Procura-se um Pai

It has an unoriginal and predictable plot, but it can distract you for a while.

By hiring second rate translators and third rate voice actors. I can see how this could have been a passable movie in it's original language, especially for it's target audience (guessing middle-school age, since that's the two main characters). But when you translate it badly (some of the phrasing is so awful it's funnier than the plot!), then get even worse actors to do the voice over (one or two were actually good, but not enough to overcome the rest), it takes all possibility of enjoyment from the movie.

But i think this was a bit too serious to raise the comedy red flag warning. its a mexican netflix founded film about a bmx'ed girl, that isnt allowed to ride the bike by her mum, cause her dad got killed when biking after a quarell. so when a prize winning biking contest come to the girls knowledge, shes turning hot and turns the world upside down to attend, but she cant get her mums written agreement for the race, so she and a friend hunts the mexican ground in search for a father-figure that can sign on the admission ticket...easy piecy story and plot, but the mexicans really makes a fuzz outof nothing and this films is the result.

production is a flashing try to make a familyfriendly disney take on the issue. in fact they do hit the target but just a bit. its meant to be comedy, and i shall admit that my grumpy old mouth wrenched into a smile here and there, but the spirits a merely too sad allthrough this flick so therefore not a comedy in my mind. its also cathegorized as family, well its is indeed, but with a very serious case of sad vibes, of loss of loved ones, lack of love from the close ones,and a child loneliness in a workoholic sosiety and a work to fade away the sad feelings of loss-mum that is very absent to her daughter.the plotintermissions are neatly done, but the parts where a film is made within a film might be to stressfull for the young familymembers to cope with.

its a very music driven film, good a varied music its also, so the score line up are cleverly chosen and done. its like clutching the straw to save the world from the armageddonish feeling, its decently done.

actors... well its the finest looking and most fashionable choice of mexican casting that dominates the movie. the children in the film are good stuff, the adult acts re more shaky and not so convincing. the dialouges though rattles like a machinegun clip at automatic setting, how they can manage to say so many sounds in a short time icant imagine. i may be excused,cause the cold climate of norway you do have to shut your mouth to keep warm...

well do not shade away from this movie, the charming elements are to heavy for that,and the lonely childs scream for attention to valuable to forget, so its a recommend from the ever and ever grumpy old man.

What a cute movie, captivating characters with strong personalities, and a lot of brotherly love involved, delicious soundtrack, all very tasty to accompany, for those who enjoy that cute, fun and almost realistic family movie ...

This was cheesy, reminded me of a Disney channel movie.
