Rachel
is working in Mexico City as a diplomatic consul for the U.S. Embassy. Alejandro comes to the Embassy to get a
visa to take his daughter to live with her grandparents in the
U.S. He worries because she doesn’t
have a mother to raise her and he is concerned for her safety. Her mother died and Alejandro believes
this will be the best living arrangement for Maria. Rachel
isn’t listening to what he is saying about the reason for the visa and she turns him
down. She is distracted because she will be leaving soon for
a new post in London. There is a
going away party for her and she gets very drunk. She was entrusted with the safekeeping of a computer belonging to her boss and
when she wakes up, it is gone.
Alejandro offers to help her.
This
movie is overlong with a LOT of Mariachi singing plus a lengthy roundabout search
for the missing computer. It
follows the 1, 2, 3 pattern of a romance movie with just a few changes. 2 ½* (This movie is so-so)
111
min, Comedy directed by Pedro Pablo Ibarra with Laura Ramsey, Jaime Camil, Omar
Chaparro, Catherine Papile, Renata Ybarra, Stockard Channing, Tom Arnold,
Roberto Sosa, Carlos Macias.
Note: 5.7 out of 10, 55% critic 74% audience
