Dennis B @RT61419455 Sep 14 Aunque se nota el salto generacional, ha envejecido bastante bien, mucho de los personajes están muy bien escritos, pero el punto mas fuerte, es la personalidad y caracter de los propios actores. Diria que es una trama simple con mucho mimo y pasión por los detalles.

The many plants, the chickens, the beach ball, the fake grass mats, all of the bright colors give a dreamy and hazy atmosphere that further perpetuates the confusion and detachment that Pepa is stuck in throughout the movie. The characters were wonderfully cast, the plot is melancholic and funny. See more Lucas A @RT22439559 08/14/2024 It's really charming. It narrates wemen chasing after a man who deceives them (story also replicated in his son), ending up turning them against each other. At first glance it seemed a little mundane to me, but it lifts up it's interest with the scenes that occur once people start arriving at the apartment. The man's final rescue scene is very, very bad. However, the last 30 minutes left a sweet taste. See more Jhosep G @RT48819495 01/09/2024 The way the story develops and unfolds itself using so little setting is amazing. And the way everything ends up being related, makes you get pretty immerse in the story. See more Alec B @Alec97 01/03/2024 I like the way the legacy of Franco's dictatorship is sort of unspoken motivation for each of the older characters. It's still a farce, but one where the stakes feel real. See more Kevin L @Lakeman 09/18/2023 Quite clever, well-paced, and a number of laughs amid the soap satire and farcical melodrama. I didn't recognize Banders until like twenty minutes into the movie. But credit that mostly to the skill of Almodovar and his cast more than his being so young at the time. There's a dated, 'of an era' feel to the film, but I could've also watched years sooner. Still, good fun with the likes of Maura, Serrano, Montesimos (the wacky cabby), Manver, and De Palma. 3.4 stars See more Read all reviews
