- Synopsis:
- Julio and Tenoch are typical over-sexed and under-occupied teenagers. During a festive afternoon with their families they meet Luisa, a twenty eight year old Spaniard, and flirt with her with all the style and grace seventeen year old boys are known for. As a joke, they invite her to accompany them on a road trip to a beach called Boca Del Cielo, neglecting to mention that they wouldn't know where to find it, even if it did actually exist. To their astonishment, she accepts.

not very good. - And Your Mother Too review by CP Customer
I felt like I had completely wasted my time watching this film as the plot went nowhere. This is classed as a comedy film, but personally there was only one part which made me smile. On the plus side, the mexican scenery is beautiful.

Funny, Filthy and Unexpectedly Sad - And Your Mother Too review by griggs
I could have sworn I’d seen this at the Tyneside and owned it on disc. Wrong on both counts. At least the shelf now tells the truth.
Two horny seventeen-year-olds invent a beach to impress an older woman, and Alfonso Cuarón turns their stupid lie into a funny, filthy and unexpectedly sad road trip. Tenoch and Julio’s ideas about sex and women are grim, and the pair take a while to become bearable. Their swagger is armour made from bad advice. Gael García Bernal and Diego Luna give them enough warmth and wobble that I cared when their friendship blew a tyre.
Cuarón’s camera catches roadblocks, protests and villages the boys drive past. Then the narrator barges in with facts they miss. He can be a bit of a lecturer, though his interruptions often land like a bucket of cold water.
Maribel Verdú is the reason it all works. Luisa is sharp and sexy, and the only grown-up in the car.
The boys set off looking for sex and accidentally find adulthood.
