Funny, eccentric and touchingly just, combining a unique interpretation of the time with an offbeat sense of humor.
Banderas directs capably enough to keep the film lively.
An ungainly fit of three stories that have no business being shoehorned into the same movie.
Inadvertently does with the civil rights movement exactly what Banderas set out not to do: trivializes it.
Tries with intermittent success to juggle two stories.
As campy as a flick by Banderas' evident artistic mentor, Pedro Almódovar.
Although Banderas occasionally shows flashes of style, individual elements too often go together like grits in a puff pastry.
