Critic Reviews

Springall also deftly weaves the film's most dramatic moments with lighthearted comedy, and the result may be Mexico's best film in years.

The incredible adventures pile up unrelentingly, with no inflection, no downtime, and each new space is a set decorator's hallucination, as brightly colored as a candy store on acid.

It's remarkably bright, funny and sweet for a film that wades through so much sleaze, though it can't escape all of the weirdness it worms through.

The premise is so sad it's impossible to chuckle at the often heavy-handed humor.

There's no gold dust to be found here, just an awful lot of stick-on glitter.
