                Yes, go to the beach instead...

                When both Ismael Rodríguez and Tin Tan were in their prime, they made this film that looks and sounds worst than it is, due to Ferrusquilla's obnoxious narration, unrestrained overacting by all, Raúl Lavista's insufferable score, and Tongolele's incomprehensible diction. Rodríguez was one of the top names in Mexican film industry in the 1940s and 1950s, since his brother Roberto created the recording system that launched sound film in Mexico, and with their brother José Luis they created the powerful production company Rodríguez Hermanos. By 1951 he had turned singer Pedro Infante into a mega-star, so it is not wonder that he was able to recruit an army of top Mexican comics around Tin Tan, and the exotic dancer Tongolele. But the humor is so bad, and Tongolele's dances so vapid, that -again- this time you'd rather go to the beach.
