Falling in love with an uptown girl, Dinero must conceal his ties with the violent underworld. Edgar may run, but can t hide from the corrupt cops and the war for power among his men. Will he live as the Boss of the Underworld or as the King of Reggaeton?
Talento de Barrio Reviews:
Pleasantly surprised by acting quality, script, originality 
2009-10-26 - I've been an on again-off again DY fan for a few years now and waited a long time to see this movie because, like many others, I was skeptical. I actually found a bootleg feed of the Talento de Barrio on the internet and enjoyed it so much, I purchased the DVD to re-enjoy the movie with better picture and sound. I think it is a mistake to dismiss this movie as unimportant simply because it stars a "teen-idol" reggaeton star. It's not often that people who are not from PR get to see "that side" of Puerto Rico in the media. The photography is reminiscent of the Dominican Republic footage in Michael Mann's Miami Vice (2006) and very real. I also think the dialog and acting are very good, very authentic (Yes, DY's performance in this movie is quite good). We, die-hard reggaeton/Puerto Rican hip hop, fans are used to hearing the common slang and idiomatic expressions set the music but rarely do we hear how those dudes speak when they're just hangin' out in their hoods--the linguistic patters, body language, the style of dress, etc. Bottom line is that there aren't many genuine Puerto Rican movies that make it to the mainstream and if you want to know how the other half live in PR, here's your chance. By the way, the film does address themes of drugs, violence, sex, etc. so don't get it for your children unless you are planning on sitting down with them and explaining what they are seeing.

Didn't like it
2009-05-31 - I didn't really get much information on this product before ordering it. I was NOT happy with it. I bought it for my son (4 years old) who is a fan of DY and all the cursing and violence made me give this movie away to a friend. I was hoping for music videos.
