Elvis Mitchell
The New York Times

"Y Tu Mama Tambien" — the phrase translates from Spanish as "And your
mama, too" — is one of those Bildungsroman films that could begin or
end with the phrase, "And my life was never the same again." The
director, Alfonso Cuarón, works with a quicksilver fluidity, and the
movie is fast, funny, unafraid of sexuality and finally devastating.
The film, which takes place in Mexico, follows two hormonally consumed
teenage boys, Julio (Gael García Bernal) and Tenoch (Diego Luna),
whose infantile macho games seem more like baby steps when they meet
Luisa (Maribel Verdú), a sad-eyed young woman who is married to
Tenoch's older cousin. Tenoch and Julio come on to Luisa by promising
her a tour of the wondrous beach called Heaven's Mouth. By the end,
Julio and Tenoch are left with their eyes wide open. Those in the
audience will have seen something unforgettable, too.
