Gordon-11 This film is about the romantic adventures of 2 couples, who cheats on each other with hilarious results.I truly enjoyed this film. It's fun, uplifting and vibrant. I like the choreographed dance sequence a lot, especially the one in the corridor of Javier's office. All the dance sequences are dynamic, expressive and beautiful. The plot is great, there are a lot of funny lines and witty dialogs. The fact the four main characters all have secrets to hide from one another is a lot of fun. The lies they make to cover their own acts of infidelity up are so hilarious! The ending is a happy one, which fits with the whole theme of the movie. This film cheered me up, and I recommend it to anyone who wants to watch a happy musical.

gas31 This movie is very reminiscent of American sit-coms such as Friends, with only minimal character development and some halfway decent comedy, but then someone decided it would be a good idea to make it into a musical.Why, oh why?! Quite apart from the badly-choreographed, fetishised female dancing sequences, the actors can't sing! The songs seem to encroach on the plot rather than aid it, and the fact that the songs are often shot in a different location (with completely different lighting, mise-en-scene etc) from the preceding and following scenes makes the film as a whole seem disjointed.The time spent on the musical numbers would have been better used to provide a little more character development - after all, the film boasts an impressive cast, but sadly their talents are not exploited to their full potential.

accsys This movie is aimed squarely at a female audience. The male characters are thinly drawn cartoons, and there's not much here for guys to enjoy besides some fairly limited female nudity. Movie musicals are difficult to execute properly. When this film broke into song, I just found it clumsy and I almost herniated myself attempting to suspend my disbelief.The achingly gorgeous Paz Vega _almost_ salvages the movie on her own ... she is definitely headed for mainstream worldwide stardom. I plan to see her in Spanglish - she has already had several nightly starring roles behind my eyelids. The only thing that may hold her back is her too-strong facial resemblance to a young Winona Ryder. Perhaps if Ms. Ryder's film career stays off the tracks, that will make room for Ms. Vega's ascent.

tcw-4 I was frankly getting a little bored even of World Cinema until I happened upon this little gem. It's everything Dennis Potter's (r.i.p) Singing Detective could/should have been but wasn't.As you'll appreciate from that summary, it has acting and singing - but don't let that put you off - PLEASE don't let that put you off. I hate musicals myself but this is FANTASTIC. Witty, wry, sexy - the lot.If you don't learn anything from this movie, can I stay at your house?It is a wonderful film. Watch it. Buy it. Steal it if you have to.
