Jose and Silvia are in love, and she is pregnant, so they decide to marry, but his mother doesn't want it and contract Raul to seduce Silvia in order to break this marrying. Bigas Luna makes a film to laugh about his own Spanish topics: Paella, Jamon, Toros...all mixed with some strange love stories that results on a yawning 90 minutes movie with only two or three things decent: The hams fighting between Raul and Jose and the bodies of a very young Penelope Cruz (by far, the best thing of the movie, maybe underage) and Javeier Bardem. The rest of the things, the jokes, the surrealistic setting does nothing more than annoy and bore. There's things better to do rather than seeing this film.
