Una excelente producción mexicana, a mi gusto una de las mejores peliculas mexicanas de los ultimos tiempos, basada en el libro, narra la vida de una mujer casada con un militar en los tiempos post-revolución.
El guión y dialogo es estupendo, no te aburriras.
Recomendable! -

I read the book about a year ago, and it's my favorite book. This movie is not bad, but, since the book unfolds several little stories, the movie is just the main story, so the movie is missing like half the book. Now that I've finished my review, just to bragg, I know Daniel Giménez Cacho's niece, she's my age.

MCT:October 5, 2008The opposite thing happened with Mamma Mia!, I didn't like the book so I saw this film with low expectations that were overpassed. The characters are entertaining and is one of the few times we can see the Mexico of old times on film. Like most of the stories about someone's life (and specially when its inspired on a book) it might seem a little bit long but not boring. It's Ok but not great.
Me encanta la Talancón pero la verdad no le creí el personaje. Nunca veo la diferencia y el proceso de madurez, me pareció que siempre se quedò en los 18. El resto del elenco me pareció bueno (hay muchos actores famosos haciendo muy pequeños papeles) y la historia me pareció entretenida pero no lo suficientemente fuerte como para la manga producción que implicó (pero valió la pena ver un Mexico de antaño representado con calidad) -

Lately, there haven't been a lot of Mexican films worthy of bragging about, but thankfully, ARRANCAME LA VIDA is here to fix that. The most expensive film in the history of Mexican cinema, and one of the best of the last decade, this amazing period piece is very close to becoming a classic. The music, costumes and visual elements are exquisite. The script is sharp, and it's also very funny when it has to. Which brings me to the highlight of the film, one of my favorite actors, Daniel Gimenez Cacho. His performance is great, successfully blending General Ascencio's charismatic exterior with his shady, mean personality. Ana Claudia Talancón is stunningly beautiful and also gives a strong performance. Her transition from naive teenager to a powerful woman is very convincing. The style of the film reminded me a little of another favorite film of mine, Atonement.

MCT:October 3, 2008De la historia, ni hablar. La película, bien dirigida, excelentes actuaciones (bueno de Tavira no me acaba de convencer). Tiene su crítica política, sus partes romantica, partes chistosas, muy buena.
