Great film

Don't waste your time reading the other review, go and see it!

This is a film which is funny and charming in an original way, but don't expect fast action or a twisty plot, go and watch a Hollywood movie if that's what you want.

The main character sits at the came bench every day and the same café table every evening to see what happens and whom he meets. The point of the film is not simply to see if he can find love and live happily ever after but to get to know the characters he meets and follow the discussions that develop throughout the film. The characters are very strong backed up by good acting, and has a very Spanish feel to it.

Don't waste your time...

The film shows a young man's crisis about his life and relationships.

He decides looking for real love in a square and in a bar. People that he met in that places have no structure. With retorical dialogues, the characters go building a non-stop-non-sense-pointless conversations. There's a huge waste of time in the dialogues and pointless conjectures that goes to nowhere. Try another film.
