Amusing but mediocre comedy with a twisted intrigue about a pair of botcher friends who undertake a complex investigation to solve killings . Duo of funny protagonists, Jose Luis Lopez Vazquez, Juanjo Menendez give sympathetic interpretations. Fun support cast is frankly well, plenty of familiar faces with lot of beautiful actresses as Teresa Gimpera, Mara Cruz, Mary Francis or Paca Gabaldon, Rosanna Yanni . And several secondary actors in brief roles as Antonio Pica, Beni Deus, Luis Morris, Jesus Guzman, Erasmo Pascual, Luis Barboo, Jose Riesgo, Xan Das Bolas and actresses as Margot Cottens , Julia Caba Alba.
It contains a colorful and evocative cinematography in Eastmancolor by Miguel Fernandez Mila, being shot in Madrid and Torremolinos, Marbella, Andalucia . As well as a catching musical score by Jose Torregrosa, including diverting songs, as Cuidado con las señoras performed by the band Los Gritos and composed by Augusto Alguero . The motion picture written by Federico de Urrutia and Manuel Sebares, was regularly directed Julio Buchs.

Dramas as Encrucijada para una monja, Trompetas del Apocalipsis. Paella westerns as Mestizo, Los desesperados, El hombre que mato Billy the Kid. And comedies as El apartamento de la tentacion, Una señora llamada Andres and Cuidado con las señoras .Rating 4 out of 10. Regular Spanish comedy with no much sense.
