    chick flick - comedy-romance

    Most of use have been there heartbroken by a relationship that didn't work out so not an uncommon story line but this was a very comical Mexican family. (Great actors) Go see if love wins, well it always does right ha!. Laughed a few times. Has romantic scenes that made me cry. Total chick flick. Good girls night out movie.

    An unexpected and pretty impressive romcom.

    The storyline was well portrayed. The lines had humor, especially Asher's. Actually, I adore how Asher know what he wants from the start. He is my favourite character on the film. The only negative, but still justified, was that the film has a lot indoor scenes and I missed a few more outdoor ones. PS: Stop complaining about the subtitles. They were accurate, synchronized and they minding their own business. As people with a developed vision you can practice and eventually you'll keep up. Neither English, nor Spanish is my mother tongue but I always watch with respect and love movies from other cultures.

    excellent Rom Com

    As I don't speek a word of Spanish,and I agree it was hard at the beginning to switch between reading the subtitles and the english speaking dialogs, but I think it added a lot about the bicultural aspect of the movie. I loved that in this movie Mexican are not only described as loud poor people. Clara is a well educated woman struggling with her feelings. The storyline is very well balanced and I easily got attached by all the characters. This movie was really enjoyable.

    Come for Karla Souza... stay for the story

    This is definitely a light comedy worth recommending. I have to confess that the only reason I decided to watch this movie was because I saw Miss Souza headlining it, but being honest the dynamics, characters and narrative of the movie are quite good.

    The movie itself gives a direct look at what America has become, exploring the reality of hundreds or even thousands of people that have a split life between the US and Mexico, and that have nothing to do with drugs, trafficking or organized crime.

    Clara (Souza) gives a great performance and her character is quite lovable.

    Everybody needs love

    Well one way or the other. One thing is for sure, this starts off pretty promising, with a very bleak outlook and a main character who seems to be completely opposed to love. So therefor there is some sort of redemption that we can be sure is coming later on. And the dialog strikes as nicely put together also (some nice punches thrown here and there, for comedy relief and making fun of reluctance for example).

    But there are also downsides ... like being completely sugar coated and having moments of suspense of disbelief. It's almost a shame, because many things do work and feel so real in this, that when it gets "dreamy" and unrealistic it does get you out of the movie a bit. Not too much though, which is a testament to the actors involved, especially Karla Souza. She has a charisma that cannot be denied.
