    Pathetic acting. Pathetic dialogue. Weird direction.

    And yet, by the end, I started to feel that all that was awful, actually made sense. Its a twisted comedy that suffered because a lot of the decisions (by the actors, by the director) made the movie annoying more than funny.

    The movie is kind of "tale-like", only there is not escape from the ugliness of people, nor there is a clear answer of who is who on the tale. The situations are morally uncomfortable. The roles of the characters are not defined by their situations/status nor by the archetypes that start the story, but by their decisions. Again, I think the movie made some tragic unfunny/annoying decisions but it is quite smart and bold.

    Do not waste your money

    I went to see this movie ver excited about the cast. Francella, Peterson, perfect combination. But the movie, oh my god, the movie was a disaster. No argument, sad, negative, horrific movie... I left the cinema 1 hour before the end. Very very very disappointed Do not see this movie if you want to mantein your respect for Francella

    Not a comedy, nor even a dark comedy. Dramatic situations without pause

    I appreciate the film. To me, acting is very good. Direction is excellent. Specially the first 5 minutes which have a Hitchcock flavour. But the script is too dark, too heavy, humour is not easy to find and the film is a Little long, slow and oppressive.

    It may happen to many of us!

    This is the story of a good husband, caring father, high rank and hard worker who, because of chronic kidney failure, becomes convinced that life has been incedible unfair to him, who always tried to do things by the book. In his desperation he throws his principles away and begins to look for any solution. But, of course, things do not work out exactly as expected. Although the movie has some comedic touches, it is first and foremost a realistic human drama, one which many of us might sympathize with. The acting of all the main characters was very good. Francella is fine, as always, but Federico Salles (Elías) y Mercedes de Santis (Lucy) are also surprinsingly good. This is Argentine cinema at its best!
