It was a nonsense but entertaining movie. With a fast paced rhythm. It was funny for an hour and 15 minutes, but the last 15 minutes of the movie were unbearable. Typical mexican movie full of bad words (That's 1 reason it's funny).

It's a bad movie, but entertaining in some times, not working properly, covering subjects that are not fun like an exorcism and one that exorcises that at no time is laughable, the "black comedy" presented during the film does not cause anything to laugh in most of the movie, and some pieces if. The production and effects do not favor anything nor the "hold" trying to make.
