" Based on the life story, of Selena Quintanilla, played by Jennifer Lopez which tracked her career, from the beginning, to it’s potential to become a cross over superstar, to a life tragically cut short, by her death. Critics gave the film, mostly positive reviews and singled Lopez’s performance as Selena. Some however felt that the movie, didn’t do her enough justice, and that it was a “typical Hollywood film, that plays face service to Latino music and culture, and Selena herself.”"

"Jennifer Lopez as Selena Let me repeat that! Jennifer Lopez as Selena! This was yet another example of Hollywood ignorance, making Latino groups interchangeable despite there being huge differences. As a Spanish-speaking Southwesterner, I say that the stereotypically Nuyorican Jennifer Lopez can't pass as a Chicana. Fuck, I'm half Slavic and I've been told that I'm more convincing as a Mexican! "
