Average smutty comedy
Santiago Segura and Florentino Fernández star in this gross comedy that tries to follow the path of teenage comedies like "American Pie" or "Dude, where's my car?", in which a great deal of the gags are based on bodily fluids. The result is funny only intermittently, and I had the impression that I had already seen most of the gags somewhere else.
The two leading men seem to have been born to play these characters, although that is not to say a lot. I found Florentino Fernández much more convincing than Segura, but again, that doesn't mean a lot. Newcomer Jaydy Mitchell should stick to modeling or whatever she does as a day job, since hers is one of the worst debuts I have ever seen. The supporting players (Miriam Díaz Aroca, Elia Galera, José Luis Coll) deserved better roles and a better film.
In any case, "Isi/Disi" is acceptably entertaining but it offers nothing new. If you like gross gags and smutty jokes, then this is your kind of film. If not, better go and watch something else.
