Details

Pablo hates everything. When Lucia comes into his life, he thinks she's the woman he dreams of, and sees the solution to all his problems. But Lucia, who is rather manipulating, is just what will make Pablo explode. Nobody believes in the ideal couple, not even Pablo's friends, who live all in couples, and all with problems: Between Ariel and Lola there is a professional rivalty they don't know how to cope with; Claudio lives on Natalia, and none of them feels good about it; what's wrong with Alejandro and Beatriz is just the big age difference between them two. Nobody is happy with his partenaire, but everyone will let it be, maybe for conformism, maybe for fear, maybe for lazyness, or maybe because Everything is false.

ManiakJiggy This is How Movies Should Be Made
Lucybespro It is a performances centric movie
Manthast Absolutely amazing
Catherina If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.
lamaga234 I must say that this is one of my favorite couple comedy movies. Reading to the last review, it got me thinking that, maybe, if you don't understand Spanish character and humor, you can loose the real sense of the movie, and misunderstand irony and sarcasm with depressing seriousness. For me, it's what the Annie Hall's Woody Allen would had done if he was born in Madrid. That's exactly what I think.(Imdb is asking me for more lines of writing): The quality of the production is low cost, just as an opera prima usually does. References to places and characters are very well achieved. Coque Malla was an important singer and songwriter at that time (and still is). This was one of his first movies, and he succeeds more than well.
leplatypus Well, i borrow this title from a french show by Mr Ardisson as it express well my feeling about the movie. It's indeed a gloomy, sad movie about relationships, that happens in addition mainly during the night. In other words, we don't see light or shining moments here. As "Alfie" already shows, the unlimited happiness at a start of a relationship always erodes with the time. It's an usual thing if the lovers have overrated themselves by showing only their best sides. Now, when it comes to share their life, they had to open up and show their bad sides as well, thus, the tension and the shouts. The movie explains that by following 4 couples of friends but the production is very cheap and the urban district is really depressive as well. Penélope was very young here and manages to display her sincere smile as well her strong resistance. Worthy of a watching but not more.
The Graps Experience The story depicted in Todo es mentira could be the story of you and I. Young people (but not stupid, handsome, athletic... in a word: REAL people) living day by day carrying along their problems. And which are, basically, the young's problems? Sex and money. This is what Todo es mentira is about. Great film. Great performances (specially Coque and Penelope, and don't forget the brief performance of Santiago Segura). It's a vital experience more than a film. You must see it.The Graps Experience
