Frances H 01/21/2015 So boring, I stopped watching after 45 minutes with not only no interesting characters and not much of a plot, but worse for a comedy, no laughs. See more 09/17/2012 La actuación de Hendler en esta peli es todo. See more 06/27/2011 Better than average offbeat comedy. See more 04/16/2011 A luta de um cidadão contra todos os seus medos. E não são temores nada fora do real. See more 01/23/2011 Una pelicula simple pero que esta bastante bien. See more 07/11/2010 Una trama simple con un buen acompañamiento musical, donde lo que resalta es el personaje principal, por lo bien logrado que está, en su definición e interpretación. Un personaje que puede parecer oscuro, por lo diferente, pero que nos regala una historia de amor tierna que raya la inocencia. Cine argentino del bueno, sin dudas. See more Read all reviews
