Movie Nation

The director cast the sexiest sirens of Spanish language cinema...but all she's done for them is make them "Women on the Verge of Being in a Funnier Movie."

Rated: 1.5/4

Despite Everything isn't perfect, but it's just over an hour that's crammed with a lot of plot and a lot of chemistry among its four leads.

A worthless film that doesn't completely sink because of its cast. [Full Review in Spanish]

El Pais (Spain)

The greatest virtue of A pesar de todo is its ability to become an involuntary commentary on the arbitrary genesis of projects in the age of the insatiable VOD platforms. [Full Review in Spanish]

Liked it. Nothing great there, as well as predictable. But sympathetic - and attractive - actors, good chemistry, nice passtime !

The story is as simple as their mother died, and before these four sisters get their inheritance, they are tasked to know who their real father is. Unfortunately, it isn't something I would recommend for a good laugh. It's bland despite trying so hard.

Don't bother. I'm not quite sure why I did. Since I'm visually impaired I can't read sub-titles all that well so I went with the provided English over-dubbing. Sure, it's cheesy, but since I can't read the subtitle fast enough, it's the only way I can watch foreign language films. I don't know if the stilted dialogue was due to translation or just part of the script. A reelatively predictable plot.

This was neither funny nor moving. The actors seemed fine, they just needed more to work with.

It's actually terrible. Terrible from head to toes. The script has no structure, no originality and not even some work on it. The film only relies on the fame of its four protagonists, and the cameos of Almodovar icons such as glorious Marisa Paredes and Rossy De Palma. In the final twist,the film tries to emulate the charm of Almodovar,without his talent, grace or wit. A disaster.
