In my poor opinion, "Gordos" its a film that conceive that the problem in many times it is not the obesity of the people if not other problems very hard as the infidelity, fear of having a children, the toxic relationship of two brothers, etc.Those problems, also, are problems very serious of the society. Even, those problems are very serious than the obesity.In this film, Daniel Sánchez Arévalo get to transmit this item in many differents lifes where everyone intersect in the weekly meeting. It is a good way to mix the comedy and the drama.

I don't get the need that some Spanish films have to show people having sex in any circumstances, people in a bathroom or things like that. I'm not a puritan at all and I'm not making a point about. I believe that this movie is not about fat people or not, it's about people with guiltiness and prejudices about their sexual life.Sometimes I have the conviction that some Spanish directors are in their preadolescence age so they take any subject and make in pass through the "sex filter" . They need to show people having sex because...I don't know.The movie itself it's OK, acting work it's just magnificent but I'm still believe that the title doesn't match what the director wanted to show. In fact I don't really know yet what the director wanted to show. I have the impression that he made a script which basically was "ok guys, let's show how different average people reacts in different circumstances and reflect that in they sexual life. We will use as an alibi fatness, but in fact it will be a movie about the sexual life of normal people".Forgettable.

This film was absolutely excellent! The characters were so relate-able -not just their struggles with appearance and weight, but also with elements of their personal lives. Although the genre is comedy/drama, I found it to be much more of a drama, with some funny moments that will probably make you smile rather than laugh.Throughout the film each of the character's stories are gone through in detail and the viewer is given an intimate insight into their personalities - somewhat clichéd but, overall, very entertaining.If at first you don't get into it, make sure you persevere, as the ending is one of the saddest and most beautiful endings I've seen.

2009 was a really bad year for Spanish movies, till the very end of the year din't arrived any good title to our cinemas. Then suddenly arrived Rec 2, Agora, Celda 211... some great movies than saved the year. But between all that great movies was a very nice title than passed walking on tiptoes... not great promotions, not great supports from celebrities or TV channels... just a great idea, a great director, a nice script and a solvent actors.This movie is not only about some fat guys than try to get his nice weigh, is about humanity, about how everyone try to get his way, about how people can avoid the obstacles and look to the future. It is about everyone, every guy/girl takes a different perspective of the problems... and much more. But It is not everything, is a great comedy. Maybe you will not burst out laughing, but you will show a great smile all the time, and maybe some laugh. The very nice part of this movie is than don't mind how sad is a that moment, always show a happy face of everything.Is some more positive points in this movie, the dialog are realistic, fun and VERY intelligent. All the characters are perfectly defined, but maybe the gay guy fails cause his stranger relationship with his best friend wife. Every actor does a great work, no one looks like over-acted or trying to remember his dialog just like the most of the Spanish movie. Seem than Daniel Sánchez is really a very solvent director, and was not only lucky his Azul Oscuro Casi Negro the previous movie.I really want to recommended this movie for everyone than are looking for take a nice time with a intelligent movie.
