With such a cast and the storyline I heard about, I expected this to be fun. As I watched the film I kept thinking, is this all there is? It wasn't going anywhere. Well, at least there's the beautiful Blanca Suarez, who has a nice looking boyfriend. That didn't matter since he didn't know how to kiss. There were a few things that were cute, however the film was a big disappointment.

If you want to watch a good movie you could definitely find something better. I watched it merely as an exercise to "practice" Spanish. The movie is visually pleasing, has a great cast and the story is rather 'meh' but easy to follow and interesting enough to watch if you're learning Spanish. If you're looking for something else, like, to have a laugh, to be moved or to actually fell any emotion at all - give it a pass.

Sorry, I couldn't resist the pun. The English overdubs here are attrocious. However, the actresses playing the four sisters are fantastic. And extremely beautiful.

Maxi Iglesias (Alejandro) diction, was a disgrace!!! Can't be understood, his horrendous abrupt Spanish, common in Spanish actors between the ages of thirteen and forty. The female actresses (including Marisa Paredes) who have enough proof that they can act, look here like plasticine, soft, hollow bodies meaning NOTHING. And then the obsession about the word "follar" (to fu*"*k), overly used: it seems that Spaniards in general are insecure beigns, feeling kind of inferior and they can only assert their value by swearing: how limiting, what a lack of artistic value. Awful movie, what a waste!

Typical Spanish soap opera type chick flick.Not bad if you are used to these type of movie.Definitely not an action movie.And that's ok.Keep moving if action is what you are looking for action.

"Despite everything"is a light comedy about 4 sisters and their search for their respective fathers. This film is far from being memorable or original, but it does the trick. It is entertaining, so long as you don't expect anything profound. It does have a few good moments here and there, but it's overall pretty average. The best thing in my opinion is the performance of the leading actresses, who do a nice job, except for Amaya Salamanca, who I've always found too artificial, like she's trying too hard, but it might be just me. All in all, just watchable.

The Spaniards are known for producing below standard comedies, but this one takes the cake. It is long winded and totally predictable. This movie also dances with stereotyping minorities and the laughs are non existent.
