Esta noche, no

About This Movie

Esta noche, no is quite the curious piece from 2002, blending comedy with a touch of melancholy. We follow Luis Ortega, a Spanish guy caught up in illegal diamond trafficking, landing him in a Republic of China prison. The film’s atmosphere is a mix of humor and a sort of reflective sadness, especially as Luis tries to reconnect with his partner, Rita, who has moved on without him. The pacing can feel a bit erratic, but it adds to the charm—life doesn’t always flow smoothly, right? The performances are solid; they bring out the absurdities of the situations while grounding them in genuine emotion. The practical effects are minimal, focusing more on character interactions, which suits the tone well. Worth a watch if you enjoy comedies that delve into the complexities of life’s choices.

Unique perspective on life choices post-prison. · Blends comedy with deeper emotional themes. · Character-driven story with quirky humor.
