The story is set in the 60's with an outstanding art direction. The life of Jorge Rizzi, a shy corporate employee, takes a turn when he participates in a hypnosis session that frees him from his inhibitions and brings out his alter ego, unbridled and seductive: Doctor Tangalanga. At first, he uses his new powers to cheer up Sixto, a convalescent friend, and later to seduce Clara, the receptionist at the sanatorium in which Sixto is hospitalized. But things don't take long to get out of control.

Denise Pieniazek Puesta en Escena (AR) Inspired by the life of the popular comedian Doctor Tangalanga, the feature film takes some events in his life to create a fiction that moves away from the traditional biopic and exhaustive historical recreation and add some of the romantic comedy. Rated: 8/10 Aug 22, 2024 Full Review Pablo De Vita La Nación (Argentina) A predictable story but with a novel approach, this is an exhilarating legend surrounding Doctor Tangalanga... a man who turned words into a super power. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 4/5 Jan 20, 2023 Full Review Ezequiel Boetti Otroscines.com A comedy that forges its own path with respect, humor, and an enormous heart. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 4/5 Jan 19, 2023 Full Review Emiliano Basile EscribiendoCine ... An homage as simple and naif as the comedian's memorable telephone pranks. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 7/10 Jan 19, 2023 Full Review Pablo O. Scholz Clarín Centering on the '60s, the director appeals to an aesthetic that contrasts with Tangalanga's offhand, insolent humor.

Cristian s Divertida y fresca con muy buen ritmo, sin dudas un gran homenaje al doctor Tangalanga. Creo que el toque de fantasía puede no ser para todo el mundo pero envuelto en una comedia que tira en todo momento a lo ingenuo e inocentón termina pegando bastante bien. Si hubiese durado 15 minutos mas con audio de llamados reales como pasa en algunas escenas creo que le metía las 5 estrellas. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/30/23 Full Review Kevin L It is corny but very likable. Takes me back to my childhood in the 60's. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 05/10/23 Full Review Read all reviews
