Summary: Breaking Rule #5 of the Manifesto
Comment: Y Tu Mama Tambien isn't really all that deep. However, it's a great movie because it displays that male-bonding and behavior transcends culture. An inside look at young males between 16 and 24 in Mexico is the same as young men in the USA. Fart jokes, going to parties, drugs, making smart-alec remarks, hitting on women, and an insatiable sexual apetite (satisfied through perpetual masturbation in this movie) dominate life. Although, the open homoeroticism doesn't seem to translate as well - which probably has more to do with Europe's relaxed sexual nature.

Tenoch and Julio are wild-living best friends who are intent on doing as much drugs and having as much sex as possible. During a summer in which their girlfriends travel abroad to Italy, they set out to add an impressive notch to their belt: an older woman, and a possible menage a tois.

They meet up with Luisa, the Spanish wife of Tenoch's yuppie cousin, and because of marital infidelity, Luisa is seeking a little revenge.

In no time at all, the three are talking about sex and the tension is building. Before long Tenoch sleeps with Luisa - less than a minute, if you're wondering - and the love triangle unfolds. Soon enough after that, Luisa and Julio get it on - also less than a minute - and the jealousy reigns supreme. It is because of this jealousy that each makes a startling confession: each one has had sex with the other's girlfriend. After that confession it gets a little wierder.

Great movie, crazy sexual tension, incredible character development...a movie I highly recommend.

Summary: A nonintellectual opine
Comment: This was the very first spanish speaking movie I purchased. I have since become an adict. I love the realism of the Mexican scenes. I love the reality of the young men's adventures. It's true that it is a "coming of age" type movie which depicts two young males adventurous beach trip with a slightly older female.

I gasped at the ending, but I quickly recovered. I generally don't like unhappy endings. At first I perceived this ending as unhappy, but I don't feel that way after having time for reflection. It's a movie I often recommend to openminded folk. On the occassion I am allowed to "forcefeed" a friend a subtitled movie, the friends have ALL liked this movie and have recommended it to others.

Summary: Where is the warning?
Comment: This excellent movie was ruined by a scene that lasted about four seconds .
There should have been a warning on the package or in the review about male homosexuality.
I know it's ok with some people, but there should be a warning for those of us who are not into that.

Summary: Boys will be boys?
Comment: Boys will be boys, ok i guess thats an accurate statement. But boys will not make out sexually with their best friends. At least they shouldn't. This movie started out pretty good, once they start out on a roadtrip with a little marijuana-usage, you think you begin to see where the director is going with it. But you don't. May the surprises begin. I watched this movie with some of my guy friends one night, and i'd say for the laughs, it was worth it. To this day all i gotta say in accordance with some kind of insult is Y Tu Tambien and its still funny. But honestly, as film, its not bad at all. As far as acting, direction, production and all that. But as these little unpredicted "homosexual events" happen, i began to lose interest. The funny thing is, regardless of how gay it got, we just kept watching it til the end. We kept saying to ourselves, ok theres no way it can get any gayer then this, but we were proved wrong too many times. The motivating factor for finishing this movie was the lonely housewife, WOW. I don't even care if they turned gay, you gotta respect them for getting with her. Reason enough to watch the movie right there. Hands down

Editorial Reviews:

Plenty of juicy "s" words apply to And Your Mother Too: sexy, sweet, subtle, sad, surprising, superb... and did we say sexy? With enough male and female nudity to qualify as softcore porn--but deserving none of the stigma attached to that label--this vibrant coming-of-age road movie is guaranteed to jumpstart any viewer's libido. Frank treatment of its characters' burgeoning sexuality makes this unrated film a real eye-opener, but it's never prurient or juvenile. Rather, the three-way odyssey of two 17-year-old Mexican boys (Gael Garca Bernal, Diego Luna) and a 28-year-old Spanish beauty (Maribel Verd) is energetic and affirmative, while acknowledging that relationships--and sexual adventures--rarely develop without a hitch or two (or three). Filmed in sequence by Alfonso Cuarn (Great Expectations), and shot with invigorating natural style, this refreshing comedy-drama employs an omniscient narrator to reflect upon precious stolen moments, weaving three lives into a memorable tapestry of fun, friendship, and fate. --Jeff Shannon
