Amor de madre

This was a charming find and really enjoyed it .. dont be mislead by the review translation (me bones negra) it means "you make me angry" - not - "you make me negra " I wish people would think and stop before they post things like that.

I am talking about the title - I have no idea if this is a remake. I would not be surprised. At least the idea and the premise are not really new. But back to the original title, which is more fitting than the english title ... although it also is vacation time I reckon.

It's quite funny how the movie bookends itself with how it began - but also is different ... way different to make the tweaking work. Relationships are fragile - especially when there are things going on ... or broiling under the surface.

Still family is what counts - as some would say. And if you can dig that concept, you will be forgiving of the flaws this has. It is a light comedy after all. Nice soundtrack - especially the bookend song, but also some of the others. Witty enough not to get too sentimental ... or at least winking at the audience when it does.

Of course there are better movies then this one. It falls into the category of "easy movies" with not much new to say. However, the focus it has in the family and in the self-love rather than the typical boy-meets-girl, makes it an above average netflix movie.

Quim Gutierrez does a correct job, but Carmen Machi really stands out in this movie with some very well acted moments.

Actually it's funny and sweet. Shows how they relationship gets better through a hard time. And it's quite realistic, of you're looking for a comedy I recommend it.

No long review here just one from the heart! Acting very good and very funny! Locations beautiful! Storyline understandable! A nice movie to watch with family!
