Inspiración

I have read many comments about this one, and i agree a little maybe the acting inst that good, and the lead actors are the ones that attract people to watch this movie, Barbara is one of the hottests women on earth. But if you see this is like a independent Mexican movie, and there are totally pointless movies that have better critics than this one like lost in translation.

Inspiracion could be better i cant deny that, but what it shows makes the point, if you are Latin you can get the jokes, and i know you don't have to be intelligent to catch this one, but you have to be it to catch any romantic movie?

I had a good time watching this movie, this a good Mexican alternative and attempt a great movie. With a good message if you get it. i loved it for that. Give it a shoot, don't expect an Oscar , Mexican movies are growing

I wish all my dates would end like this!

I mean, the plot is oriented for the upper social classes in México let me tell you. The places where the couple visit are really expensive and exclusive but I guess the director's intention was to display how love can come across all barriers.

Barbara Mori is simply spectacular on her looks; she's extremely sexy, hot and she can also act. The chemistry between her and De la Torre worked perfect for the movie because it looked like both had a great time working together.

I can recommend this movie for a first date; it will do some magic. Otherwise, just watch it when it airs on t.v. it's not worth your money.

"Inspiración" is part of México's new way of making romantic comedies.

I disagree completely with all of those people who have given this movie such a poor rating. First of all this is romantic comedy,there fore we know that it must have a good-feeling ending to it. I was really impressed with the acting job that gabriel and alejandra did. The facial expressions and the body language sells every situation that he encounters. You don't doubt for one moment that he is really in love with alejandra, and that he would do anything to get the opportunity to be at her side. The music selection for this movie is absolutely awesome! They have used the music that captures each moment. jumbo, erik rubin, el circo, to the main title song Inspiracion from benny... the music is great!! hands down. the only thing I didn't like is that it was over rather quickly. could have used a little more time and imagination in the ending.

Best part of the movie is the quote at the beginning.... check it out!!!!

I think this is a great movie, I am Mexican, thus i really get the point of the movie, i find that it really represents a Mexican situation of dating, and that kind of things.

Its a great romantic movie, but at the same time its a great comedy, you laugh all the time, i love Arath De la Torre's actuation, i found it really original and very comic In a simple way. Rodrigo Oviedo's actuation, as Gabriel friend, is also great.. its the first movie I see both of them and like the just natural touch they have.

I really recommend this movie. You will find a different romance / comedy movie, In which you will also get different kind of messages not just the love story but family relations.

'Inspiración' isn't. For those who have the patience to sit through this Mexican extended novella, discovering that other countries are capable of producing the kind of summer chick flick messes that Hollywood cranks out ad infinitum will be the surprising reward. Written and directed by Angel Mario Huerta and starring a group of Mexican TV actors, 'Inspiración' has little to recommend it.

A group of Macho guys (supposedly teenagers although all of the actors are obviously aged well beyond that!) with little on their minds except dating, doing the club scene, sporting wagers about girls as though the girls were game-things for goals, spur on the naive Gabriel (Arath de la Torre) to pursue a beauty he merely glimpses and gets a first name Alejandra (Bárbara Mori). Gabriel in 'inspired' to write poetry (not a pastime appropriate to macho men...) in response to Alejandra, has a confrontation with his father that begins with the usual flair of son not living up to father ideals and ends with a complete reversal of tears and forgiveness..., and is rigged into assignation with his 'inspiration'. Each move Gabriel makes to woo Alejandra results in disaster in situations intended to be humorous but that are really just gross or silly.

It is the old, tired story of boy meets girl, boy falls all over himself to impress, girl initially responds but is gradually repulsed by boy's insipid arrogance and behavior, boy looses hold on girl, and eventually boy gets girl. Yes, that is it! The acting is almost as weak as the script and direction and while some of the actors are attractive people, they have no sense of comedy or love chemistry or charisma. The film is overproduced, with more emphasis on décolletage than on character development, and in the end the only saving grace is seeing Monterey, Mexico and surrounding areas to advantage. Definitely a class B movie that probably should not have been exported. 92 long minutes in length and in Spanish with English subtitles. Grady Harp
