	"Y Tu Mamá También (And Your Mother, Too)" - Salon
		If only Truffaut had lived to see Alfonso Cuarón's "Y Tu Mamá También (And Your Mother, Too)." Erotic freedom has remained such an elusive ideal for movies that fresh, frank treatments of sex still have the power to shock us, to exhilarate us.
		Watching "Y Tu Mamá También" is something like what it must have been like for readers in the '30s first encountering Henry Miller.
		Right up until its melancholy coda (captured by the casual elegy of Frank Zappa's "Watermelon in Easter Hay" on the soundtrack), "Y Tu Mamá También" is one of the most joyous movies I've ever seen, and one of the handful of great erotic films the movies have given us.

	Sunday May 19, 2002 - Y Tu Mama Tambien is intimate and emotional. Just what I like! (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-28)
		Y Tu Mama Tambien is acted so naturally by its stars (Gael Garcia Bernal, Diego Luna and Maribel Verdu) and directed so intimately that to be pulled away every five minutes for another observation by the narrator is off-putting.
		I believe that Y Tu Mama Tambien is a timeless story, and so well told, that it has the potential to become a pillar of an emerging Mexican New Wave.
		Although Y Tu is one of only two prominent Mexican films of recent memory (Amores Perros being the other), there are other signs that our neighbours to the south are growing into their cinematic skin.

		The producers of Y tu mamá también did their homework and made sure the film would pay the bills: Jorge Vergara (of Producciones Anhelo) aspired to reach wider audiences than the fairly small elite that had kept Mexican indie cinema alive in the last decade.
		Y tu mamá también is, then, a blurred and confusing reflection on the dialectics between the urban and the rural, the chilango
		Y tu mamá también is a merciless caricature of Mexico.

		Like these films, Y Tu Mamá También reflects back on youth with a great deal of heart, irony and a sense of the bigger picture — what is happening in the world at large.

	Y Tu Mama Tambien (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-28)
		Alfonso Cuarón's Y Tu Mamá También takes on the dimensions of a Truffaut film, or a hyper-sexualized Antoine Doniel film perhaps, one that fits between the child of The 400 Blows and the eighteen-year-old of Antoine et Colette.
		Not subtle, Y Tu Mamá También's aggressive bawdiness evokes Mexico's baked earthiness in a way that a more delicate poetry would be unable to carry off.
		Y Tu Mamá También outstays its welcome, ultimately, becoming increasingly arch and uncomfortable with itself, but it's a hallmark film in an increasingly important film industry and worth the look.

	Zap2it.com - Movie review - Y Tu Mama Tambien
		Alfonso Cuaron's "Y Tu Mama Tambien" is raunchy, smart, ebullient, melancholy, insightful, surprising, funny, frank and sexy as all get-out.
		For the rest of us, "Y Tu Mama" is exhilarating in the candor and humor with which it explores an intense male friendship, one set against the specific backdrop of 1990s Mexico at the tail end of the ruling party's uncontested reign.
		With "Y Tu Mama Tambien" (the title means "And Your Mother, Too," an insult in a game of one-upsmanship), Cuaron and his longtime cinematographer, Emmanuel Lubezki ("Ali"), are less concerned with the color palettes of the backgrounds than the naturalness of the settings and performances.

	THE CINECIST: Y Tu Mamá También
		Y Tu Mamá También is a TTSC inasmuch as two of the main characters, Tenoch and Julio, are teenage boys who spend most of their energy thinking about, talking about, looking for and sometimes even having sex.
		As it turns out, their girlfriends aren’t around for most of the picture, which begins as the girls leave to spend the summer in Europe.
		Happily, though, Y Tu Mamá doesn’t stop there.

		Leaving the poverty and grim reality of Amores Perros (the other hit Mexican movie of recent times, also starring Bernal) far behind, Y Tu Mama Tambien is set among the upper classes where two teenage friends, Julio and Tenoch, are left in a state of limbo when their girlfriends take a trip to Europe.
		Y Tu Mama Tambien's explicit scenes are more than mere titillation, just as the plot is more than a simple sex comedy.
		Y Tu Mama, Tambien ("And Your Mother, too") is the much-acclaimed comedy/drama by director Alphonso Cuaron.

		Wallace and Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit
		Directed and co-written by Alfonso Cuarón (Great Expectations, 1998), Y Tu Mamá También, is a wonderful piece of art in itself, displaying the colors and textures of Mexico using hand-held camera technique that makes us feel as if we're intimate participants in the journey of the three travelers.
		Y Tu Mama También receives a zero in the macho factor due to all the male nudity, despite the appearance of Maribel Verdu as the lovely Luisa.

	OFFOFFOFF film review Y TU MAMA TAMBIEN movie by Alfonso Cuaron with Maribel Verdu, Diego Luna, Gael Garcia Bernal, ...
		The rudely titled "Y Tu Mama Tambien" is not just the so-called Mexican "Porky's" — it's a funny, sexy exploration of intimacy in one of the world's biggest cities.
		"Y Tu Mama Tambien" caused some controversy in Mexico, where it was screened early this year.
		"Y Tu Mama Tambien" (translated from Spanish as "And Your Mother Too," but connoting "I screwed your mother too") is a funny, provocative, sexy journey into intimacy set in Mexico City, one of the biggest cities in the world.

		Y tu mamá también was even better than I'd been led to believe.

		Y Tu Mama Tambien (And Your Mother Too)...
		With Y Tu Mama Tambien (And Your Momma Too), Cuaron dramatically shifts gears and descends into the sweaty, lusty oeuvre of teen sexuality-a world where young men think of sex thirty hours a day.
		A Golden Globe nominee for Best Foreign Film and winner of a Best Screenplay Award at the Venice Film Festival, Y Tu Mama Tambien has been critically praised for its comic and touching glimpse at teenage boys' sexual angst.

		The enormous economic gap between the haves and have-nots in modern Mexico is a subtle undercurrent in Alfonso Cuaron's dark comedy Y Tu Mamá También.
		Y Tu Mamá También is the kind of lively, provocative, yet bittersweet movie that rarely gets made in North America anymore.
		Y Tu Mama Tambien could have easily become a Mexican version of American Pie or Road Trip, but this is much, much better.

	BBC - Films - review - Y Tu Mamá También (And Your Mother Too)
		Smashing all records at the box office in Mexico, "Y Tu Mamá También" (And Your Mother Too) is Mexican director Alfonso Cuarón's triumphant return to his roots after ten years in Hollywood.
		Even from the connotations of its title, "Y Tu Mamá También" is certainly not coy about the more explicit things in life.
		The unflinching opening sex scene and other tumbles throughout the film would court controversy were it not for the fact they are totally organic to the film as a whole.

	village voice > film > Y Tu Mama También; Back Against the Wall by J. Hoberman
		Neither provides much preparation for the confidently with-it Y Tu Mamá También (written by Cuarón's brother Carlos), a bildungsroman that doesn't unfold so much as noisily putt-putt along the dusty road from Mexico City to some Pacific paradise.
		Y Tu Mamá También should be no one's idea of politically correct entertainment, but however wish-fulfilling she may be, Luisa never fails to tweak the boys' nascent machismo.
		Funky and tender, Y Tu Mamá También is more thoughtful in redeeming a crass genre, evoking Jules and Jim as well as Beavis and Butt-head.

	Review of Y Tu Mama Tambien - Citysearch (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-28)
		"Y tu mama" competes handedly with other coming of age movies like "Porky's" and comes out on top with it's realism and ingenuity.
		An extremely sexy story, Y Tu Mama Tambien develops its characters so slowly and carefully you're surprised to find out towards the end that you really do care what happens to them.
		The realistic portrayals of teenage egotism, shallowness and insecurity were great, and the sense of impending sadness (reiterated by the recurrence of the machine-gunned police in the background) was a strong counterpoint to the humor and adventure of the story.

	Y Tu Mama Tambien
		Director Alfonso Cuaron ("The Little Princess") wanted to go back to his native Mexico to make a film, so he and his brother Carlos ("Love in the Time of Hysteria") wrote a distinctly un-Hollywood teen road movie that stops along the way to make observations on the state of their country.
		"Y Tu Mama Tambien" is a refreshingly natural look at two boys on the verge of becoming men who are helped over the threshold by a woman whose motto is 'Life is like the surf, so give yourself away like the sea.'
		"Y Tu Mama Tambien" wraps with a depressing coda which shows the former friends separated by their class and, ironically, their unifying experience.

	Y Tu Mamá También (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-28)
		Y Tu Mamá También opens in mid-grunt, as a young couple frantically makes love.
		She's actually after a jolt of their aimlessness and energy, a taste of the freedom they feel to waste their lives as they see fit.
		For any film to sustain both its comic energy and its raw sexual jolt for two hours is remarkable; that Y Tu Mamá También manages to do so while building to its achingly sad finale marks it as a major achievement.

		"Y Tu Mama Tambien" is described on its Web site as a "teen drama," which is like describing "Moulin Rouge" as a musical.
		The movie, whose title translates as "And Your Mama, Too," is another trumpet blast that there may be a New Mexican Cinema a-bornin'.
		It is true, as some critics have observed, that "Y Tu Mama" is one of those movies where "after that summer, nothing would ever be the same again." Yes, but it redefines "nothing."

	Y Tu Mamá También
		But, I felt these elements were there just because that is part of the life of the people at the center of the film rather than that they were driving force of the film in the way that they are in films like AMERICAN PIE.
		But the raunchy, sex, drinking, farting teen movie generally bores me. Y TU MAMA didn't bore me, but the framework (the fact that it was structured as a teen movie) kept me distanced from the characters.
		And, despite the fact that I did really like Y TU MAMA, there was something distancing me form the characters, and I'm not sure what that was.

		Y tu mamá también doesn't shy away from graphic depictions of sex, and there's plenty of nudity to tantalize anyone who gets tired reading the subtitles.
		Y tu mamá también depicts full frontal male and female nudity, simulated intercourse, fellatio, cunnilingus, and masturbation.

	y tu mamá también
		In the sex comedy Y Tu Mamá También, which dominated the Mexican box office last year, two teenage boys facing the dusk of their high-school lives find themselves on a road trip with an attractive older woman.
		The new movie is considerably franker and rougher-edged; the MPAA, in its infinitesimal wisdom, refused to let the film slide with an R rating, thus depriving the American Julios and Tenoches in the audience of seeing a truthful but warmly composed reflection of themselves.
		Many articles have bundled Y Tu Mamá También together with 2000's ferocious triptych of love, Amores Perros, partly because of the angle that there's something new and exciting going on in Latino cinema, partly because both films share an actor, the amiable and soulful Gael García Bernal.
