It's an amiable confection with a touch of cold fury at its heart. Most Argentinians will understand the pain behind the comedy.

As they build to the main event, the filmmakers offer enough small surprises to engage us.

Súper buena, atrapa la situación con los personajes! Muy emotiva. La actuación de Andrés Parra fue buena a pesar de no ser argentino. 10/10

A funny and entreteined movie. The dramatic moments aren't as important as they could be, but at the end the better thing of the movie is its kind of comedy.
