Almodovar for beginners
21 December 2015
The truth is that this film isn't half bad, it has high production values, some solid performances from the cast of women, specially Cecilia Suárez in the main role and the storyline isn't bad.

The problem comes when the director tries too hard to emulate his hero, Pedro Almodovar, losing all of it's own identity. Even trying to include a Mexican touch on it, you can't miss the intentional references, just like his prior film, 'No se si cortarme las venas o dejármelas largas'.

That's too bad. Maybe in his next works he can find his own voice and portrait something unique, besides trying to emulate or copy his hero.
