Critics' reviews

"Cheery, expertly constructed Spanish farce"

Lisa Schwarzbaum: Entertainment Weekly
"There's a manic quality to the film that may wear you down. But at least you won't be bored."

Ruthe Stein: SFgate
"Attempts to achieve a Pedro Almodovar-level of humor without much success... Degenerating into witless slapstick."

Frank Scheck: The Hollywood Reporter
"Moves along briskly, with several laugh-out-loud moments."

V.A. Musetto: New York Post
"Mines the comic possibilities of the classic setup of introducing the fiancé to the family, with results that are playful, charming and surprisingly thoughtful."

Mark Olsen: Los Angeles Times
