Release
Reception
Jordi Costa of Fotogramas rated the film 2 out of 5 stars, declaring it as a "wasted opportunity" with the film "burdening its occasional successes under the weight of what has been ruined".[1]
Javier Ocaña of El País wrote that "[crafted with] eminently commercial pretensions", the product "maintains a firm sense of dignity in its first half, but falls apart when the story abandons naturalism and picaresque elements".[11]
