The greatest Bio Movie ever made!! Lou diamond Phillips and cast give amazing performances. Tim Treakle

This was a fantastic movie. It’s a biopic about a musician who worked with Buddy Holly. The music was awesome. This movie is in the criterion collection. It was also about California.

Filme perfeito... Bem feito... Objetivo com a breve carreira do jovem Ritchie Valens! Com a parte mística de seus pesadelos para aprimorar o então porquê da tragédia!

What a classic. Esai Morales’ performance as Bob is truly memorable.

Love this movie. NRJ.

It's the best performance I've ever seen. great story, great actors.

This is the true story of Los Angeles teenager Ritchie Valens played by Lou Diamond Phillips in his feature debut directed by Luis Valdez The film is largely based on Valens’ tragically ironic lifelong fear of flying, which began when a friend was killed in a plane crash when Valens was a kid Phillips really sells it as Valens singing straight from his heart and his mixed up home life The music is so memorable and toe-tapping Plus this has a tremendous amount of Hispanic culture to boost The dynamic between Ritchie and Bob is believable enough as they are constantly fighting for each other's approval Sad to say once again the artist's life was cut so short, he had his whole life ahead of him with his music and ready to marry But the effect he had on not just the Latino music industry but all of America was something truly extraordinary This is a very good biopic after 35 years if not an entirely perfect one Yet it manages to distill its subject's creative energy -- and reflects his music's enduring appeal The script manages to make all the players likable flaws and such with a colorful time period as well as rocking tunes

Una carta de amor al cine.

An absolute heartbreaking, but engaging biopic of the amazing Ritchie Valens.

Great tribute to a legend and really great acting. Great movie
