A Mexico's Social chritic
17 November 2004
There's no doubt this is one of the funniest Mexican films ever!

This movie shows the way confusions can hit a whole small town in Mexico, which is lead and owned by a typical Mexican cacique, who does almost anything he desires until he finds out an inspector will arrive to this town by surprise and on the other hand, Calzonzin, a Mexican Indian escapes from people who tries to kill him and matches to the description Don Perpetuo has for the Inspectro and confuses Calzonzin with the Inspector.

This is just the beginning of a whole bunch of situations, all are a lot of fun, where Don Perpetuo is trying to hide away from Calzonzin, Inspector all the corruption and irregularities of his dirty government.

I always laugh out loud with Don perpetuo's parrot "pendejo!" shout every time anyone hits his cage with their head.

El show de los Polivoces (1960–1976)
These guys were the best of the best!
17 November 2004
Los Polivoces are still remembered because of many memorial characters which were based on true people, such as Mostachon (despotic and abusive boss) and El Wash n' Wear (typical low class mediocre worker), Gordolfo Gelatino and Doña Naborita (charaters based on Mexican actor and hunk Mauricio Garces and his mom), Gral. Agallon Mafafas and Juanito Garrison (Agallon was based on Pedro Armendariz's performance as Pancho Villa and both played roles as boy scout - soldiers, whose Agallon had to report to The Pentagon because on those days you were not supposed to make fun at the Mexican Army, if they said on those days they were soldiers, they could probably been arrested).

Other memorial characters were Los Hermanos Lelos, about those two brothers, their creator, Mauricio Kleif was based on a couple of brothers, who were really stupid, and that's how the Hermanos Lelos were born.

This show was one of a kind!

Caveman (1981)
10/10
Ringo Starr, so funny!
17 November 2004
An excellent movie I always enjoy to watch, one of my favorites of all times.

Ringo Starr excellent as Atouk!

The dinosaurs also funny, I always laugh out loud when I see them, absolutely silly!

Although the actors don't speak English (except the Asian guy!), their caveman language is so real and understandable, they way they explain everything, so funny and easy to understand for everyone!.

This movie is one of a kind!

I hope everybody could enjoy this movie as much as I do every time I have the chance to watch it.

If you want to have moments of fun, this is a must-have in your collection.
