Sous les palmiers, ma mère

I really enjoy this movie, not predictable. Shows the love and relationship with mother/son and how good is when you spend more time to know each other.

Me encanto la película muy divertida.

Of course there are better movies then this one. It falls into the category of "easy movies" with not much new to say. However, the focus it has in the family and in the self-love rather than the typical boy-meets-girl, makes it an above average netflix movie.

Quim Gutierrez does a correct job, but Carmen Machi really stands out in this movie with some very well acted moments.

When I sat down to watch the 2022 Spanish comedy "Amor de Madre" (aka "Mother's Love"), I didn't know what to expect from writers Cristóbal Garrido and Adolfo Valor as I had never heard about the movie before sitting down to actually watch it. But I have to say that the movie's synopsis definitely sounded interesting enough. So of course I opted to give this movie a view.

And I will say that director Paco Caballero actually put together a wholesome and thoroughly entertaining movie. The storyline in the movie was well-written and had a good combination and mixture of comedy and proper narrative to it. So it actually made for a good viewing.

As I am not particularly well-traversed in the Spanish cinema, then I can't claim to be familiar with the cast ensemble here. But Carmen Machi (playing Mari Carmen) and Quim Gutiérrez (playing José Luis) were nicely cast for their roles and carried the movie quite well. They had good chemistry on the screen and put on very good performances.

If you enjoy light-hearted comedies with a proper story, then you should definitely give "Amor de Madre" a chance, provided you get to do so. I was genuinely entertained by this movie, and it is a feel-good type of movie.

My rating of "Amor de Madre" lands on a six out of ten stars.

As an unashamed mummy's boy who used to take mum on holiday when she was with us, I enjoyed this film. It isn't as linear as you might expect it to be and it takes us in some unexpected directions, what needs to be mentioned is the first class soundtrack - it fits nicely into the film.

Spanish comedies are hit and miss but it seems Netflix are making a concerted effort into making some quality Spanish language content and it seems they are on the right path if the likes of 'Amor de Madre' are any evidence of it. Set in Spain and Mauritius. As well as the chemistry between the main acts, you also have the beautiful scenery of Mauritius and of course the storyline, it's a winner from me therefore, nine out of ten.

It's cute, but with too many lame American moments. The mother is very tender and she's the engine of the movie. But unfortunately the movie is done by Netflix, so there are sexualized and immoral scenes.
