When I was given the film and read the title, I expected anything but what I got.

Three Argentinian astronauts aboard an old fashioned Italian-voiced spaceship who try to blow the moon out... Wow! But this is just the beginning, the prologue.

After we know their mission, the movie action starts, and also a lot of surrealistic gags involving character's relationship and their pasts. Anyway, besides it's sci-fi movie, you shouldn't forget it's also a comedy... with a very particular kind of humor.

I think it's very remarkable the Argentininian patriotic atmosphere, a parody of USA movies, where you can see the flag of Argentina everywhere and the astronauts as very keen soccer fans.

Moreover, I found pretty funny a scene I can't describe because it'd be a spoiler, but in that scene you can hear a very, very long string of typical Argentinian swearwords and profanities.

Spanish-language cinema across Spain and Latin America is united by its engagement with history, cultural identity, and social transformation. In Spain, films often balance artistic experimentation with popular genres while reflecting on memory, politics, and family. In Latin America, cinema has been deeply tied to questions of colonial legacy, resistance, and community resilience, ranging from intimate dramas to bold political allegories.
