    Full of sad Latino stereotypes

    Screaming Latinos... Families that fight all the time... Unfaithful wives, husbands, girlfriends, boyfriends... All of the sad and shameful Latino stereotypes are present in this movie, which lack a coherent plot or central crisis to at least give some sense to the endurance.

    The movie centers around a girl who wants to emulate "La Lupe", one of the greatest and most passionate singers in the history of Latin America, and who is actually like a cult figure to many. The imitation done by the main actress seems to be the gimmick to justify the movie, but actually there is no substance in the plot and no sympathetic characters.

    "La mala" means "The Bad", which is a proper title for this movie.
