The beauty is that Torres never forces these messages down your throat. The movie is too looney, too specific to be so obvious.

Torres has created a weird and special little film, one that reflects his particular tastes and curiosities.

Problemista is not just funny, however, it is also rather earnest and compassionate towards its characters.
