No Kids (2015) User Reviews

Decent romantic comedy from Argentina.

[deloudelouvain · 7/10 · 27 November 2020]

I didn't expect too much from this movie as the story sounded a bit cheesy but in the end it was a most enjoyable movie to watch. The cinematography was very good, and the acting was not bad at all. I'm a bit like the main character Vicky (played by Mirabel Verdú), don't like kids that much, so I could see myself in her character. Diego Peretti as the confused father did a good job as well. But the kid Sofía played by Guadalupe Manent was surprisingly to me the most entertaining character, very good job from that promising little actress. The story itself is a mild comedy with a romantic touch, not the kind of movie I normally go for, but the truth is that it is well made, never boring, and entertaining to watch.

Worth watching

I suspected some who have seen this might be put off by the premise of the movie but although particular instances might be predictable I still found it entertaining and the premise isn't so far fetched. I can say I know of more than one family where relationships were not always as they were stated but I don't want to give away too much.

The cinematography is great. The opening sequences and titles are very imaginative and the end credits also do it justice as well.

Loved the zany end credit by the way.

ok

Nice comedy, predictful script and some logic flaws, but who cares, its a comedy. the story is nothing new or special, but the movie lives from the great acting of father and daughter. enjoyable

Weak comedy

[hof-4 · 4/10 · 10 October 2017]

An attempt at Hollywood screwball; couple meet cute, initiate a relationship under a not very credible premise, complications arise but everything falls into place at the end. Argentine Diego Peretti and Spaniard Maribel Verdu are charismatic actors and play well together but the script is weak, and some characters are clichés such as the precocious-smart-aleck kid played by Guadalupe Manent (she gets far too much screen time, and her musical number at the end is tasteless). The movie is watchable and at times entertaining, but in the end doesn't amount to much.

Among the positives: fluid direction and excellent cinematography. You get to see some beautiful buildings and places in Buenos Aires and environs.
