IMPORTANT - Buy the Unrated Version

Date of Review:  Jul 14, 2004
The Bottom Line: This is a fantastic movie. It is everything American film-making used to be.
Review: I will explain why you should see the unrated version of this film, but first, what I will not do in this review is explain the plot of this film—this has been successfully elucidated by many other reviewers. In addition, I am a person that likes to...

Looking for truth with the Astral Cowboys

Date of Review:  Jun 7, 2002
The Bottom Line: Despite good critical acclaim, I wasn't really expecting much. Which allowed me to enjoy the film even more. In hindsight, I've learned a valuable lesson: trust the critics!
Review: In his last film, the Ethan Hawke/Gwyneth Paltrow remake of "Great Expectations", I felt like director Alfonso Cuaron wasn't able to fully spread his wings and use all his talents. Hampered by the rigid structure of the book, Cuaron had to scratch...

It's not Porn if it Has Subtitles, Right?

Date of Review:  Oct 26, 2002
The Bottom Line: 'It must be the heat.'
Review: Last night, Y Tu Mama Tambien was playing in my university's film series. I'd never seen the cinema so packed. Hundreds of students packed the theatre and dozens more queued outside. No doubt everyone had heard that this film features a lot of...

Charolastra! Y TU MAMA TAMBIEN on DVD

Date of Review:  Nov 3, 2002
The Bottom Line: Y TU MAMA TAMBIEN is one of the most surprising films I have seen, and I thought it was an overall superb piece of filmmaking.
Review: Y TU MAMA TAMBIEN is an IFC Films presentation, and is unrated but contains strong sexual content involving teens, drug use and language. It runs 105 minutes and opened in limited theatrical release March 15, 2002.

More Than a Mere Teen Sex Romp

Date of Review:  Mar 26, 2004
The Bottom Line: A sensuous coming-of-age film exploring the underpinnings of sexuality, with humor and excellent performances
Review: The big debate about Y Tu Mama Tambien, from director Alfonso Cuarón, seems to be whether it is or is not more than simply a titillating teen sex romp. Certainly this coming-of-age road film is sensual and sometimes downright lewd, but it is...

Date of Review:  Apr 9, 2004
The Bottom Line: No plot, no payoff, but a good movie.
Review: I can't really say I understand Y Tu Mama Tambien. I liked it; I enjoyed it watching it, and I'll even recommend it, but at the end, I was just thinking, "What was the point?" It reminds me more of The 25th Hour than I'd like it to. It tells a...

Beavis and Butthead's distant Mexican relatives "do" (huh-huh) Mexico

Date of Review:  Apr 26, 2003
The Bottom Line: Y Tu Mama refers to the fact that a teen male friend had sexual intercourse with his best male friend's mother. Just a warning about the film's bizarreness.
Review: Donde esta el "Cornholio Magnifico"?

Tenoch and Julio, two teenage Mexican boys with no particular focus or meaning in their lives, take a road trip with an older married woman in her early thirties who is married to one of the teen's...

"Y Tu" is an import that deserves to be seen by the daring!

Date of Review:  Apr 26, 2002
The Bottom Line: Profoundly sad, simulatenously sexy, and ultimately, very moving. A must-see!
Review: The context in which the title ?Y Tu Mama Tambien,? is revealed is one of those instances where you?re unsure if you should laugh or feel sorry for the characters. In English, the title is ?And Your Mama Too.? I simply that it was a new form of hip...

not for your mother and your next movie to buy too

Date of Review:  Jun 4, 2002
The Bottom Line: A film about a summer of self-discovery, after which nothing will be the same again but yet it redefines nothing.
Review: Y tu mama tambien (and your mother too)

It's about two teenage boys and an impulsive journey with an older woman that involves sexual discoveries. But it is also about the two Mexicos. And it is about the fragility of life and the finality...

Those who criticize fail to see the point of the movie

Date of Review:  Nov 23, 2002
The Bottom Line: This film is about identity, two teenagers and a woman seeking their identity, but most importantly a COUNTRY seeking its own identity as well.
Review: Even though everyone is entitled to their opinion, I think some who criticize the movie fail to understand the point of it.

Although Cuaron includes numerous sexual episodes, that's not really what his film is about. This film is about...
