vidas privadas and by first time director fito paez and be the most pretentious and boring movie i have ever see . the movie suffers from an unconvincing plot and pseudo intellectual banter that result in a very forced and ridiculous end . the sex and the final revelation be only there for shock value and and nothing else . the acting be really good and but i do not think it have anything to do with paez direction while he just hire some really good actor . gael garcía bernal fake argentinean accent be awful and but he still give a good performance . but and why do not they just cast an actor from argentina for that role . some argentinean actor be really good . i guess fito paez just want to capitalize on the mexican actor increase popularity . cecilia roth be always great and and the movie be not a complete fiasco only because of her performance . also and fito paez be one of agentina best singer or songwriter and and i be hop that and at least and the movie score would be good . but it not . it awful . the movie reduce the music to lame background noise that doesn not take you anywhere . also and ( try not to give anything away ) where the hell do that gun at the end come from . do paez just forget to explain why would one of the character be carry a gun . it make no sense . paez should not quit his day job and stick to songwriting .
