Las niñas bien

The script or story is the worst. Does not make any sense. The actors are good, but the movie was a total waste of my time. Horrible!!!. I thought the movie "There Will Be Blood" was bad. But, this one was the worst!. I apologize for being this honest. I could not help it.

What could have been an interesting societal study of a change of elites in the times of crisis (the falling down of Sofía De Garay's status and the rising of Ana Paola Haddad's) is lost as the characters, true to the selves of Mexican upper class, are too frivolous to understand the reality they live in. And the film does not go beyond that limited look of things.

Yes, old banking and manufacturing families went down in the crisis of 1982-88, and others -notably the mogul Carlos Slim, well portrayed as Mr. Haddad- made millions and millions, but the process was not as swift and shallow as the movie makes it be.

Acting is good, production is nice, pace is slow and the whole film ends up to (almost) nothing.

This film captures the reality of a rich life controlled by the lust of the flesh. The director did an excellent job weaving the elements of money, judgmental mindsets, arrogance, pride, and the characteristics of vanity. The all too perfect lives stitched up with fake and deceptive threads of life. I cannot forget to mentioned the addictive vices and the wondering if you are a good person or parent surrounded by a circle of opportunist friends. I thought the coming out of the public restroom scene summed it up well. It seems that money sets you up to selfishly desires what you want no matter who you hurt. This movie confirms Victor Hugo's quote, "Adversity creates men; Prosperity creates monsters." Yet, everyone deserves a true friend despite of who you are. I hope people will watch this flick for what it really signifies.... the sad reality of a prosperous life.

Amazing film, that is all I have to say. Loved everything about it.

This movie stands out from most Mexican movies.

The film is well made, it has a good production design, good photography, very good acting, Ilse Salas doing a good job as always, very good music, it is very well directed, has an excellent hair and makeup job, there is an attractive design costume, good character development and the script is compelling and well developed. The only thing that doesn't convince me is the way it tells the story, making the film a bit confusing and sometimes slow.

The film manages to portray how they were seen in the past, and even today, social classes in Mexico and how appearances were everything in those times, even more important than being happy, the film manages to be a high quality film and very remarkable of the majority of Mexican films with a good script and good execution.
