The (Almost) Legends is somewhat of an allegory of cultural elements of a region that has influenced many other areas of the country and abroad. [Full review in Spanish]

Common Sense Media

When the burping of a tuba is the signal that we're supposed to laugh, you know you're watching a movie that's struggling to be funny. But there's something admirably dogged about this effort.

Rated: 2/5

Decider

The (Almost) Legends is warm in tone and visually clever, but only amusing in fits and starts, and any ruminations on grief and loss are left in the dust of its consistent silliness.

It begins all conjunto cute and jaunty and finishes with a banda band flourish. But it’s the dull, cluttered and formulaic middle acts that let the picture down.

Rated: 1.5/4

We have here a movie that unfortunately lives up to the old saying: a good script can save a bad movie. This without in any way detracting from the great work of the creative body of the project, especially the actors... [Full review in Spanish]

So fresh! Although the dubbed version completely ruins this master piece for anyone not fluent in the native Spanish language of the movie. All time favorite for sure, but English voice overs must be redone!
