Great criticism, poor love story

This is the latest movie of the new Mexican film generation. It is a love story between two social classes. While the girl is rich and lives in a bubble, the guy is poor and has a harsh life. As many of the most recent Mexican movies, this movie incorporates a strong sense of humor. This humor may be seen as rudely presented, but it makes you laugh anyway. The story is easy going and you´ll not be bored during it, in fact despite of the cliche, you´ll be wishing for the lovers to get together in the end. The love story is poor. It´s a contemporary version of Romeo and Juliet. However, what makes this movie worthwile is the way it presents you with clasism in Mexico. Both, rich and poor, hate each other. In a part of the movie, the rich guy takes on the poor guy sort of teaching him a lesson. However, later, ther poor guys take revenge in a much stronger way. It also shows how the majority, although being poor, are more powerful that any minority, despite how many money they have. I give this film 3 stars.. worth watching for the kicks.
