I watched this without subtitles and pretended I was a butler who lied about speaking Spanish on his resume during the rich people scenes and then me for the other scenes. It was a slog. I was over bored *Gene Shalit twirl *

It's really hard not to like a movie with Anna Faris, but they made some monumental mistakes. The actors speak in both English and Spanish, but I had no subtitles. They reused the original script with just a gender swap. I genuinely tried to enjoy this, but by the end I felt alienated and disappointed. Almost nothing was fresh or new. Eugenio Derbez's character was unlikable and unconvincing.

It's just another over the top film that takes a premise that could have a half decently poignant message and turns it into an incoherent mess of muddy dialogue and subtitles. Very little chemistry among the cast. Faris was the wrong choice as was the over acting on display. Typical rom com with very little redeeming qualities. Just a poor film with even an worse ending.

Silly but watchable remake is hurt largely by Faris' cruel and unpleasant character and a leaden screenplay (at least for the first half) - once Derbez (delivering a charming performance) begins to fit in to his new life, the film picks up considerably, leading to an enjoyable enough second half and setting the required groundwork for the feel-good ending. Still a very strange candidate for a remake; one has to think that Kurtz's largely extraneous role was a cameo wisely passed on by Goldie!

I wasn't aware of the original until after I watched this version. While the plot may be troublesome with its casual gaslighting and probable rape, it is also ridiculous, nonsensical and so implausible that any concerns based in reality can be dismissed by the film's implicit association with fantasy. All things considered, it's a silly light-hearted movie that made me laugh. Debrez is great, bringing a soap-operatic energy that works well. His chemistry with Faris is middling but not essential.

I rented this movie, despite the bad reviews, basically because there was nothing else I was interested in at the box. I really enjoyed the original version, so I figured this would just be a pathetic re-telling and I'd agree with all the reviews and I'd hate it. Nope, I actually quite enjoyed it. Sorry.

Basically just kind of there, not bad enough to detest but not good enough to get a passing grade from me. I laughed a couple times and I enjoy Faris, but that's about all I can say. The rest wasn't always easy to get through.

Just as troublesome as the original gaslighting version, but Anna Faris is always fun and this was a surprisingly heartfelt romance. Bonus points for being almost 20% subtitled, unfathomable for a rom-com.

I'm too much of an Anna Faris simp to hate this. And having a gazillion romantic comedies under my belt, I have to be honest with you and say that this isn't terrible. Bats most of Hallmark mush out of the game.

Faris executes a convincing impersonation of Goldie Hawn, whereas Derbez is not so much a Mexican version of Kurt Russell as a B-grade Mexican version of Billy-Bob Thornton. The contrast between Faris' and Derbez's performances makes starkly apparent that some people can act and others can not.

I watched this movie when I had COVID for the first time. I thought I hallucinated most of it.

An inoffensive remake of the original, which wasn't that great either. Anna Faris does a good job and the child actors aren't terrible. I appreciate the Spanish portions instead of typical bad accents. Nice fake-out of the reveal which also rehabilitated Kate before the real reveal. Fav scenes: Leo's work adventures.

Predictable and underdeveloped, but still somehow fun and heartfelt. The gender swap lessens how problematic the original was, but you still miss Goldie Hawn, though Faris is a passable substitute.
