Will Ferrell's new comedy is in Spanish starring two famous Mexican actors, Diego Luna, and Gael Garcia Bernal.

It will be interesting to see how the movie does. Will Ferrell admits he has no knowledge of Spanish. He can fake it pretty well, it seems. The distributor -- a small Hispanic-American concern -- is releasing it on 400 screens initially. Seems to be a parody of Mexican telenovellas and "B"-movies. Marketing seems to be hitting its mark, and Luna and Garcia are credible actors by any measure.

Without knowing about this thread at the time, I wrote a review of the movie already.
Paco, I think you'd also appreciate the line-up of maids they have at the Casa. Why don't my housekeepers every look like that?
