kakashi109114 i think this movie was pretty cool i don't what everyone's talking bout every movie is filled with stereotypes anyways so y complain? its awesome and if u don't want to buy it then rent it no ones obligating u to buy it ^^ I'm Mexican and when people say that the movie is an insult to the Mexican industry i would have to strongly disagree i have seen way too many Mexican movies for my own good and this one is pretty awesome and people say that its pornographic or that guys only watch it because of naked girls then they're severely wrong there are many other Mexican films that have more nudity and sex than this movie overall GREAT film ^^
noimosyni When I first saw this movie, I said to myself, "Hey what the heck it sounds like a good movie, why not rent it?". So yeah, I rented it and went back home to see it. When I inserted it in my DVD player I was shocked.Well FIRST of all, no one told me it was a Mexican movie and was spoken in Spanish, good thing it had subtitles.SECOND, it was nude, nude NUDE! Since I have no background whatsoever in Mexican movies, you could see my shock when I saw it. *GASP! Covering virgin eyes, NOO*THIRD, predictable to say the least, but actually being it predictable was no excuse to me in liking movies, because I don't seem to care if it's predictable, unless it's way over the top. FOURTH, how Heidi and Kike were reunited, so cheesy. FIFTH, how the movie ended. It was a BAD, BAD ending. How Mr. Van der Linde's sudden approval to the mayor's election was because her daughter, knew how to throw the party... BLAH, Blah. I was hoping that he wasn't that easy to accept it, the director might have just rushed it. After all of this bashing of the bad stuff, the good stuff's are here to come. The movie was actually quite hilarious at some point with Maribel being clumsy in the kitchen and all, Heidi's attitude, Valentina being poetic with words. What I really also like about it was the song that Valentina made with her girl friend. That's all, and for the other stuffs that I haven't mentioned they were just so-so.
tirkkanen Adela is a rebellious teenager with the attitude that she is right and everyone else is wrong. She needs to be the center of attention and she'll act stupid to make it so. With her attitude she gets sent to charm school.There she meets the typical characters in today's cinema; the nerd, the clumsy one, the stepford housewife and the sexual minority. Things happen and in the end Adela "learns her lesson" so to speak. The plot tries to carry a deeper meaning to the state Adela is in, but utterly fails to deliver (at least I didn't buy it). So what you are left with is superficial interaction within the same stereotypes you've seen in a million movies before. Plus the director seems to have a breast fixation, Adela flashes her boobies a few times too many, at least I can't see that they are relevant to the story.So the film is OK, but if you are like me and don't like to watch a teenager pissing people off and making a behavioral U-turn in an instant, which I found very unbelievable, think twice before watching.
Barbaro Babuckas nothing further than this, the movie is full of stereotypes and its like a copy of those films for brainless teenagers, i would say if you are someone between 14-18 years old and you like the free living style the rebel and stupidity of adolescence, give a shot to niñas mal, otherwise if you have delicate taste for movies and intelligence , the comedy here would be almost insulting, boring.its ... like those Hollywood films of teens with social troubles and terrible jokes, the classic movie based on some teenager with problems, love, fun and else.the music is... well, nothing special or relevant, it fix with this movie but again nothing special to considering.and the way how the school for this ladies was done , is horrible , you cant see the value of the school which had to be some of the main points in this movie.anyway, its a good movie, just for some audiences, for teenagers and their mod, to those kids without control or social problems , with their parents and things like that.
