Popi (1969)
Hurtful, unfunny movie
11 August 2019 - 6 out of 15 users found this review helpful.
I am an American who came from Cuba, along with my family, as a political refugees. One Uncle died in a Cuban political jail. My friend's Dad was hunted and killed in a shoot out with the Cuban gestapo. When President Johnson initiated the Freedom Flight, he did so in order to address a crisis. Cubans did not receive any special treatment, my family certainly didn't. At least Puerto Ricans have all their political freedoms intact, Cubans should be so lucky. This movie is stupid and unfunny; it makes light of a hurtful subject. If you wish to see a well made movie reflecting what happened in Cuba, see Andy Garcia's The Lost City.
