It's a very nice Latino romantic comedy, fun, enjoyable, and touchy. (And believe me, I never liked romantic comedies before done by Mexican filmmakers) but this one is fresh, great acting, charming, very well directed and the production values are excellent. Never heard about this director before but it's obvious that his background is from advertising. Never saw an Mexico City so beautiful. I really enjoyed it and also it's fresh...I am tired of Latino films about drugs, gangs, thieves, rapes, immigration ... Latinos have ten thousands more positive stories, and this is one of them. (Especially that it makes fun of the macho men).

To be honest, I didn't expect much from this movie. It was over-hyped received lots of media attention. Now, not to be disrespectful with Mexican cinema but most Romantic Comedies from the past years have been total crap. Huge crap. So my expectations were minimal.I was correct in the first minutes. The movie was pretentious, it displayed a part of Mexican society that only exists in movies or in the rich class, it had clichèd characters, and crappy humor. I thought I was watching another novela or something like that.To my surprise and delight, the movie took an interesting direction towards the first half. The situations turned entertaining and with good humor. Yes, the technical values are not the best but still are candy for the eye. The direction is fast paced and has some decent camera angles. I mean, this does not look like a novela at least! Ana Serradilla is not a conventional beauty but she's very beautiful, sexy, charming, tender... and she delivers a fun, sexy, believable performance. She was funny but she also displayed great dramatic features when she had to cry, for example. She stole the show. I didn't know she was such a good actress. The rest of the cast is also very good although some actors are directly taken from novelas. Good job from Ana Layevska who is a fine actress with a sassy attitude.So if you are into the mood to have a good time with your girlfriend, watch this movie and you will see, believe me, she will be very happy with it. The ending is also great and will probably make your girl cry. Although I'm a huge obsessed Horror fan, I enjoyed "Cansada De Besar Sapos". One of the best Romantic Comedies from the new era of Mexican cinema. This is a fun movie with sexy bits and a charming plot.

I thought this film was great. Being use to flashy Hollywood films, I caught this movie during Christmas vacation. I absolutely loved it. The acting was good, the storyline was interesting. I felt like this was the story of someone I knew or maybe even something that could happen to me. Very real and entertaining to the last minute. The soundtrack was phenomenal. I recommend this movie and thanks to this experience will now make a better effort to support Mexican films. I was pleasantly surprised by Ana's versatily and credibility in the supporting role. I only knew her as a soap opera actress. PLease go see this movie. It's great for a girls night out, a first date or just on your own.

We all know that Mexican film industry produce a lot, but sometimes is hard to watch a lot of those movies because they are not commercial. Now "Cansada de Besar Sapos" is the chosen one to exhibit on movie theaters."Cansada de Besar Sapos" tells the story of a girl tired of being cheated to by her boyfriend, the girl is Martha (Ana Serradilla) a interior designer. So she decides to search for mr. right now in the web, and become a "hombreriega".She could've been a portrayal of a very strong woman, but the director (or maybe someone else) chooses to settle for the "fairy tale version" of this story.It is a funny movie, but you have a very recently example of another Mexican movie called "Asi del precipicio", a little more daring to show a girl reality in this country (and a bit more entertaining, I have to say).Ana Serradilla has star potential. But the surprise is Miguel Rodarte in "another gay role", I hope to see more of this actor in better roles. And also kudos for the art direction and the soundtrack, both, excellent.An enjoyable movie.
