A great feel-good-roadmovie-sex-comedy combined with an intriguing narrator, commenting the political disorders in Mexico in a very light, but at the same time very effective way.

I love the exhilaratingly explored disintegration of sexual mores, I love the narrator's irony-drenched asides that pinpoint the characters' ignorance of a ravenous class divide and culture of corruption in Mexico, I love the last-minute revelation that brings a new context to every scene with a certain character, I love the joy that permeates every shot of this film.

Starts awful and almost brainless but when the road trip starts it becomes really fun and interesting. Ending was great. Yet another great performance from Bernal.

There are many things that make Y tu Mama Tambien unique.But i think the most important one is that all protagonist's spread their own amazing charme. Everything feel's comprehensible,beeing young,wild & free. making experience and be open minded for anyone.and at least this movie shows the evenescense of all things.if you want it or not.It is the way of the world so living la vida loca.

Good, but doesn't live up to the hype. Not especially profound. Some nice character moments, though. The two boys aren't very likable, and yet you still care about them and hope they turn out okay.

A film that succinctly examines the true function of fantasy and its brutal consequence. On the surface: A free, erotic journey for two best friends & their dream woman. In reality: A rapid structural disintegration of bonds created by shared fantastical desires & hidden obscenities, by way of total exposure to the object of desire itself. This applies to the viewers: At every turn, Cuarón breaks the rhythm of his indulgent roadtrip to remind us of the sociopolitical corruption in the periphery

A funny, immensely lively teen road trip sex movie with MEXICAN CINEMA MAGIC. All three lead characters take rich shape over the course of the film, and when all is said and done you've become emotionally involved. A very good film.

Beautiful scenery and a story full of life. Hollywood teenage road movies have a lot to learn from this gem.

A personal favorite. It's a strange, but mesmerizing journey that leaves you alone and gasping at the end (like life.) It's a movie that wants to say so much and says it so well and with such earnestness. A road movie-buddy comedy mashed with existential class and sexual commentary. Unbelievable. Also, I'm always a sucker for García Bernal, but it's Maribel Verdú who gives the best performance.

The first act is stupid and overacted. But in the end its a heartwarming, important movie about, well.... life.

It feels like a fun little road movie, but by the end of it, there's an unexplained emotional spike you can't quite describe, only feel. Yes there's sex, but there's much more beyond that.

Loved it. It really captures the essence of youth so well, the unintended ruthlessness, desire, crossing borders, liberation from the parental generation and yet still ending up doing exactly what they wanted you to.

The sexuality doesn't feel like an exhibition and is probably the closest to being realistically portrayed, with everything not being so much about sweat and soft focus and passion, but sometimes being embarrassing or funny. I also never realized how beautiful Mexico looked, I've always been afraid of it. The film is laid out almost as if everything the characters come across on their trip was by chance, making the story occur very spontaneously. And jesus, that woman has an ugly crying face.

Didn't get the hype. Sure, it's energetic and realistic and sexy and there's a neat melancholy undertone in the final scenes, plus some superb camerawork (Cuarón is a versatile talent). But for the most part it also seems kinda airless, not funny enough to be a clear-cut comedy, not focused enough to deliver a powerful message on human relationships and sexuality. Oh and I found the pompous narrator a crude way to add needless political context (Buñuel did that better).

I wouldn't normally describe a lot of movies as sexy, but I will make an exception here. It's funny to watch what is essentially a teenage road trip movie and getting a really deep experience out of it. It includes the stuff that is in the Hollywood movies in the same vain (sex, drugs, racy humor) but is done in such a deeper way it makes the Hollywood counterparts look like the work of hacks. Do not overlook this gem.

There are some things you can never have too much of. A sexy cast. Great chemistry. Road trips. The freedom of youth. Coming-of-age moments. Up-close-and-personal handheld camerawork combined with saturated, blown-out colours which evoke the sweaty heat of a tropical country. This movie has it all, and its laid-back attitude is a joy to watch. Whether you like the characters or not, it's hard not to tag along and imagine you are on a spontaneous Mexican holiday with two of your best friends.

Many focus on the sexual aspects of the film, and I suppose I can't fault them for that, but this film is bursting with life. A life is ending, while two lives aren't being lived, and all within the backdrop of a country impoverished but teaming with life. Brilliantly shot and a joy to watch.

Probably my favorite film about the teenage years, that also happens to be about Mexico. The female character is tragic, but there's still so much joy throughout, and I always want to go travel the world afterwards. The three leads range from good to great (I really like Bernal in this) and the editing, cinematography, and direction are all pitch-perfect.

A sorta sexy film that portrays teenagers pretty realistically. I mean, I guess you have to look like Gael Garcia Bernal in order to snag such a foxy cougar, but, you know, I thought it was pretty realistic.

Let me say this. The title is hilarious. Anyways. This is a classic road movie in the very best sense, with believable and realistic sex thrown in. It may be the best road movie I've ever seen. Maybe. I saw this thrown on to quite a few "best of the decade" lists, and I totally understand why. Don't watch the trailer though. It's so bad that it almost stopped me from watching the movie.

An abundance of life's elements that are filtered through this disintegrating relationship with time. This is a journey I appreciate, travelling past every emotion and making blunt stops at political and current statuses
