Rendez-vous à Mexico

An enchanting comedy, beautiful places and landscapes, funny performances with a true story that can happen to anyone. the music is the best well selected for each take and for what they want to convey

It was a light, fun and enjoyable movie. Worth the watch.

Production, camera work and editing are pretty good. Soundtrack is top notch.

Plot wise is mediocre at best. There's no chemistry nor reason why the protagonists should be together, other than, 'our families know each other from years back and my grandpa last wish is for me to get a partner'.

I've never written a review, but after reading some of these harsh criticisms, I felt the need to do so.

The scrip is a pretty standard Rom-Com, but it feels fresh and lighthearted. It has a sincere feel to it, keeping you engaged and involved with the main characters.

The movie feels more like a love letter to DF, Mexico City, with interesting characters/performances that help you connect to the city and the group.

The story is simple, but interesting to keep your attention. I believe it's more of a tale about friendship rather than love, and it does a good job at separating itself from a basic Rom-Com.

Knowing this is the Directors first movie, I'm excited to see more, and hope he continues to utilize his lighthearted and sincere style that could make people fall in love with his movies.

A professional very nerdy guy from the US goes to Mexico to explore his roots, and has a bit of a cultural clash, and a few kind of life-changing experiences -- from the mundane to romance.

It's a farfetched story, farcical, but with some realistic Mexican aspects that makes somewhat different than Hollywood -- subtle farce with somewhat realistic characters one can find in modern Mexico. They are caricatures, yes, but not jerks doing whatever for a laugh, whether it makes sense or not, as I've seen too much of in the past.

Some rom-com clichés in this one, yes -- it's a rom-com, a cliché by definition. But some aspects are different form the typical Hollywood. Made this one fun to watch.

The story feels somewhat different, original, refreshing. The characters and the environment are kind of realistic Mexican (for a farce) with a little different sense of humor. The differences are realistic, not exaggerated -- unlike so many USA films portraying Mexican characters as primitive clichés.
