Spanglish Summary John Clasky (adam Sandler) Is A Devoted Dad Whose Skills As A Chef Have Afforded His Family (t=e9a Leoni, Cloris Leachman) A Very Upscale Life, Including A Summer Home In Malibu And A Breathtaking New Housekeeper, Flor (paz Vega), Who Has Recently Immigrated To L.a. From Mexico, And Is Trying To Find A Better Life For Her Remarkable Daughter, Cristina (shelbie Bruce), Who Is Rapidly Embracing The American Way Of Life. When Flor And Cristina Move In With The Claskys For The Summer, Flor Has To Fight For Her Daughter's Soul As She Discovers That Life In A New Country Is Perilous...especially When You're Being Embraced By An Affluent, Eccentric American Family.

Anyone familiar with writer/director James L. Brooks (Broadcast News, As Good As It Gets) knows the man has a real feel for interesting women and a disarming way with a one-liner. The main women in Spanglish are Deborah Clasky (Téa Leoni), a moneyed SoCal mom, and non-English speaking Flor Moreno (Paz Vega), the beautiful Latina whom Deborah hires as a housekeeper. The one-liners, some of them amusing, are everywhere. Brooks provides an intriguing set-up for the two women to butt heads--Deborah's pudgy daughter Bernice (Sarah Steele) needs the affection at which Flor excels, while Flor's clever, bi-lingual daughter Cristina (Shelbie Bruce) is enamored of the financial advantages Deborah can provide--then proceeds to make Deborah so hatefully ignorant you can't imagine why her neuroses are the main thrust of the film. And Deborah's celebrated chef husband John (Adam Sandler, way over his head) is such a perfect parent he doesn't seem human--what happened to the Brooks who had Terms of Endearment mom Debra Winger turn to her scowling little boy and grunt "Don't make me hit you in the street"? Cloris Leachman has a nifty supporting role as Deborah's boozy, ex-jazz singer mother, but it's only one offbeat chord in an earnest film that hits all the wrong notes. --Steve Wiecking
