Carlos Munoz (Julio Alvarado) is a former drug dealer who emerges from prison after serving four years in this predictable anti-drug propaganda drama. He is horrified to learn that his little brother became addicted and is now in an asylum. Carlos opens an electronics repair shop and vows to turn his life around. He helps the street kids, battles his former drug-dealing buddies, and falls in love with the local teacher Elena Sandoval (Helena Rojo). ~ Dan Pavlides, All Movie Guide

"Lalo el Mimo" or Eduardo de la Peña stars in this unusual comedy as a lottery ticket winner. Instead of investing in stocks or huge houses, Rafael Lara (the character el Mimo plays) has set up four of his friends in auto repair businesses. In addition to that, though, he has a fondness for the ladies, and can't seem to stop marrying them. Before long, he has four wives and four separate (and very elegant) homes for them. Eventually the authorities get wind of these illegal goings on (one wife per customer, please) and put him in jail. However, he has fulfilled the secret dreams of many of those who put him in jail, and he is much admired by them. ~ Clarke Fountain, All Movie Guide
