Randy Cordova Arizona Republic The characters are fully rounded, and you wind up emotionally invested in them. Rated: 4/5 Jan 26, 2017 Full Review Yvonne Condes Common Sense Media Mostly sweet Spanish-language comedy has some iffy stuff. Rated: 3/5 Jan 30, 2017 Full Review Avi Offer NYC Movie Guru Tender, warm, witty and refreshingly honest. Hctor Bonilla gives a bravura performance. Rated: 8.8/10 Jan 26, 2017 Full Review Fausto Ponce Proceso A film that gets better at the end, but it's not enough to save it. Too bad because it had more to offer. [Full review in Spanish] Dec 27, 2016 Full Review Mario P. Székely Siete24.mx A decent film with great performances and a warm story. [Full review in Spanish] Dec 27, 2016 Full Review Adrián Ruiz Excelsior (MX) Within its genre and its proposal the film is familiarly fun, you see it, you forget, but it entertains you.

Gustavo R Héctor Bonilla , Jaqueline Bracamontes y Benny Ibarra actúan en esta película acerca de un abuelo que corren de un asilo por que se queda sin dinero pero también porque es un maleducado y amargado. Se tiene que ir a vivir con un hijo que no tiene una vida que el abuelo aprueba. Una bonita película que da buenos consejos de vida. 🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿/5 en Vix Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/03/25 Full Review Audience Member Tiene buenas actuaciones, una trama entretenida y bellos paisajes, la recomiendo.

Muy entretenida y refleja muy bien nuestros prejuicios como sociedad, así como también la forma en que nos vamos adaptando a su transformación.
