicdisaster I started watching Resurrection Blvd. about 2 years and found it to be a compelling drama with an attractive cast. Issues the Santiago family faced were self-identity, homosexuality, rape, gambling death of a loved one and so on. Being that there were fans of the show, why did Showtime cancel it? The run was not long and there was no grand finale. Anyone have details behind this cancellation? Perhaps Showtime will produce a series finale movie to give the show and it's fans some closure that it deserves!
    George Parker Resurrection Boulevard (RB) is not about boxing, romantic love and sex, gangbangers and crime, Mexican/American culture, or life in an East L.A. barrio though all are components. RB is about a family.RB is not a soapy melodrama or silly sitcom or a gritty docudrama about a downtrodden underclass. RB is, however, a serious though somewhat sanitized attempt to show the day-to-day struggles of an all adult family and the ties that bind them; loyalty, love, heritage, and religious conviction.Perhaps the most refreshing and satisfying aspect of RB is the way it avoids the cheap, cheesy, trite and proven ways of maintaining audience interest. There are no cliff hangers, no phony happy endings, no schmaltz or tear jerking, and no melodrama. There is, however, a staunch adherence to the true character of the shows principals and a sense of integrity and noble purpose.The makers of RB should be commended for gambling that the transcendent humanity of the series would bridge the culture gap and satisfy the appetites of the viewing public at large sufficient to be successful. Let's hope their efforts are not in vain.
    gregar I enjoyed Resurrection Blvd's first episode a great deal! Not only is it a rare drama about a Latino family, but it seems so real and refreshing! Yes, it contains all the soap-opera/drama elements, but there's more... a darker/more truthful side. No details here, as it could spoil the show for someone. There's a whole family of interesting, realistic men and women who just seem to grow on you too quickly. The production values are excellent, the acting above average and the casting is out of sight! A little patience may be necessary as it will certainly take a little while for the actors to iron out all the wrinkles in their characters, but it will be a reward to see this show grow!
