Having an inside look into the wealthy society of Mexico, for the first time a production of my country takes place in another location of Mexico out of the capital city, Guadalajara. The cast was perfect, all of the actors and actresses, specially the lead one, make an exceptional work in portraying their characters and making them enjoyable and in ocations, funny. Combining the satirical-comedic-dramatic- and political genres, the series capture a very good aura. It also has a good soundtrack and a very well-included social diversity. It was also refreshing to see familiar faces like Benny Emmanuel, Loreto Peralta, Michelle Rodríguez, Marimar Vega, and Luis Felipe Tovar, as part of the cast. A very good Mexican production. If you don't have any kind of social prejudice, I recommend you to watch it.

This is one of the stressful the office episodes to watch, yeah Michael can be hard at sometimes but he didn't deserved the treat everyone were giving to him. Dude if there was a real-life Michael probably there would have been less boring in life people, he even made party birthdays for each one of his co-workers. Out of Toby, the one Michael hates a lot, he was always there for them in trying to help, yeah in some strange and not very good ways, but he was always caring for them, yet in this episode everyone treats him like trash. Stanley is an ass as always, Dwight, Andy and Jim tried to be good, but in the end they needed the work, however they also act very cold with him instead of explaining better why they couldn't leave their job to go with him, but yet they did were concern for him so there was no big deal with them; Creed has no idea on nothing, Angela always being a b***ch (hate the part where she closes the document drawer with her feet while Michael was looking for something), Meredith and Kelly whatever, Oscar being intelligent and one of the worst characters at the same time, Kevin doing stupid comments, Phyllis uninterested, and that dude Charles Miner, the worst of worst, and also the security guard, he could of been at least more cared with him for the years they known each other. Pam is the only one who cared the most, in personal beliefs but she proved why her friendship with Michael was special, it is really stupid to know there are many people calling her the worst character when she was never like that. In the end, the treats from almost every single character in this episode was really stressing to watch, to the point of being really annoying and make you anger.

After years and years of boring and vulgar Mexican films, this one goes head above water. I know there are two other "The Grand Seduction" films, the original from 2002 and the first remake of 2013, yet this is the first one I am seeing and I completely loved it. Characters are fun and relatable, all of them play their parts in a pretty good way. The music was on point too, something very different out of the "corridos", "corridos tumbados", "banda sinaloense", "rap" etc. That we are used to see in every single film of the current era in Mexican cinematography. Music comes with a refreshing reminder to old school Mexican Rock bands such as Fobia and Caifanes, with a very good selection of classic songs. The comedy was on point as well, without the necessity of using bad words every single five minutes. Oh, and loved the Cumbia version of "Antes de que nos olviden" of Caifanes, sang by Héctor Jiménez, best known for his role as "El Esqueleto" in Nacho Libre. A well-recommended film to watch.
