David Fear Time Out Rated: 2/5 Nov 17, 2011 Full Review Ryan Stewart Slant Magazine A frustratingly underdeveloped Argentinian dramedy about the perils of emotional retreat. Rated: 1.5/4 Jan 22, 2010 Full Review V.A. Musetto New York Post Medina has taken a series of vignettes and fashioned them into a feature film as aimless as Luciano's life. Rated: 2/4 Jan 22, 2010 Full Review Kent Turner Film-Forward.com Most of the time, this Argentinean film's pace and tone fall into a despondent, desultory state Rated: 2.5/5 Jan 27, 2010 Full Review Avi Offer NYC Movie Guru A somewhat meandering, but nonetheless engaging, refreshing and character-driven drama with just the right touch of offbeat comedy. Rated: 7.0/10 Jan 24, 2010 Full Review Steve Ramos Boxoffice Magazine The latest standout drama from the vibrant New Latino Cinema. Rated: 4/5 Jan 22, 2010 Full Review Read all reviews

Liam D Towing the line between quirky comedy and pretentious drama to make an entertaining foreign film Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/06/23 Full Review Frances H 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.
