After his release from prison, bank robber Zequi sets off to recover the stolen money that was buried by his dizzy accomplice.

As the ex-con tries to lay down the law, he starts to realize that life in jail may have been easier than trying to deal with rebellious teens.

Excellent adaptation.
A waste of 90 minutes of my life
The acting in this movie is really good.
One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
I don't like movies with drama, but this movie has a very good mix of comedy and drama, a very honest movie. The movie is funny from the beginning, but during the climax it turn a little dramatic and sentimental, like a love story. It also teaches some fundamental ideas, and helps other under stand that you need yo make a future and don't and in a bad situation, that other people have a second chance to make a change in there life. The movie helps you to understand that you can change with the help of others.The movie is very good for schools to use for learning material and in the same time laugh a little.
Looks like I'm the lone wolf so far on this site as other reviewers liked this movie. However, I was hard pressed to find any laughs in this raunchy and farcical Mexican comedy, which, as others have noted, is filled with slapstick humor as well. Often, I just found the humor to be cringe worthy, and as it progressed I kept checking how much time was left before it was finally going to end.Omar Chaparro stars here as an ex-con, just released from prison after serving a 13 month sentence for bank robbery. However, he soon will discover a local school has built a gymnasium over where his stripper friend had hid his money (must be speedy construction workers). So naturally, he'll soon be hired as a substitute teacher at the school, where he'll become a "role model" for the wild and delinquent students there during the day, while he drills through the gym floor at night to try and get to his money.All in all, as is so often the case, just trying to be shocking and raunchy doesn't necessarily equal funny, and I could only find a couple of chuckles here in this film.
Mexican films are severely underrated, and they have proved to be quite good at achieving what they want.This of course is a remake and it is very well done, it is funny, it is heartfelt, well paced and you can see the effort that the people behind the film put into making it, and you can tell that Martha Higareda and Omar Chaparro have really good chemistry on screen.Romantic Comedies can be "by the numbers" when it comes to plots, twist and the cathartic final scene. But the important thing is not what we know about them or how they will end, what makes a Romantic Comedy a good movie is not how they end but how do they get there, and this movie makes it seem effortless.Highly, highly recommended.
Although this movie is a remake of a German film, I give this a 100%. We should be proud of this film, this film is entertaining and gives a good message to the youth now a days. I was not disappointed, it over passed my expectations. This is a perfect family movie, just watch out with the language, it's a bit explicit. The acting on this film was excellent, and don't get me wrong the cast was great!!! I've seen their movies before and have seen their acting, not disappointed. If you really put your mind into the film you will notice it will give you mixed emotions. I hope they make more movies like this in the future, I wouldn't mind watching them at all, by the way I saw this movie twice and I plan to go watch it again ha ha so please consider this film!!!!
