Juan Pablo Russo EscribiendoCine Cesc Gay demonstrates ability to control the pace of the comedy and handle confusing situations, but the problem is that, after the first two stories, the plots unravel without reaching a clear conclusion. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 6/10 Nov 21, 2023 Full Review Randy Meeks Espinof Cesc Gay thinly threads five shorts and tries to keep the house of cards from falling down. At first, he succeeds, but towards the end, it's impossible to sustain the artifice. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 2.5/5 Dec 5, 2022 Full Review Blai Morell Fotogramas With the invaluable help of his inseparable screenwriter Tomás Aragay, the duo [director] travels diverse arenas in comedy: from vaudeville to a Lubitsch-esque flair through unsubtle humor. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 4/5 Nov 29, 2022 Full Review Elsa Fernández-Santos El Pais (Spain) In spite of its misfires, the film exemplifies the levity that characterizes good comedies; the character's emotional and sexual life is precipitated by embarrassing moments that define us far better than heroic ones. [Full review in Spanish] Nov 28, 2022 Full Review Juan Carlos Ugarelli Cinencuentro Director and screenwriter Cesc Gay composes a sarcastic portrait that it's occasionally superficial... Sep 29, 2022 Full Review Carolina G. Guerrero EscribiendoCine These stories not to be told make a well structured comedy that leaves you wanting more.

Anthony M In a world awash with superhero movies it's refreshing to have a gem of a film that draws so much humour from human foibles and imperfections. If I had to pick the first story is the funniest, with the two characters who communicate hidden romantic feelings for each other through their pooches! Priceless :) Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/04/23 Full Review Read all reviews
