Permis de tromper

How often do you see an Argentinean Romcom? They're about as common as horse feathers but not as funny, if this is an example.

All the ingredients are there. The winning Lali Espósito heads up a personable cast, even singing the play out music, and the film zips along with good living detail. Unfortunately they are re-treading the not all that funny premise of HALL PASS and it's the drear combination of people talking dirty but not getting naked and enthusiastic build ups to jokes that don't have a punch line.

Dorky Martín Piroyansky nominates model Liz Solari as someone he'd like to get it on with and his long time fiancée Espósito says it will never happen and he could have a free pass to fill that fantasy. Sure enough his motor bike hits the bag snatcher who made off with Solari's Louis Vuiton and things go from there, with Espósito's eco freak nominated object of desire Vicuña and his stalker Bustamante getting in on the act. Piroyansky becomes a celebrity and the whole thing gets to be subject of a TV show.
