Keith F. Hatcher The story-line could have been rather more successful if it were not for the fact that not only the director was bent on getting it all in with just 100-odd minutes, but also the actors seemed to gang up with him to rattle off their say in the matter at a dizzy speed, such that the spectator is left rather breathless. If the film had been carried out at a speed rather a long way below that of light, we might well have been able to savour some scenes which would undoubtedly have improved by being blessedly more reposed in their enacting.The fact that Sergi López could never impress me, let alone convince me, whether he were a barman, lion-tamer, monk, or anything else, but as a doctor psychiatrist not at all, is quite beside the point. The question is that the speed with which his character, and the others in this film, rattle off their dialogues, only left me saying to myself: but people do not talk like that. There was no natural intonation; the dialogues were spat out so precipitatedly that there was no way in which any kind of feeling for what was being said could be transposed onto the screen; thus there were no visual possibilities of deducing any kind of interpretation of real people who tend to say things very much in a different way. However, more misfortunate than anything else, it is precisely among some of Dr. Miguel's patients that I found some of the more interesting characterization in this film.In the end, things were just too tiresome to take in; one could not give a damn as to what happened to Miguel or anybody else. Someone should make this film again, with better actors, a different director, and far more slowly. Then everything would make more sense. But as it is, this film left me neither entertained, nor pleased, nor worried, and I could not care less.The only good point, I suppose, was that Lucio Godoy produced some interesting pieces in the music. But as for the rest, I interject that I want to see real people playing out their parts - not machine-gunfire deliveries at point-blank range which did absolutely nothing to enhance either the comedy category or the romance genre into which supposedly this film is classified.

Andres Rais Sergi Lopez portrays a psychologist (Miguel) who was recently abandoned by her wife Sara. What is even worse, his wife left him with her mother in-law (Elvira). With the help of his friend David (Emilio G. Caba), he will try to do the best. Elvira turns sick. She's sent to and hospital. And... finally he mets (you decide if it is by chance) Jasmina (played by Mariola Fuentes)and both fall in love because the have similar stories. I'll say something: Sergi Lopez, born in Barcelona, with experience in French movies and Spanish movies, is the best actor of Spain. He is very well escorted by Caba (another very good actor) and Mariola Fuentes did a very good job in constructing her character. Alfonso (the mother in-law) is impressive too. What is even better, the music and all the technical part of the picture. I saw this movie three times and I am still convinced that this romantic movie is one of the best shown in Argentina over the past few years. I'll give it a 9 out of 10. Andres.

Robinson Almanzar "El cielo abierto" is an excellent story about finding true love in difficult situations.This movie tells the story of Miguel, a tormented Psychologist -portrayed by Sergi Lopez- whose life falls apart after being abandoned by his "beloved" wife, but until the day he finally meets Jasmina, one of his patients' relatives, everything begins to change.Jasmina tenderly creates an honest and beautiful bond by helping his mother-in-law overcome a very serious health problem and helping Miguel to forget his recent love failure while falling in love with him too. These situations will hardly test Miguel just when his wife returns from a trip and he has to choose between his old love and this lovely but weird Jasmina."El cielo abierto" is a fantastic and fresh story that really stays away from the never-ending endless clichés about romantic comedies.

xu A psychiatrist abandoned by his wife is left to look after his mother-in-law who is undergoing an operation; in the meantime one of his patients' sister pays him back the money her drug-addict brother stole from him. This is a comedy full of tenderness, with a witty, kind of surrealistic humour, and with a brilliant interpretation of all actors. The gallery of all insane or mentally disturbed characters adds more spice to the film, making the psychiatrist wonder if at the end he's not becoming like them.
