No sos vos, soy yo

It's a very good movie, dynamic, with a plenty of scenes in which you can hear the audience laugh and laugh. Diego Peretti is a pleasure, he acts so good that this movie really worth it.Cecilia Dopazo is great here and it was really good to see her name in the Casting and in the texts also. Soledad Villamil is great especially after seeing her acting in " Locas de amor" a TV series shown in Montevideo last year.Her part its so different from that I have seen in this series that really surprises.

Marcos Mundstock it is not a surprise at all. This great comic actor known here for his career in " Les Luthiers" personalizes here a psychiatrist quite drunk in some parts.

And of course it is a great scene of a dog giving birth.Great, great, great shot.

Javier is a doctor that lives with her girlfriend, Maria. They have decided to go living to the US in order to have a better life. Maria travels before to make contacts and, the day that Javier is going to go (after selling his house, leaving his job...) she calls him to tell him that she has been with another man and needs to think what to do. Without job, girlfriend nor house, Javier fells in a great depression. He buys a little dog and results to be a Great Danish...When things cannot be worse, he meets Julia and love starts between them. Unluckily, a few days later, Maria call to tell him that she is going to return with him, which will push him into a very hard situation. The story, though complicated, seems interesting, but the result is quite bad. The movie tries to be a different romantic comedy with a very great drops of drama, and the problem is that the movie becomes nothing: it is not a comedy, it is not a drama and it is not a mix of both; the mixture is not well done. In addition, Diego Peretti (who plays the main character)has not a great day, his acting is not very convincing and the fact that the character is quite repulsive makes things worse. Moreover, the movie spends two hours to tell us a story that could be told in a hour and a half so it has a light lack of rhythm. On the other hand, the rest of the actors are not bad and the story is well built and logic. I've been a little disappointed with this film, because I expected something better. The plot is interesting, but the result could have been better.

NO SOS VOS, SOY YO (It's not you, it's me) is about an Javier and Maria, middle age Argentinean couple, living in a dangerous monotony, that decide to move to USA looking for better opportunities. Maria travels first, and few weeks later, announces Javier (her husband) that she had met somebody. The matrimony is over, and so is Javier's life. The movie comically (but sometimes very sour) documents his actions trying to overcome his depression about his failure in life, future and relationship.

The movie stands above almost every recent (failed) love history recently in cinema; mostly because it does a great effort to avoid common places and situations. Dialogs and situations are very realistic but funny. Sadly, many of the best jokes will be very difficult to understand without knowledge of the Argentinean Spanish. Ultimately, are the writers (one of them is the only good woman in the movie) who give up and go for the easy way out; probably to satisfy most of the public.

However, the main problem with the story is the main character. Diego Peretti is a very good actor (as is Soledad Villasmil, as the cheating wife), but his character is too real for his own good. It is unpleasant and very very difficult to like; making very difficult to feel any kind of sympathy for a person that you can bear even on the screen.

Overall, the movie is not bad at all. It is not an easy comedy but a light and finally optimistic drama.

(Quoting) -What are you gonna do tonight?, -I'm gonna chop off my balls, but maybe i'll leave for tomorrow. That's the best side of being alone, one can do things whenever he wants!

This is just a taste of Javier's obscure sense of humour when his life takes a new direction, after his long-term relationship and brand new wife, tells him that she met someone else and wants to leave him.

The film is a laugh from the beginning to the end, as the main character, (Diego Peretti) tries to reconstruct his life, and get over Maria (Soledad Villamil), with comfort from his best friend, Martin, and the help of a psychoanalyst,(Marcos Mundstock from Les Luthiers).

Characters and situations as real, as life itself; sad, but taken care of, as big problems, also can have a funny side... and the tenderness of falling in love again.

Do not expect a 'super-honey-sweet film', it's a love story, but it shows the bitter side as well.

Thirty-year-old Javier is a surgeon and in his free time works as a disc jockey. He decides to marry and move to the United States with his girlfriend María. They make all their plans; they wed, and then María is the first to move and make contacts in their new home, while Javier packs up in Argentina and prepares to start his new life in the States. While he is on the way to the airport, he receives a call from María telling him that she is confused and has been seeing someone else.

Funny, after an interesting start, a slow and almost boring development, a bit of a drag to watch, a simple plot but with little captivating content... Poor Javier, but women run away from this type of man, clingy and clingy in a way not very comfortable, a little insecure, a little boring and rather boring, as well as forced to the extreme, without the sense of inconvenience, needy and desperate... But at least he's good and made the right choice... Cute little movie...
