If you have a chance to see this movie please do. It is at it's core, a heartwarming father daughter story, with themes of love & rising to the occasion when the shit hits the fan.
I was privileged to go to a private screening hosted by its director, writer & star Eugenio Derbez last night in Mexico City. If you know of him, he's really known for comedies & his comedic sensibilities. There is definitely plenty to laugh at in the movie, but at the end you are left with bittersweet tears & a sense that you've witnessed what true love is.

FYI, it's mostly in Spanish with English subtitles.

I read either an interview with Derbez or an article by him, I can't remember which, a handful of years ago. He seemed to have a warm, charming sense of humor. I never have seen his films but I'm thinking I need to. I'll start with the one you recommend then work backward.
We need an SI forum called "The Screening Room" for movie reviews (and trigger warnings).
