The Legend of Iris Chacon

(5 out of 5 stars)
"While Marc Anthony is top-billed here, it is clear this movie won't be remembered for him. The dancing in this movie is the real focal point. Unlike the acting and the plot, the dances really do stand out (though you have to get to the latter half of the film to enjoy them). The most unforgettable dance number is Conga, Bongo y Timbal. This number features Iris Chacon, Puerto Rico's inimitable sex symbol. Reported to have measured 36-24-40, she was not shy about wearing bold costumes like the gold "teddy" she uses here. This be-thonged costume showcases her legendary posterior end. Before J.Lo, there was Iris. Though J.Lo was more successful, Iris was clearly more, uh, talented (and a better dancer). Is it coincidence that both women have worked with Marc Anthony? Certainly. In short, if you're a fan of Iris Chacon, this DVD is not to be missed."
