Reception
Alberto Corona of eldiario.es highlighted a racist form of representation conveyed by the film, otherwise resenting "the feeling of watching several episodes of a series strung together without any sense of coherence" [rather than a film].[7]
Enid Román Almansa of Cinemanía rated the film 1 out of 5 stars, citing that the saddest thing was admitting that it was a single scripted scene that actually managed to bring a smile to the reviewer's face.[8]
