Como Caído Del Cielo

It feels wrong to call this a romcom, as it deals with serious subjects and manages to connect to your heart. But it *is* funny and romantic. Our hero, the great singer and womanizer, has been in limbo for decades. He returns to earth and tries to redeem himself in the life and body of another man. A man who happens to be an impersonator of -- you guessed it -- Pedro Infante. Redemption is harder than it looks, as he soon learns while trying to sort out the mess of another's life.

Fun, fast, and well-plotted, with a mixed cast of characters.

The writers took a big risk managing the image of an icon of mexican culture and were fair in what issues should've been addressed in times like this, and i've got to say... it paid off. This is a great film that matches the moves, the songs, and even the looks of Pedro Infante, but also adds to the magic with original new songs that could have been sang by Pedro himself. Bravo!

I'm a fan of both lead actors, so I was expecting to see something good. I expected the ending to be what it was, but what I didn't expect was for it to make me feel the way it did. This movie is a great story of redemption and second chances, and most of all, how someone who is really in love is willing to do anything. Congrats to Omar and Ana Claudia and Netflix for making a movie that is way above expectations of what typical nowadays Mexican movies are.

Delightful romp reminiscent of the 1930's screwball comedies. Very likeable case, music, and settings.

The film has its best moments when it becomes a tribute to Pedro Infante (Omar Chaparro manages to imitate Pedro's voice perfectly), and to have good comedy moments that remind us again and again of Infante's work.

However, the film also raises the idea that Pedro must be re-educated to leave machismo behind and adopt more feminist positions. And it is in this sense where the film fails, when it tries to insert the feminist message, that although it is implicitly left over and makes the good rhythm of the plot be interrupted by such scolding.

A regular tribute to Pedro Infante, sometimes funny and sometimes moralistic, however, acceptable to see as a family.
