Everyone has their kryptonite...if this was a rom com...
cgvsluis18 July 2022
This was yet another film about self-love packaged in a romantic comedy...only there really wasn't any comedy. I didn't laugh a single time during this film.

Don't get me wrong there were things I liked about the film...gorgeous backdrop in Spain and then Paris, fun fashion with some vivid colors, tight female friendship between three friends...but that is kind of where my enjoyment ended.

Everyone has their kryptonite...for the one it's Leo a boy who broke her heart by leaving and not saying goodbye (get over it!), for another it is the deceased/ghost of Santi, and the third...being alone (although somehow that gets changed into being a lesbian).

The lead, Maca, speaks to the camera and garners sympathy for her downtrodden position working for a tyrant of a young twenty-something influencer. Her former boyfriend Leo who left her without saying goodbye...literally rented an apartment together and then got on a plan to go to Boston, is now back in her life. They have some childish back and forth and then he eventually apologizes and wants back with her...ultimately it was about Maca finding self love, but I think this could have been done a lot better.

Kind of a snooze-fest of a self-love film that I can't really recommend unless you want to practice your Spanish or see some vivid colors and interesting fashion choices.

another typical romantic comedy
Ranpo0121 November 2021
The story is very predictable and the plot twist is very boring, but the performances are fun and well for what the film requires, another positive point is the narrative style breaking the fourth wall which makes the film more dynamic.

Maria Valverde??
mhhytham24 November 2021
This is not Maria we used to see, maybe super diet or something else? After a set of strong movies coming this comedy whose story is old and predictable, Maria made non favourable selection this time. Whish next one will be the Maria we used to see on screen, strong scenario and strong performance without the super diet.

A movie full of cheap clichés.
arimariza2 October 2021
Really would like to know what the writers wanted to achieve with this awful plot.. Also the acting is cringy as well.

The romanticism we no longer need
marcosarferreira2 October 2021
Women: you are better than this.

Despicable picture of how women reflect their emotions.

I believe they tried to give it a more up front vibe with some good old funny speeches (the one the main protagonist gives in the classroom to her former lover ) but all feels flat .

Just struggling women showing a huge sickness of judgement and auto control ...

Again, the romantic movie no one needs to see.

It doesn't even come close to the deep meaning that fleabag brings breaking the 4th wall (but it tries).

Lovely
jodyscott3125 February 2022
A really lovely film that explores life and how love fits in to it. The whole movie came together very nicely with the plot, acting, settings, music, and costumes. I enjoyed every second of it, and was very pleased with the ending.
