Cheery, expertly constructed Spanish farce.
There's a manic quality to the film that may wear you down. But at least you won't be bored.
Moves along briskly, with several laugh-out-loud moments.
Mines the comic possibilities of the classic setup of introducing the fiancé to the family, with results that are playful, charming and surprisingly thoughtful.
A vigorously paced modern screwball comedy written and directed by the husband-and-wife team Dominic Harari and Teresa De Pelegrí, explores family values, and Leni and Rafi's mismatched cultural backgrounds, with a refreshingly light touch.
Unfortunately, the film is also at times dull, though the scale definitely tilts toward enjoyment. Quality balance aside, who doesn't want to enjoy a few hearty laughs? Only Human provides a few of those.
Attempts to achieve a Pedro Almodovar-level of humor without much success... Degenerating into witless slapstick.
