[PLEASE HELP] "Blood In Blood Out" or "American Me?"

[ShoulderRoll]

Which of these two classics is the better Mexican gang movie?

[-MarGODitO-]

American Me! That movie ****s on every black or brown gang/hood movie.

Can never go wrong on movies that are based on a true story. Blood In Blood Out was more like a comedy to me. Wack.

As far as better,more credible serious movie , American me easily.entertaining tho is blood in blood out.

Blood in Blood out was just a rip off of American Me.

Blood In Blood Out is my favorite Chicano/Mexican gang movie......but American Me is far more "realistic" probably. Both are great.

It's not a gang movie, but the best movie about Chicano life and the Mexican Barrios is Stand and Deliver.

I agree, I recognize that American Me is the better flim but I personally enjoy Blood In Blood Out more, mainly because I think it's a funner film and I have been quoting it with my friends since I was like 12 years old. Probably the most unintentionally hilarious movie I've ever seen. It's got pretty iconic characters like Milkweed, Popeye, pre-pig Paco, Cruzito, Big Al, Montana, Magic, and Chuey.

Stand and Deliver is a good film, but I found the educating-the-troubled-youth theme a bit boring. Edward James Olmos and Lou Diamond Phillips were great in it though.

Any of you c*nts know who the norteņos and sureņos were in these movies? I have an idea, but I still don't know for sure.

I lived in Cali for a while and met some of these cats from both cliques. Never occurred for me to ask. I think that one of my norteņo friends mentioned that Olmos played the part of a norteņo in "American Me." Just curious.

For the record, I don't care for gangs, just saying.

La Eme (Mexican Mafia) = Sureņos

Nuestra Famila = Norteņos
