User Reviews

Good fun movie

Obviously is intended for Spanish speaking markets (and specially Mexican, since it has a lot of double meaning expressions). I thoroughly enjoyed it, and once the DVD/BlueRay is out, I'll get it. It is hard to translate since 'eggs' (which is pretty much the title of the movie: a rooster with many eggs, the correct translation would be a rooster with many balls - where balls stand for testicles) is just a double meaning word... Many of the situations and expressions are very well used, but as I mentioned above, it is for the Mexican audience, I doubt the rest of Spanish speaking countries will understand the secret expressions. Even without understanding them, the story is OK and the animation is excellent. It is a pity that studio shut down after the termination of the movie.
