Paredes-Meias

This romantic comedy is built on a completely ridiculous premise. But when you have the epitome of Spanish beauty, Aitana, in the lead role, it all takes on a dreamy, fantastical vibe. Those with a soft spot for romance will eat this movie up. (22/04/2024)

Well, it was a romantic comedy, so if anyone expected a plot that would challenge their intellect or offer a surprising twist, they might have misunderstood the genre. I got exactly what I signed up for: a predictable, sometimes cute, often clichéd story that didn't exactly sweep me off my feet but didn't leave me cringing either. The main heroine was quite likable, and it was a surprise to learn she wasn't actually an actress (explains the singing!). The main hero, on the other hand, fit the neglected and worn-out role just right. Despite the story being somewhat weak and bordering on silly, I found myself not minding spending an hour and a half with it. That's probably why I'm giving it three stars. / Lesson learned: Got noisy neighbors? Invest in some soundproofing. (15/04/2024)
