Mi suegra me odia

It's a light comedy, with some hints of horror. Loved it. Went with my bf and my mom. I really needed a good laugh and this movie helped with that.

I thought it was funny, and intelligent. The vegetarian metafor was on point, and it speaks volumes about the dychotomy in today's society, about intolerance and rage about someone having different ways of living.

It"s a must watch if you love Itati Cantoral's villains. She gave a heck of a performance on this one. Lol It captures modern times' preoccupation with accepting differences, and it has a lovely message about dealing with mental illness.

Mi suegra me odia portrays the latin mother-in-laws, that have historically been deemed as overprotective. She has the typical issues with her son, she misses him, and believes the reason he doesn't come visit as often is because of his new romance. She finds fault in almost every little thing that the gf does, to the point that the poor gilr starts trying to resemble the mom to gain her approval. She starts trying to become more like her, and she starts participating in some of the things that she tought were awful, such as being an extreme vegan, or doing witchcraft rituals.

The son has a serious case of "mamitis" of being a momma's boy. At the end, as in every comedy, this mirrors life, and if you like a comedy about a disfunctional family-a truly disfunctional one-, you'll like this movie.

I went to the theatre without much expectation, and left with a smile. The movie follows Clara, who goes to visit her in-laws for the weekend. The mother is a mess, and Clara is very neat and clean. They are the opposite of each other, and that's what generates all the humor, which I thought was very subtle and ironic. The mom is very old school, and wishes Clara to do stuff for her "baby", such as preparing his favorite food, and pampering him like she does. But Clara doesn't want to do that, and revels againt her. At one point the mom really steps over the line, when she hipnotizes Clara in an attempt to cure her OCD. Then Clara gets her revenge. I thought the message behind, is that of not trying to change who you are to be accepted. I think this is an important message given today's intolerance.

I'll watch again.

This is a wonderful comedy, I had an amazing time at the theatre. Everyone was laughing hard at all the scenes. Itati Cantoral, mostly known for her role as La Maldita lisiada, was so funny as a mother-in-law villain. The movie also hints at some of the pop culture that has made her famous, such as singing "La guadalupana", and screaming ¡Maldita lisiada! Loretto Bernal is a revelation as well, she is the screenwriter as well as the main character. This movie has action sequences, songs, conjunring, even a bit of horror! I totally recommend you watch it, in theatres. You will have a laugh, guaranteed!

This is a movie that you could love or hate, depending on whether you love absurd comedy, and a quote of silliness. I really enjoyed the film, and thought it was a really straight forward comedy. No deep feeling messages, just an absurd comedy, with some hilarious jokes. The universe that we go into, is that of a nudist community, where the mother-in-law lives. The mom wants the daughter-in-law to show that she cares about the family by adopting this eccentric tradition. Things get hot and heavy when Patricio's ex shows up and wants to go skinny dipping. Can you imagine something more embarrasing than meeting your in-laws and seeing them naked? That's one of the most over the top and hilarious scenes in the movie. This movie is fresh, and funny. Watch only if you love over-the-top humor. I sure do! I recommend!
