A man learns the hard way that, when it comes to women, three is more than a crowd in this frantic
comedy.
Tomas Fuentes (
Eduardo Verástegui) is a successful advertising man living in Los Angeles who has a way with the ladies. Almost too much of a way, in fact, since he's currently dating three beautiful women in three different cities:
Lorena (
Roselyn Sanchez), a bright and attractive lawyer living in Chicago;
Cici (
Sofía Vergara), a cocktail waitress from Miami with a fiery personality; and
Patricia (
Jaci Velasquez), a New Yorker looking to get out from under the domineering shadow of her mother. As it happens, all three women are fans of noted television astrologer
Walter Mercado, and on his advice, they each decide to take a bold step in their relationships and visit
Tomas in L.A. Needless to say, the women are enraged to discover
Tomas' rather spectacular infidelity, but that turns out to be the least of his problems after a mixture of booze and tranquilizers lands him in the hospital, a pair of crooks (
D.L. Hughley and
Freddy Rodriguez) kidnap him, and he discovers
Cici and
Patricia are wanted by the law. Produced under the title
Papi Chulo,
Chasing Papi was the first feature film from director
Linda Mendoza after an extensive resume of credits in television
comedy.
