Toss inEugenio Derbez plays as a lazy guy who's coasted thru life with the titular vocation. After he's booted from his prosperous relationship, he moves in with his sister (Salma Hayek) and struggles to make a living… or find a new woman. Toss in his cute 10-year-old nephew and you have all the elements of a sweet little comedy. Director Ken Marino is best known for his comic acting. Even though he's directed TV, this is his first feature and it shows. There's a lively comic energy thru the film, but the actual jokes are scarce. Many of the talented comic actors are just trying too hard and never manage to be funny. Even with the Latino flair, there's nothing especially unique or very amusing. (Some of the dialogue is in Spanish with subtitles.) Expand

Not worth watching and looking forward by its visuals this movie gives us. I think if there's numerous attempts for a film to end up this soggy and, for some weird reason, clichéd. If you literally want to watch this, unfortunately for you, you won't get much of the fun found in this film. Expand

How to be a Latin Lover is a movie that is humorless and stereotypes all Hispanics, which is terrible. I am part Hispanic, so when I saw this cheesy crap, I almost threw my soda at the screen no kidding. Don't watch this.

Hilarious and ridiculous, but family friendly! Loved the duo of Eugenio and Salma, and the little boy who pays Hugo is the best! Much needed escapism and laughs. Highly recommend!

This movie is so funny! Watched it last night, took my family, and will do it again! Eugenio always knows how to do it. And his chemistry with Salma is amazing

The underlying message is about family and doing the right thing. The somewhat "hollywood' ending is a little too convenient; but by then we are all rooting for the characters to have a "happy" ending. A funny, sentimental romp of a movie who doesn't take itself too serious and neither should you. Expand

The humor should have been main focus of this movie since it was a comedy. But it doesn't do amazingly well at that. The jokes are often hit or miss and Iv'e never had a laugh out loud moment in my watch through. So that tells you something.The humor should have been main focus of this movie since it was a comedy. But it doesn't do amazingly well at that. The jokes are often hit or miss and Iv'e never had a laugh out loud moment in my watch through. So that tells you something. Some scenes are very funny, but overall it's just not enough. And most of the touchy scenes are very cliche and cheesy. So overall I would call this movie a painfully average movie. Expand

Verbose and confused in the moral lesson, in the kind of comedy and in the score that tucks "Pale Blue Eyes" (The Velvet Underground, 1969) between salsa songs.

Horrible movie. There are much, much better comedies than this one. Definitely, I won't recommend this horribleness to anyone.

La actuación de Eugenio Derbez es buena y la trama es entretenida; sin embargo, es muy genérica y no aporta nada nuevo.
