We have just been to watch the last Almodovar to the cinema, and what a major sad disappointment it has been! I did not expect very much of it, in spite of the fact that another choral comedy similar to "Mujeres" should have been appealing... Being an Almodovar fan for more than 20 years, I can say this is his worst movie of all times, only comparable to his first experimental ones, which at least were provocative and fresh. It is as naive, immature, badly narrated and acted, but on top of all that, its humor is so rancid and old fashioned it is embarrassing to watch. One can see the lack of money, but that is not excuse to make such a mediocre film. I cannot even imagine how he will manage to make the next one. Again, the director's obsessive frustration with sexuality is his enemy, but this time it becomes just pathetic. Only positive comment should go to the women dresses, beautiful as always. Sad, very sad...
