At his 50, Julian, divorced and with a cash problem, uses an app to share cars to travel Madrid. Falling in love with Lorena, an usual passenger, his troubles begin when in a trip two strangers join them.. Filmed in the Hotel Marqués de Riscal.. Features The Last Year in Marienbad (1961). Mr. Blue Skyby Electric Light Orchestra. It’s a good idea, not original but not that bad. The movie starts off fine but then it goes down from one unrealistic situation to another. Predictable and, most of the time, boring. Who has watched "The Day of the Beast" from the same director, will be highly disappointed. This isn’t witty at all. The situations are unrealistic, but not in the funny instant-classic way of the aforementioned movie. On the contrary, everything is predictable and gags go on and on endlessly, without any kind of planning. If you want to watch a Spanish movie, with a shared car story, try "Tell me where you travel". It’s not a very good movie but at least, the story is more compelling and the main character more interesting. Also there is a bit of mystery that goes on and some references to songs and popular Spanish culture. In this product, on the contrary, you can find nothing of that, bed scenes, love scenes, action scenes are mediocre. I give a 5 because it is watchable but, the 1hour 35 minutes seems to last forever, just one hour is enough to tell this story that goes nowhere.
