A lighthearted animated film about a rooster and his dreams, set in a Mexican ranch full of funny characters, this Mexican movie is very different from a Pixar classic, but the animation is quite good, the storyline is simple and full of references to other classic movies like Rocky, The Godfather, The Karate Kid, I found some parts real funny and there are a couple of musicals, we have seen the same story many other times but I guess the Mexican approach is what makes it different, the voices of the characters are made by very recognizable Mexican actors for the Spanish version, its good for both young and their parents, just don't expect a "Finding Nemo" level.
In the description you will see this movie has strong sexual context and that is true. Although I thought this was a funny and very entertaining movie, I would have enjoyed it more had my 13yr old not been with me, why?
Un Gallo con Muchos Huevos ("a rooster with many eggs") opened in three-hundred and ninety-five theaters over the 2015 Labor Day weekend, making it the largest theater-count for a Mexican-animated film in America. If this film winds up experiencing a strong opening weekend, say $3 - 5 million or more, it could be a turning point for Spanish cinema in America.
"What came first, the chicken or the egg?" It's a question as old as well, chickens and eggs – and questions.
Obviously is intended for Spanish speaking markets (and specially Mexican, since it has a lot of double meaning expressions). I thoroughly enjoyed it, and once the DVD/BlueRay is out, I'll get it.
