Only Human

For a film that pads out such broad slapstick with toilet humor, obnoxious-child antics, and even cute-animal business, Only Human is surprisingly enjoyable, thanks to the filmmakers' relatively low-key, Pedro Almodóvar-style approach.

There are shades of early Almodóvar in this frantic comedy from English director Harari and his Spanish wife Pelegri, which casts aside the more serious aspects of its subject matter...

...Harari and Pelegri's clever verbal aesthetic saves the film.

Heartwarming and hilarious, this is a comedy of errors it would be a mistake to miss.

...a fitfully funny comedy revolving around a Spanish-Jewish family that's at least as dysfunctional as any since the one depicted in Portnoy's Complaint.
