So much average terrible gay themed content being churned out on streaming services that I had very low expectations when this popped up on the Netflix homepage. So what a pleasant surprise. It was really great to find this just before year end and it demonstrates how gay doesn't need to be cheap and laughs don't need to be cheap either love can be gay feminine masculine queer straight and transcend age and demographics. Didn't try too hard to be anything but tight clean entertaining and made for Netflix to series binging. Spanish language content is so much better than English language nowadays,

I cried several times throughout the series. It was amazing. The plot weaves several stories through several peoples lives. The sex wasn't gratutuis. Who and why you love someone was done beautifully and comically.

I would almost call this a Christmas movie in Merlin, but with a different cast. Same feel tho. The acting, the facial expressions, the Director was outstanding. Forigen films are just done so much better.

This is what Bros should have been!

(Sorry, that movie didn't pass thr mustard)

Highly recommend this. For anyone in any sexuality.

It's a great love story that might have you cry too.

(Must see, and I don't review too often)

Finally, I saw a film in which there is no negativity, wars and militarism, dull people who are tired of themselves. Here, gays and lesbians are no different from anyone - everyone communicates with everyone about their innermost dreams and desires. People live, resting from the imposed stereotypes of "right" and "wrong". The film shows life as it should be in a civilized society. All people equally empathize with each other and just live their lives. This is the essence of the film - no one hides their feelings from anyone and does not impose them on others. Imaginary hypocritical tolerance has been replaced by ordinary life, everyone has the right to their own life, if this does not interfere with other people's lives. Life is Beautiful and amazing. Real life is always devoid of stereotypes.

I wasn't sure what to expect with this series. The trailer looked promising but I've been duped by trailers before. The series starts with a call to a wrong number that sets up a chain of reactions and introduces us to the various storylines, all of which were well written and carried out - a stagnation marriage, a lesbian couple at the crossroads of their 7 year relationship, a widow and her long lost childhoold friend. The main story centers around Bruno and Alex, two polar opposites on the gay spectrum who meet by accident and discover there's a white hot chemistry between them. Yes, Carlos Cuevas is very easy on the eyes but that's not the only reason to watch. I intended to view just the first episode and ended up binge watching all eight episodes in one sitting. This series reminded me of the great 2000 Spanish film 'Km.0' which was amazing. Highly recommend this to fans of limited romantic drama series.

I expected yet another banal, predictable gay rom-com. And while some of the plot is predictable, there is so much more character development than most gay rom-coms that I binged watched the entire series in two sittings. The writing is clever, the acting is very good, and the characters are multi-dimensional.

I enjoyed the many different ways the film explores relationships and people's yearning for love, despite their ages and sexual proclivities. While each character's foibles complicate their searches for love, ultimately their journeys lead them to where they should be.

If you're looking just for eye candy, you can find that here, too. And Barcelona itself is one of the stars.
