La familia perfecta

When the film begins, it seems that it is a comedy about a mother trying to ruin her son's relationship because she didn't like his girlfriend.

The son of a wealthy family falls in love with a girl that lives in a not so good neighborhood. When the son asks his parents to meet his girlfriend and her famiy, the parents realize that the girl isn't what they wish for their beloved son.

But.... the movie is so much more (!!!) than a mother-in-law fighting daughter-in-law parody.

Actually, the movie is not at all about the relationship of the son, rather than the discovery of the inner feelings of the people surrounding the couple, especially the mother.

It is a touching and emotional comedy with funny moments. Definitely worth watching.

The beginning was promising. It seemed the classical clash of classes with comical situations. Then the movie becomes a complete nonsense with many plotholes. The character Lucía evolves from comical to completely illogical.

In the end, it is more a movie about the evolution of the character of Lucía. The writers tried to disguise the movie as a comedy. However, the result is bad as comedy and bad as a movie about the evolution of Lucía.

My rate is 2, not 1 just because of the acting of José Coronado.

One of the possibly newest in Netflix was pushed to my TV screen and sounded quite interesting as title I was expecting a rom com movie.

Indeed the story started as a typical rom com but after the half the things changed> while the first part was referred to the proceedings for making the wedding of the groom and bride the second half is focused to the grooms mothers life after she was divorced from her husband for one reason : she had a nice chemistry with the in law !

The story then unfolds on how she restarted her life making her dreams once again realizable . I stop here referring more movie details.

The other part of the story is the difference between rich and poor. She and her husband are from the rich category. They are quite phlegmatic . In contrast the other family are lousy people : wife is very open minded and funny , her husband is less but still a fun man and ther children very lively in contrast to the other family. Totally different cast , the only that makes the pair join is the love and understand the differences . This made the groom family in the start being very negative but resisting very polite this marriage

The other side of the story raised from the grooms mother as we listen is more deep: 'All my life was a disaster to me: For more than 50 years I was a perfect wife I did the prefect wedding and made a perfect family but . Noting did to my life so far ' This was the reason she lived then alone The solution can be found in the story . Enjoy yourself!

Funny and fast paced movie. The plot is slightly predictable but very fun to watch.

The casting is almost perfect They acted so well.

A good movie to watch with the family.

Sweet production. Good actors. Many good ideas. But 1 hour 45 minutes is a bit too short for all the interesting storylines and all these good actors. I really would have watched like 12 episodes of this.
