Why it’s a Weeknight Watch
With almost no lasting buzz and soft box office, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- A natural pick for fans of a well-timed joke and people who like stories about real, flawed people. Best on a quiet night when you're in the mood to feel something. Same wavelength as Instructions Not Included or Code 3.
- The mood
- Funny with heart.
- The pace
- Gives its people room to develop, at 1 hr 43 min.
- What might put you off
- It's in Spanish, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.
Daniel, a recent university graduate with Down's Syndrome falls in love on his first day at work in the Department of Social Services. Laura is an outsider who spends her nights in the city's crowded clubs and singles' bars, escaping her problems in the arms of total strangers. Yet despite their apparent incompatibility, the two strike up a moving, bittersweet friendship that touches them both and eventually sets them on the road to happiness.
