{movie} the lost city (2005)

Those seeking a scorching time in Havana know to head for the club run by impresario Fico (Andy Garcia). But the party's soon over when political strife overtakes Cuban life as the Batista government falls and a Marxist regime is installed by none other than Fidel Castro. Unable to make a go of it in his beloved country, Fico heads for New York, where he hopes he can start anew. Dustin Hoffman and Bill Murray co-star.

ireviewnetflix.com rating: *** A very good, albeit very slow, look at a family's involvement in the Cuban revolution. The cast was phenomenal, but the story was a bit slow in parts and made it hard to stay interested. Overall a decent movie with some great moments. Bill Murray stands out once again in another great role.
