almafuerte-1 A delightfully simple story, with simple and stereotypical characters:The Hysteric wife, the insecure guy, the girl next door, the faithful friend with a simple life and a tighter grasp on reality. This movie delivers.The comedy just works, and so does the drama. This movie clearly resembles Argetina's best intimate cinema, but is also modern and dynamic.The cast is just great. Marcos Mundstock (The Analist) is a master of comedy (The presenter from Les Luthiers). Far away from playing a stock plot-filling Psychiatrist, he plays a very realistic (and Porteño) Analist, Cecilia Dopazo in this film proves that she's not only a great actress, but also a great writer. Peretti and Villamil, as usual, provide a solid acting and interact perfectly with each other. A must see.

daniel Carbajo López Javier is a doctor that lives with her girlfriend, Maria. They have decided to go living to the US in order to have a better life. Maria travels before to make contacts and, the day that Javier is going to go (after selling his house, leaving his job...) she calls him to tell him that she has been with another man and needs to think what to do. Without job, girlfriend nor house, Javier fells in a great depression. He buys a little dog and results to be a Great Danish...When things cannot be worse, he meets Julia and love starts between them. Unluckily, a few days later, Maria call to tell him that she is going to return with him, which will push him into a very hard situation. The story, though complicated, seems interesting, but the result is quite bad. The movie tries to be a different romantic comedy with a very great drops of drama, and the problem is that the movie becomes nothing: it is not a comedy, it is not a drama and it is not a mix of both; the mixture is not well done. In addition, Diego Peretti (who plays the main character)has not a great day, his acting is not very convincing and the fact that the character is quite repulsive makes things worse. Moreover, the movie spends two hours to tell us a story that could be told in a hour and a half so it has a light lack of rhythm. On the other hand, the rest of the actors are not bad and the story is well built and logic. I've been a little disappointed with this film, because I expected something better. The plot is interesting, but the result could have been better.

eve_waessle (Quoting) -What are you gonna do tonight?, -I'm gonna chop off my balls, but maybe i'll leave for tomorrow. That's the best side of being alone, one can do things whenever he wants!This is just a taste of Javier's obscure sense of humour when his life takes a new direction, after his long-term relationship and brand new wife, tells him that she met someone else and wants to leave him.The film is a laugh from the beginning to the end, as the main character, (Diego Peretti) tries to reconstruct his life, and get over Maria (Soledad Villamil), with comfort from his best friend, Martin, and the help of a psychoanalyst,(Marcos Mundstock from Les Luthiers).Characters and situations as real, as life itself; sad, but taken care of, as big problems, also can have a funny side... and the tenderness of falling in love again.Do not expect a 'super-honey-sweet film', it's a love story, but it shows the bitter side as well.

abisio NO SOS VOS, SOY YO (It's not you, it's me) is about an Javier and Maria, middle age Argentinean couple, living in a dangerous monotony, that decide to move to USA looking for better opportunities. Maria travels first, and few weeks later, announces Javier (her husband) that she had met somebody. The matrimony is over, and so is Javier's life. The movie comically (but sometimes very sour) documents his actions trying to overcome his depression about his failure in life, future and relationship.The movie stands above almost every recent (failed) love history recently in cinema; mostly because it does a great effort to avoid common places and situations. Dialogs and situations are very realistic but funny. Sadly, many of the best jokes will be very difficult to understand without knowledge of the Argentinean Spanish. Ultimately, are the writers (one of them is the only good woman in the movie) who give up and go for the easy way out; probably to satisfy most of the public.However, the main problem with the story is the main character. Diego Peretti is a very good actor (as is Soledad Villasmil, as the cheating wife), but his character is too real for his own good. It is unpleasant and very very difficult to like; making very difficult to feel any kind of sympathy for a person that you can bear even on the screen.Overall, the movie is not bad at all. It is not an easy comedy but a light and finally optimistic drama.
