This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.

Clever and entertaining enough to recommend even to members of the 1%

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

A fun look at a group of apartment dwellers. Couples, friends, and the new guy, a cute soccer player all interact in a project from Manolo Caro. and of course, Rossy de Palma from all those Almodovar films. and Luis Méndez, who Caro also used in "Elvira, I Will give you my Life". Before the new guy moved in, no-one knew anything about the others, but somehow, the soccer player stirred things up and now everyone knows everything about each other. The good and the bad. and de Palma keeps mixing up a batch of her "special gespacho". Not a lot of action in here, but some really interesting stories. and a fun ending. Some dreams come true, and some don't. just like life. Written and directed by Manolo Caro. Where does he come up with these adventures? If these are all his own stories, he has lived an interesting life. Good watch. on netflix.
