December 24 and the family in a slight discussion about what movie to watch, the children with their drawings and the others who did not want to see that, almost by default and thinking that it would just be a Christmas lunch, we decided on "the taste of Christmas "and what a pleasant surprise :)
From the beginning you can see that it is a film made with love, very well written, filmed, acted and thought out; which allows us to enjoy these festivities away from the snow and cold so typical in these films, on the contrary, in a more American environment, with sun and mariachis, specifically Mexican, and so thanks to this film and other gems like Coco, we Little by little we get hooked on this ancient culture, it takes us a little away from the cliche of "criminal gangsters" that other productions strive to reinforce to invite us to enjoy the good, funny and peculiarities of this part of the world, simply by telling us 3 unrelated stories that, thanks to the magic of these holidays, end up relating in a very pleasant way.
Rating:
PG (Under 8, with parental control) some mild violence and skin, if seen, nothing important.
In conclusion, a film with the potential to be a Christmas classic at the level of my poor little angel; comedy, reflection, message, however it is more attached to native America, with a message and development much more attached to reality, which in the end, ends up resulting in a better film, full of good vibes and optimism.
