My Fault is a Spanish film written and directed by Domingo González and is based on the novel by Mercedes Ron. It stars Nicole Wallace and Gabriel Guevara.
A film that goes beyond film criticism and is beyond neorealism, nouvelle vague and all the pedantry you can think of.
Pure “mischievousness” at the service of testosterone, estrogen, and the hottest youth eager to have a very, very good time.
Movie Review
Just by how it begins you already know that this is what it’s all about: a lot of music that requires pills to be able to enjoy it, car races, bands and a pinch of class struggle to, all mixed with a very badass sauce, come up with this film designed only and exclusively for young people.
Poor quality in the dialogues and situations… good editing, though. Characters that go nowhere, a story that could have been spared… but this movie knows how to take advantage of its charm.
Let me give you an example: after a crazy night out, the two protagonists (stepsiblings) go to the beach and, of course, he changes while joking with his friends about his sculpted abs and, just like that and with all the naturalness in the world, he shows his “ass” to his stepsister, who can’t help but look at it.
Now, you’ll tell me that it’s a tribute to Fellini… well, I don’t know, maybe it is. Or… it’s a film that always seeks to be easy and to please, with lots of partying and skin-deep hormones, an audience that has come to see exactly what you will see here.
And it is also not bad to give the public what they want.
Our opinion
A movie designed exclusively for a young audience that, without much cinematographic interest, threatens to change the lives of our youth forever and become something like the Teen Beat of other times.
