Nasty, egocentric, woman-child uses extreme measures to get a man and then lose him. That's basically it. Horrible, horrible, acting intermingled with awkward and strange, yet completely boring scenes.

After I stopped, I read all the reviews to see if I should keep going, and so some of my comments are prompted by those. I apologise for not finishing the movie and still writing a review. I know that's not really fair, but I just couldn't take it anymore and when I read the reviews it seems my problem with the movie wasn't going to go away. I would have persevered if the reviews had been different. Especially as my bar for watching was pretty low since I'm practicing my Spanish comprehension and am watching anything halfway decent as an educational exercise. I don't think I had an issue with the main character and her cohort being marriage-obsessed. I get that some women are, regardless of the culture they're from. I get that some cultures are very marriage-obsessed and the pressure on any woman after she turns 20 or 21 to get married before she becomes unmarriageable and worthless is real. I wasn't conscious that this was an impediment to my enjoyment of the movie. I enjoy a lot of movies from cultures that aren't mine, with viewpoints that aren't mine. Unlike some other reviewers, I thought the acting was good - very good. The main actor, Cassandra Ciangherotti, did a great job portraying a very real character. She has an element of Kristen Wiig about her - awkward, funny, very mobile and expressive face. She was completely believable as Ana. I'm going to see what else she's in. The problem was that I hated Ana. I would have found her selfish, fake, narcissistic, unpleasant, and immature had she been 13 years old. For a character who is supposedly in her late 20s, she's unbearable. She's awful to family, friends, everyone -- and refuses to see it. I thought this movie would be about how the shock of a breakup caused real introspection and growth, but 1 hour and 6 minutes into it I saw no evidence this was happening. Instead of becoming a better and more mature human being, she just kept getting worse. Ana was so bad that the relationship with the good guy she meets is entirely unbelievable - why on earth does he fall in love with her? What can they possibly talk about? They have nothing in common. What does she have to offer any intelligent, adult man (or anyone)? There is nothing to Ana except her self-absorption and obsession with doing anything it takes to get married. TL;DR - The main character (not the actress) is an awful human being and I feel like her awfulness was cross-cultural.

Hmm...Seems to be getting a bit of a bashing for nonsense like being dubbed, or the character has the wrong name, is unappealing etc...1 star seriously? Well I smell BS!! The nonsense 'woke' idea is that a woman in the modern world is now = to a man. To portray otherwise means vicious 1 star ratings and reviews online! The hate and nonsense low ratings for for this movie is without a doubt from the woke crowd. A few of them must have a meme going on twitter, effective where there are only a few reviews like this movie presently, to snuff out these 'anti-feminist' movies of women facing the reality of finding a mate in time and even worse scheme to marry them! Don't let them put you off!! This is a genuinely funny, warm and touching movie.It honestly got me laughing every few minutes and its been quite a while since a movie did that! This is almost like a female version of 'School for Scoundrels' (1960) but funnier and more modern! I didn't think anything like this could come from Mexico! Loved it!

This is the kind of films that portrays that women can only have one goal in life: getting married. The plot is absolutely mediocre. There are no plot twists nor entertaining story telling. The humor is not smart at all. If you decide to waste your time watching this, prepare to yourself to watch the worst acting in the recent mexican film industry. Thinking about the amount of wasted money in this makes me feel so bad.

After a painful breakup when it turned out that her partner was certainly not thinking about marriage, Ana (Cassandra Ciangherotti) is encouraged to join a class intended to help women find a husband. These women's lives seem to be ridiculously focused on marriage, but maybe that is true of some people. Ana is very much the centre of the movie. She starts out gawky, 2-dimensional, self-centered, and maybe a little bit over-acted, but as she works her way through men and makeovers, on her voyage of self-discovery, some things gradually improve. Yet for the early part of the movie and quite a long way through, Ana's character is hard to take and it's even harder to feel any sympathy for her. The film has several female characters of the same physical type, with similar hair and colouring. This might be partly my weakness, but at times - especially with the makeovers, I lost track of who was who. I watched the English dubbed version, curtesy of Netflix. I think that dubbing has improved quite significantly over the last few years, perhaps as the technology has helped a little. But it still does make for a little detachment from the characters which is a shame. This certainly isn't a great movie, but maybe good for a wet Sunday afternoon on the sofa. 6/10.

Even though there were entertaining scenes, it was super hard to watch most of the time. The main actress is not like able at all, she is super awkward, needy, annoying and childish, plus painfully selfish... whichled her to make a very cruel decision, just to get what she wanted. The supporting actresses were way more interesting and funny. It's a shame because the main idea was promising... Good actors, location, but they didn't know how to deliver it (in my opinion of course). Also, the end sucked, after having watched the entire film just to at least find out how everything was going to turn out, they don't show us much and ends without much warning... I am actually frustrated with this movie. Won't be recommending this.

So the main actor Ana really did well to her role. Appreciate her , too genuine. I liked all the characters but was expecting Diego to come back :D

THIS MOVIE MADE ME SHOUT OUT LOUD, DANCE, SCREAM IN FRUSTRATION, AND AT THE END I WAS SINGING ALONG WITH THE WOMEN, THE GREAT LYRICS TO "A QUIÉN LE IMPORTA"!!! Honestly, I don't understand why there's such a low average rating. Maybe it has to do with the cultural barrier that's built in to this type of movie. As someone who is "MexicoAmericana", (like the song by La Santa Cecilia), I completely get the movie. Whenever I was in Mexico, whether for school or to visit, the only important thing appeared to be the possibility of my marriage. This movie hits all the pressure points that a woman faces. Especially in a culture where at 30 you are considered left on shelf. Watch it, and you can enjoy it beyond expectations, if you remember that not every culture is American.

I really enjoyed this movie, the main actress is really funny and I think she conveys the character's feelings and internal turmoil pretty well. The point of the whole movie is that she discovers herself rather than the perfect husband in the end, which is why she starts out as a little self centered but ends up being truly able to feel happy for her friend's marriage, even though her own attempt failed or to actually listen to her sister's problems. I think people who disliked the movie and say the ACTRESS (and not the character) is awkward and selfish are used to cheesy american rom-coms and totally missed the main idea.

Promising Idea but the movie turned at the end as a replica of "How to be single". Developing Idea but bad finishing really i thought there was more to it. Not meeting my expectations really.
