Javier is a doctor that lives with her girlfriend, Maria. They have decided to go living to the US in order to have a better life. Maria travels before to make contacts and, the day that Javier is going to go (after selling his house, leaving his job...) she calls him to tell him that she has been with another man and needs to think what to do. Without job, girlfriend nor house, Javier fells in a great depression. He buys a little dog and results to be a Great Danish...When things cannot be worse, he meets Julia and love starts between them. Unluckily, a few days later, Maria call to tell him that she is going to return with him, which will push him into a very hard situation. The story, though complicated, seems interesting, but the result is quite bad. The movie tries to be a different romantic comedy with a very great drops of drama, and the problem is that the movie becomes nothing: it is not a comedy, it is not a drama and it is not a mix of both; the mixture is not well done. In addition, Diego Peretti (who plays the main character)has not a great day, his acting is not very convincing and the fact that the character is quite repulsive makes things worse. Moreover, the movie spends two hours to tell us a story that could be told in a hour and a half so it has a light lack of rhythm. On the other hand, the rest of the actors are not bad and the story is well built and logic. I've been a little disappointed with this film, because I expected something better. The plot is interesting, but the result could have been better.

Well for the actors and the address
... View MoreNO SOS VOS, SOY YO (It's not you, it's me) is about an Javier and Maria, middle age Argentinean couple, living in a dangerous monotony, that decide to move to USA looking for better opportunities. Maria travels first, and few weeks later, announces Javier (her husband) that she had met somebody. The matrimony is over, and so is Javier's life. The movie comically (but sometimes very sour) documents his actions trying to overcome his depression about his failure in life, future and relationship.The movie stands above almost every recent (failed) love history recently in cinema; mostly because it does a great effort to avoid common places and situations. Dialogs and situations are very realistic but funny. Sadly, many of the best jokes will be very difficult to understand without knowledge of the Argentinean Spanish. Ultimately, are the writers (one of them is the only good woman in the movie) who give up and go for the easy way out; probably to satisfy most of the public.However, the main problem with the story is the main character. Diego Peretti is a very good actor (as is Soledad Villasmil, as the cheating wife), but his character is too real for his own good. It is unpleasant and very very difficult to like; making very difficult to feel any kind of sympathy for a person that you can bear even on the screen.Overall, the movie is not bad at all. It is not an easy comedy but a light and finally optimistic drama.
... View MoreYetserday I went to the movies to see this one and I have to admit it surprised me...I was expecting a very simple, nice but kind of embarrassing plot, with the same old Argentinian jokes and this was much more than that...Its about a newlywed couple that has some problems and the husband (really well played by Diego Peretti) gets into deep depression and struggles to move on. The very appearance of Cecilia Dopazo in the story announces that there'll be a love conflict, but in the end, everything turns out to be a happy ending (tough I'm still not saying which lady gets the stud)...There are very funny jokes not only in the dialog, that keeps realistic the whole time, but also some situations where you don't know whether to feel sorry for him or for the people around him To say its more of a comedy that a romantic film is enough If you're expecting too much it may fulfill your expectations, if you are not expecting too much it will surprise you in the best way Simple script, realistic but funny situations and characters you'll definitely remember weeks after watching this... "No sos vos, soy yo" is another Argentinian success
