View MoreStory: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.
I suspected some who have seen this might be put off by the premise of the movie but although particular instances might be predictable I still found it entertaining and the premise isn't so far fetched. I can say I know of more than one family where relationships were not always as they were stated but I don't want to give away too much.The cinematography is great. The opening sequences and titles are very imaginative and the end credits also do it justice as well.Loved the zany end credit by the way.
View MoreAn attempt at Hollywood screwball; couple meet cute, initiate a relationship under a not very credible premise, complications arise but everything falls into place at the end. Argentine Diego Peretti and Spaniard Maribel Verdu are charismatic actors and play well together but the script is weak, and some characters are clichés such as the precocious-smart-aleck kid played by Guadalupe Manent (she gets far too much screen time, and her musical number at the end is tasteless). The movie is watchable and at times entertaining, but in the end doesn't amount to much.Among the positives: fluid direction and excellent cinematography. You get to see some beautiful buildings and places in Buenos Aires and environs.
