Reception[]

Raquel Hernández Luján of HobbyConsolas gave it 72 out of 100 points,[11] deeming it to be a "fun film", praising the developments around the Belén Rueda's character, while considering that some secondary characters could have been removed.[11]

In El Periódico de Catalunya, Beatriz Martínez rated the film with 3 out of 5 stars, deeming it to be a "competent" mainstream product which, commonplaces and plot cliches notwithstanding, is endowed with a sensibility removed from conventionalisms when approaching the characters, particularly the female ones.[12]

Miguel Anxo Fernández of La Voz de Galicia highlighted Rueda's performance, also writing that the film confirms director Arantxa Echevarría as a consolidated value, while noting that the comedy features a tendency to absurdity which may put viewers off at certain moments, reasoning that a degree of "restraint" would have benefited the film.[5]
