Seeing half way through this movie... it was very easy to pick up from and
know that there were: 3 couples, Insomnio demonstrates the highs and lows
of
these couples in a hilarious yet realistic manner....
Maybe some people dont like this movie because its not your typical
"Sleepless in Seattle" romantic comedy! I on the other hand like it
because
of this! It is in fact realistic and warm, however does not reach the
point
of soppy, tacky and lovey-dovey...

This is a sometimes sad, most of the time sparkling comedy that describes
vividly Spanish life at that moment, and situations that could cause
insomnia to most persons. I think anyone in the world could enjoy that
film,
although perhaps you must see the original version to catch all its
humour.
I give it 9/10.

Sleep deprivation is what this film is primarily about but the beauty in
it
is the levels it goes to. Why are the individuals experiencing insomnia?
Gender relations are explored and reflect resistance from the Franco
regime
in this Spanish film directed by a female director, leading to feminist
attitudes. The film is a journey in many ways. It's intriguing, it really
is.

For a comedy I find this film rather dull and unexciting. It's about the
trials and tribulations of three young couples falling in and out of love.
The film embraces all the petty annoyances and frustrations that beset us
in
our day to day lives. There are very few high spots in the film. The
presence of long-haired Juan (Ernesto Alterio) should perhaps be mentioned.
It's then that the scenes start to come alive and dare I say sparkle? The
church scene at the end of the film is perhaps the best when Juan tells his
bride as they move down the aisle that he doesn't love her. But she insists
that they must get married. "We can get a divorce tomorrow". Maybe I
don't
concentrate enough, but I find the various characters and their
relationships rather confusing. Perhaps a second viewing can sort this out
for me.
No! I prefer to watch something else. The truth is...too many films like
this one could result in a serious inability to laugh and that would be a
shame because comedies are made for laughter. But not this
one!
