Trailer
Why watch this film?
Cinematic adaptation of the successful 90s telenovela of the same name. La Usurpadora tells the same story: a kind and young woman from Las Vegas meets her identical twin, a cold and egocentric woman, who offers her money to go to Mexico and pass as her with her family. Although it lacks complexity in terms of visuals and linguistics, you will enjoy it musically if you like music from Selena, Celia Cruz or Paulina Rubio.

From the same director
Cindy la regia
Based on the iconic comic book character created by Ricardo Cucamonga, 'Cindy la regia' is a comedy faithful to the original material - that is, it pokes fun at Mexican social stereotypes, particularly the preconceived differences between regios (natives of Monterrey) and chilangos (those from Mexico City). Even though these cultural issues may pass us Brazilians by, the feature is entertaining in the Mexican style, that is, with its exaggerations and all that comes with the package (for better or for worse).
Hasta que la boda nos separe
The process of preparing for a wedding is long and arduous, despite all the joy of the celebration. There are many complications arising from the decision on who will be the organizer, what will be the band, finding the ideal videographer, buying the dress... and, on top of that, pleasing everyone! Although it is based on the Russian movie 'Gorko!', 'Hasta que la boda nos separe' is perfectly adapted to the Mexican context by screenwriter and director Santiago Limón, with hilarious consequences for each situation faced. Much of the credit for this good result is due to the charismatic main couple, Diana Bovio and Gustavo Egelhaaf. In addition to the jokes and appearances of celebrities such as Roberto Palazuelos and Adal Ramones, this comedy stands out among others of contemporary Mexican cinema for using the "mockumentary" resource (like 'Borat' and '[REC]' or series like 'The Office' and 'Modern Family), cleverly disguising it under the pretext that the brother-in-law is making the wedding video. To laugh, have fun and rethink if it's worth having a huge wedding party.
No, porque me enamoro
For those who like teenage romantic comedies and a good cinematic fluff, 'No, porque me Enamoro' is a great choice. The movie is packed with an endless range of clichés, and pure juice of teenage movie in the best style of a mix of 'Rebelde' with Disney Channel. It goes without saying that one should not expect a masterpiece of quality or a sophisticated narrative, obviously that is not what this movie sets out to deliver, but for fans of a comfortable movie with touches of cuteness and that atmosphere of teenage crisis, this is the choice.
