User Reviews

Very cliche, nothing new

My first exposure to Colombian cinema was disappointing. Neither of the two main characters are likable and the plot keeps going to implausible scenarios. Plus, there isn't enough character development because I was left wondering about why each of the characters acted the way he or she did. We don't get a good enough look into their lives and such. That was the most lacking point of the film. And the comments that flashed in between each scene was just so overdone and such.

I'm sure there are better films from Colombia out there, but this ain't one of them. Hopefully, I'll find a better movie to rate next time. Skip it.
