Elvira, Sol, and Jimena -- named for women in the life of El Cid -- are so spoiled and blind to their mother's happiness that they're often thoroughly unpleasant. Go to Full Review San Francisco Chronicle 08/13/2004
2/4
A sometimes cloying mix of screwball comedy and drama. Go to Full Review Michael O'Sullivan Washington Post 07/09/2004
Less side-splitting than a sad reminder of the past. Go to Full Review Rob Thomas Capital Times (Madison, WI) 10/29/2004
3/4
It's a warm, sunny film that should remind viewers favorably of an early Aldomovar film, in which strong, beautiful, but slightly nutty women carry the day. Go to Full Review Jon Popick Planet S Magazine 10/19/2004
Sounds like a bad Almodvarian television sitcom pilot. Go to Full Review Peter Canavese Groucho Reviews 08/19/2004
0/4
A graceless film about hateful people...apart from some Prague scenery in the last act, My Mother Likes Women is thoroughly ugly. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

07/10/2013 I'm surprised that this didn't receive more appreciation from the users. Here we have an elderly mom who has fallen in love with a woman rather than another man...and boy do her daughters react. I thought it was fascinating to see the diverse reactions and the actors clearly having fun exploring their characters. See more 08/15/2012 L'actrice qui joue Elvira est exceptionnelle ^^. See more 08/07/2012 a merry lil carnival, very 'popcorn fluff'. the bad dubbing and subs that didn't sync really took a lotta viewing pleasure outta this fun, lite-hearted flick. there were some hilarious moments but this was one of 'em no-great-loss-if-you-miss-it types. See more 09/06/2011 muy buena! mejor de lo que pensaba, demás muy divertida! See more 04/11/2010 Guardatevi sto film perchè è geniale! See more 03/14/2010 This wasn't what I expected, but is a touching story of a family and others coming to terms with what some feel is a difficult situation. See more Read all reviews
