This leads of course to extraordinary complications at the hotel , but also to insight in the problems and feelings of each other.
This agreeable picture concerns a twisted changing caused by a collision accident at a swimming pool , as both protagonists , Juan : Canto and Belinda : Marcos , both deliver chemical enough by exchanging bodies, but things go awry when they're attracted to one another . There are some nice jokes in the film and the cast , playing eccentric characters , make a cosy fit . ¨Put a Man in Your Life (1996)¨ follows the style to previous ¨Like Father Like Son (1987)¨ by Rod Daniel in which a father and his child have a mysterious potion switching the personalities of a buttoned up doctor and his laid back son, both of them played by Dudley Moore and Fred Savage. This interesting 1996 film packs colorful a images , strange situations , swift frames , twists and turns ; but it also contains some touches of humor and irony . It takes a simple concept , a spectacular exchange , in which two starring forming an attractive and fun couple while both of whom attempting to solve this fantastic stuation . There is a lot of entertainment and amusement, and jokes go too fast , with a lot of enjoyable gags. Toni Canto gives a sympathetic acting as an aggressive and loud-mouthed football trainer while Cristina Marcos is a likeable singer who attempts to marry her boyfriend at whatever cost , but they agree to co-operate and continue in their new bodies attempting to solve this twisted incident . This is a dual show, as Toni Canto and Cristina Marcos give a real recital , both of them sing , dance , make acrobatics , complete transformations, and pull strange faces and gestures. The movie results to be a grand vehicle of these sympathetic actors, they are true showmen providing a true spectacle of comical interpretation . Both of whom are assisted by a fine plethora of familiar faces , outstanding Pere Ponce as Belinda's stiff boyfriend and Anabel Alonso as a fortune teller , as well as minor but nice interpretations from Javier Cámara, Liberto Rabal , Carmen Balagué, Mercedes Resino and the veetrans Pilar Velazquez and Raul Sender.
It contains a catching musical score along with lively songs , such as : Una eternidad by José Manuel Pagán performed by Cristina Marcos and Toni Cantó , Extraterrestres by José Manuel Pagán performed by Cristina Marcos , Los chicos con las chicas b y Manolo Díaz Lyrics by Manolo Díaz , Sin problemas performed by Niagara Girls and Juan Cebra by José Manuel Pagán . The motion picture was well directed by Eva Lesmes . She is a fine director and writer who has got some successes . Eva Lesmes was born in Gijón, Asturias , location where she usually shoots her films . She is a director and writer, especially for TV , known for ¨Maitena: Estados Alterados¨ (2008), ¨A las Once en Casa¨ (1998) , ¨El Comisario¨ , ¨Casa De Los Lios¨ (1997) , ¨El Palo¨ (2001) , Ellas y el sexo débil (2006) . Being his best pictures , two comedies titled : ¨El Palo¨ and ¨Pon Un Hombre En Tu Vida¨ (1996) . It is a film worth watching and, in turn, is really amusing and truly a hoot to watch . It is probably one of the best satisfying comedian efforts to come out of Spain in the early nineties . Rating : 7/10. Better than average.
