Let us first remember how absolutely wonderful cruising was. Little did they know, that the Sovereign would be sold for scrap in Turkey two years later.
Anyway, there are some great musical numbers, and the camp antics of the con artists makes it very entertaining. A little over long, and the dubbed voice of the mark didn't help. Nice port scenes, the open bar in the guys suite was awesome, and the two sons in law were hilarious.
There are good and bad things about Yucatán but overall it's an okay movie to watch once. The bad things to me would be the length of the movie, it's just a bit too long, the singing scenes, there are too many and too long, and the plausibility of the story, as that would never happen in real life. The good things are the actors, they're all good in what they do, and the story is entertaining and easy to follow, and it's also good for my Spanish. But it's not a movie that I will remember or that I will watch a second time in the future, but that doesn't mean it's bad, that just means there are a lot of better movies, that's all.
Aboard a cruise; a group of scammers are trying to make their living on the unsuspecting travelers. The movie is basically the competition between then to catch a big fish; a lottery winner with 161M travelling with his family.
The movie combines a very healthy and classy humor (only one scene indulges with bathroom humor); a lot of smart ideas and unexpected twist. A great homage 1960s picaresque comedies.
Production values are very high for a Spanish production. Perfectly staged action scenes and musical numbers.
Aside from the language; it technically as good as any Hollywood production but with a far better and smart script and without Hollywood cliches. Both male protagonists are criminals; and the movie does not try to moralize them In fact the just perfect final joke at end; defines the moral ground of the story.
None of the above is surprising considering Daniel Monzon curriculum. A director capable of doing excellent thrillers and also comedies.
The only small criticism to YUCATAN; is that some trimming could had benefit it. Cutting some overacting from Rodrigo de la Serna and perhaps shorter some unnecessary musical numbers or dramatic situations.
In brief; as comedies went in 2018; this is by far the best and classiest

It's a breezy, light-hearted film although it manages to sneak in its message.
It's a joy watching Luis Tosar and Rodrigo Dela Serna do their thing as engaging thespians. But Joan Pera as Antonio steals the show. He delivers on his role as a lucky lottery winner who's burdened by it.
Don't expect a thrilling voyage, and you'll be entertained and, at the same time, visit vicariously interesting places.

Shenanigans on a sea cruise. Lucas and clayderman have always agreed to hustle and steal on different ships. But when they end up on the same ship, their plans clash. And crash into each other. Clayderman fears that lucas has come to steal his wife verónica. But apparently, they are both trying to scam one of the passengers who has recently won the lottery. It's pretty silly, but there are some twists and turns, some funny bits. From spain. I fear some of the humor was lost in translation. The sound has been dubbed into english, but occasionally, the subtitles don't quite match what the speakers are saying, in the dubbed version. It's fun, if you don't take it too seriously. Directed by daniel monzón.
