Interesteg What makes it different from others?
Cathardincu Surprisingly incoherent and boring
Mjeteconer Just perfect...
Kailansorac Clever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.
AlexanderMichaels Great Movie to watch with the kids and expose them to the world of International Film. Movie about a kid being raised by his grandmother in the late 60's in Argentina and dreaming of being an Astronaut and meeting his mom some day. Spanish with English subtitles. Enjoy watching how children growing up in other cultures are just like us. We are all so similar. If we are honest, like Valentin, we will realize that we are all just searching for love. Valentin is just an average kid with his own quirks, looking for love and answers. Kids are so honest. Although his movie is funny it also has some sad moments. We need more movies like this!
Colleen Smith I loved this movie, and also, I love the music from the film. I've searched high and low on the web for even just the names of the songs and I can't find anything. There wasn't even a list on the credits of the movie itself. I'm learning Spanish, so it's hard for me to search for a piece of lyrics in quotations..So, I'm requesting that maybe someone who is more fluent in Spanish could help me find the songs of this movie. Particularly the song Valentin is shout-singing when his Uncle arrives, and some of the songs that play in scenes with Leticia.Please and thank you!
w112th firstly, this is a film rather than a movie; therefore, it appears that the objective is more to offer a discrete perspective to the viewer -- if one is interested in plots twists, car chases or other movie ' magic', it is perhaps advisable to look elsewherehowever, if one wishes to experiences what has to be universally fine acting -- especially by the always pitch-perfect ms carmen maura in a performance which may be surely described as Oscar-worthy -- a compelling study in inter- /intra-personal relationships and an opportunity to see the world differently after viewing : decease looking & enjoy what has become one of my favorite filmslacking experience or credentials in film criticism, i refrain from attempting to offer pretentious pseudo-critique; that being stated, just one of the aspects of the film i appreciated was a presentation of the heretofore little known personally topic of Argentinian jewryfurther, this film elicited empathy for ostensibly unsympathetic characters reminding one that ' walking a mile in the shoes ' of others is still perhaps the best way to understand them
belleseb This was terribly disappointing. I looked forward to seeing this greatly but the sentimentality of it was horrendous. It never missed an opportunity to be saccharine-sweet and this became intensely irritating. Appended to the fact that there is no plot and is merely one twee scene followed by another makes this a very disappointing experience. Not good. Surely, we must evolve beyond the cute kid being cute kind of movie. How about some realism rather than just aiming for the tear-jerking (or giggling hysterically, if you're me) moments of cute kid trying to survive in a world of ignorant adults. That point has been made so many times: it doesn't need to be told again
