Not seen it, have no interest in seeing it. But can't believe the amount of people complaining and calling it a 'rip-off' or 'parody'!!!
It's neither! It is clearly a word-for-word foreign language remake. Yes as an English speaker I prefer to watch foreign films with subtitles (original is usually best and confident it is in this case), but maybe some non English speaking Spanish speakers prefer to watch it in their own language!
Makes me laugh as Hollywood is the worst for remaking excellent foreign language films into (mostly) trash for lazy audiences- Le Cage aux Folles, Nikita, Force Majuere, The Ring, Ju-On, Old Boy spring to mind! Even the excellent CODA was a remake of a French film.
Let's not even get started on American networks simply remaking already excellent English shows because they've run out of ideas- The Office, The Inbetweeners, Fawlty Towers, The Young Ones, Dear John.
Breaking Bad was incredible, the cast, the production, the writing, the cinematography, the soundtrack. No remake will ever surpass or likely even come close, but please accept this for what it is- a REMAKE for Spanish language audiences who don't wish to read subtitles.
