Barbara Shulgasser Common Sense Media Offbeat Spanish satire has language and sex. Rated: 2/5 Aug 27, 2019 Full Review John Serba Decider It's colorful and mostly endearing, but as a collection of jokes and light romance, it never really gets much of comedic traction. Aug 21, 2019 Full Review Alberto Luchini El Mundo (Spain) There is some originality in here, but the film never takes off. [Full Review in Spanish] Rated: 1/5 May 3, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews

isla s This is a somewhat wacky and certainly cheesy Spanish film. I imagine it could be seen as somewhat controversial given the political aspect of the Basque region wanting independence from Spain but this film is clearly a comedy. The comedy is mostly visual and fairly basic. Its a fairly gentle comedy I'd say, although it does (as I say) have a bit of a wacky feel to it, with characters literally putting their feet in it and so on. I found it an easy and somewhat entertaining watch. I quite enjoy Spanish (and French) films with if but mildly eccentric characters - such characters do seem perhaps a little exaggerated but then I suppose I don't know anyone from either country, so I could be wrong of course. In any case, I found this an enjoyable and fairly entertaining watch, if you can ignore the somewhat political aspect of the film. Any film that can use the word 'hornswoggled' can't be too awful (right?). Yes I'd recommend this film, if it sounds of interest. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member A fun romp. Taken on its own merits its a fun short film. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Read all reviews
