Rating : 6/10 . Must see for every man thinking being a housewife is all fun and easy .

Spanish middle-class (upper middle-class?) life hit squarely on the head. Don't ask why a single old guy like me would watch this, but I have my reasons (perfecting my Spanish is among them). This film isn't anything we haven't seen dozens of times before: the clueless father in charge of the kids so that he can appreciate how much his wife does that he ignores.

While praising the tireless efforts of the mother, the film mocks the busy-body housewives in his chat group, so the movie tries to have it both ways. The film also perpetuates the stereotype of the Spanish woman as humorless, loud, imperious, and not-too-bright. I wish they would stop this.

Most of the attempts at humor are heavy-handed and come up short, but there are moments of dark humor that sort of make this project worthwhile. He treats their sudaca maid like some sort of low-wage slave, which is probably pretty typical of these families of semi-privilege. "Raise your own kids, clean your own toilets," will be cries of the next revolution.

Normally comedies are unintelligent, or use dirty jokes, slapstick... This comedy was funny, just tender enough to be cute without causing diabetes, and fun all the way through. Really, really recommended. I'd give it a seven, but it has a lower grade than it deserves, so I'm giving it an eight for it to get its deserved rating.

The kids deserve special mention. It must have been hell to film a movie with five child actors, but these five were REALLY good in their roles, really well chosen, and all in all, really funny. I hope to see more of them in the future.

Really recommended for a Christmas watch.

Very very very cute, what a peculiar and cute family, these light films that realistically deal with the double journey of women and especially the "home" and "mother" professions, which are so strenuous and consume 24 hours of time, whether in person or just mental, more intense when the parents are omitted, even present, as in the movie, of course with a lot of exaggerations, comical situations, and extreme cuteness of the children, but everything passionate and funny...
