I've seen "The Debut" and it's not bad. I'm a big fan of Eddie Garcia and "The Debut" is probably one of the better Film-Am films out there.
"American Adobo", I can't say I like as much. I got it on super discount at Amazon, but I really don't want it on my DVD rack anymore.
Definitely, "The Debut" over "American Adobo."
