Movie Reviews of Y Tu Mama Tambien

Movie Review: Breaking Rule #5 of the Manifesto
Summary: 4 Stars

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 of Y Tu Mama Tambien

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
"Two thumbs way up" ("Ebert & Roeper and the Movies")! From world-renowned director Alfonso Cuar n (Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban Great Expectations) comes this "provocatively and unapologetically sexual" (Los Angeles Times) coming-of-age tale. Nominated* for an Oscar? and a Golden Globe? this sizzling box-office sensation is not only "raucously funny" (New York Post) but also "one of the most compellingly sexy movies ever made" (The San Diego Union-Tribune).Julio and Tenoch are two teens ruled by raging hormones and a mission to consume exotic substances. But one summer the boys learn more about life than they bargain for when they set off on a wild cross-country road trip with seductive 28-year-old Luisa. Both boys taste forbidden fruit as Luisa schools them in the finer points of passion but will their mutual desire for her destroy their friendship forever?Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: LATIN/DRAMA Rating: NR UPC: 027616879677 Manufacturer No: 1003846
