I like the magic realist elements of the film and the way they're depicted, and some of the stylistic flourishes (direct addresses to the camera, fantasy sequences) are especially effective. 5/
I do believe that, at times, the film was hampered by its voice-over which slows down the narrative and hits us over the head with the theme. Still, it's a thoroughly enjoyable film. (Watched on Hulu) 6/6
