      Audience Member It's a good story with good performances. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member El inicio y el desenlace son lo mejor de la película, pero el desarrollo de la trama cae en fórmulas bastante trilladas y le quitan realismo a la historia, realismo que el mismo lenguaje visual elegido propone pero que la trama desbarata. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member De los pocos vestigios de calidad que gozo el cine en México a finales de los 90's. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member El cast salva la trama. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member Surrealista y sobreactuada telenovela convertida en película. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Una película que gira alrededor de las relaciones amorosas. Trata buenos temas y Antonio Serrano hace buen trabajo con lo que tiene. Una formula que muchos tratan de replicar pero fallan ya que la esencia se trata con pretensión y no como aquí que es tratada con honestidad a pesar de que a ratos solo parece no ser tan relevante. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
