Familia

This movie is an essay on misandry; the hatred of men and boys. Nothing original, feels like a cheap read on Judith Butler and a portrait of what Hollywood calls "family" in a "Mexican" upper class farm house setting. You will find the usual suspects from the mexican big screen and a few tokens. You can find in this movie the staple language found in American cinema and academic critical studies courses that have made its way onto the mainstream. The attempt to make this movie a portrait a what a modern family looks like fails in every turn. The director grabs American stereotypes and try to mold them in to a Mexican context with little success.
