Critics consensus

“Cantinflas focuses on the idol instead of the man and in spite of Óscar Janeada's padrísimo performance, this biopic feels like the GIF of what could've been a contender.”

To the uninitiated, such as myself, apart from the familiar landmarks of a career's trajectory, a lot of what is going on is too lightly sketched.

Cantinflas wears viewers down with earnest hero worship.

A big disappointment, a disjointed mess that tries to create a point-counterpoint narrative with these two savvy showmen, which inevitably tips the scales in favoring one of them.

RTEl Pais (Spain)Apr 20, 2016

A rancid narrative, with a simple sketch of the figure of a great popular film comedian. [Full review in Spanish]
