Laws of attractions
How beautifully a summer can be spent with best friends who are totally attracted to each other. Nuances of being Gay are well portrayed in this film. Their jokes, subtle jealously, laughs and negotiating their relationship with each other all through was very well played by Javier Orán and Lautaro Bettoni. They have become my hot favourites, its like I know them up close and personal. Some of the moments in the film are so pure and basic elements of being in love are shown. Marco Berger has done a fantastic job of bringing out these actors who are so free in those scenes and have long conversations without cuts just felt so beautiful, natural and it was like watching their own personal videos. Aww..I already miss them...Lots of love.

Marco Berger's best film
After a decade of great films exploring male sexuality, Marco Berger (Plan B, The Blonde One) is back with his best and most accomplished film to date.
This time around he delivers an inspired romantic comedy packed with funny moments and excellent performances from the leads (Lautaro Bettoni and Javier Orán) as two childhood friends reunited as adults.
There is a lot to like about this film.
The long shots and conflict-free script create the perfect intimacy set for their friendship to flourish into something more. I also enjoyed the soundtrack (which elevates some of the key scenes) and the strong supporting cast.
One of the best gay films in recent memory. Highly recommended.

Good till you realize It gets nowhere
Horrendously boring
{EDIT: I haven't reported the people who deleted my review to IMDb, but I shall do if it gets taken down again. Just because you disagree with an opinion doesn't mean you can delete a review}
I put up with this inconsequential rubbish for forty minutes. I clicked to have a look at how much more of the film there was to go and realised I would never be able to stand it for another seventy minutes more and flicked out.
The two leads were attractive but the shadow boxing around whether they'd get it on or not grated after a while. Teasing and barbed, clever small talk just started to get on my nerves.
Another problem was that there was so much dialogue that the subtitles flashed up for such a short time per sentence that I had to concentrate on them and not on the action or the characters on the screen. I speak and understand some Spanish but this was beyond me.
So, I have no idea if the two lads got it on together and I don't care.
Marco Berget is become a cliché of himself. I loved The Blond One but since then his output has been zilch that's interesting. I actually wondered if the actors were embarrassed about having to speak these dreadful lines.
Don't waste your time.
