    Regular...

    A comedy about alcoholism that follows the relationship between Mateo and his best friend, who always gets drunk. A brilliant but shy architect seizes the opportunity of a lifetime and solves his problems by getting drunk and creating an alter ego.

    It's about the malacopa, which in Spanish means bad drink or that person who when he gets drunk becomes aggressive or irritating, truly, there is one inside each of us, only those who have never drunk, never had a drunk, don't know it. It's quite boring, it becomes a bit drunk, almost a bad drink, but if you don't lose patience it's a good pastime... Regular...

    Don't waste your time

    My feeling after watching this is that amateurs made this movie. (probably except for the director who has some other flops under his name ). Dull screenplay, terrible acting, lousy directing and poor production. If I had to say something good about it, I'd say the production design is not that bad. I have seen better student films, with good actors, great screenplay, thoughtful directorial work, and impressive production values. That's not the case of this movie. I can start to describe how bad it is. How do these films get made? Who thinks it's a good idea to be part of them or to throw money at them? I know that when you start watching a movie like this, you have to keep your expectations low, I was not expecting to watch an art house picture of a film that would change my life. Still, as a viewer, you expect at least a minimum of quality. I am sure there were thousands of decent options of movies to be made, with good actors, instead, we have one more lousy film that will just waste the time of the viewer.
