The Noble Family (2013)

I saw this movie through HBO. I found it funny, very good performed and certainly a review of what's real life for 99% of people. Writers did a good job trying to portray both contrasts between being rich and being not necessarily poor, but living life as it is.

The challenges the three children face to learn humbleness and the joy of gathering family back again are the most important topics here. I recommend this movie to make fun of rich people and their silliness by posing as "Americans wannabe" with their words in English and shallow life.

It's a movie full of creativeness, Mexican identity and for non-Latin Americans, I believe this movie will show how is "life in the tropics".

Fmovies: Nosotros los Nobles (We the Nobles) has broken the box office records in its native Mexico thanks to its easy and appealing subject matter. It is pretty much a straight forward "from riches to rags" story with some stereotypical characters and some funny moments. The film also has a family friendly message so I can see why it appealed to such a wide audience considering it made fun of the wealthy Mexicans. Unlike what many Americans might think, there are actually some wealthy Mexicans living the "Mexican dream," and they are presented in a rather comical form. The reason this film broke some records in Mexico is because it is really relatable and there are some pretty funny moments as the audience gets to make fun of these rich kids who seem to be clueless about the hardships of life. Nosotros Los Nobles was directed by Gary Alazraki (this was his first feature film) and he also co-wrote the screenplay along with Patricio Saiz and Adrian Zurita. I'm not very familiar with the cast involved in this film, but I think they pulled off some funny performances. This was way different from the Mexician films I was used to watching coming from Alfonso Cuaron, Alejandro Gonzalez Iñarritu, and Guillermo del Toro. Nosotros Los Nobles is a much lighter and more accessible film for audiences, but I still felt the film suffered from a week first and third act. There were some really funny moments during the second act, but the film opened really poorly when they introduced each character and then ended in a rather cartoonish manner as well.

Nosotros Los Nobles is a film that centers around a rich Mexican family known as the Nobles. German Noble (Gonzalo Vega) has built a financial empire for his family after years of hard work. His wife passed away years ago and he's had to raise their three kids on his own. Barbara (Karla Souza), Javi (Luis Gerardo Mendez), and Cha (Juan Pablo Gil) are not really good at anything except spending their father's money. They are really spoiled and live a life of excess. Barbara's boyfriend, Peter (Carlos Gascon), asks German for his daughter's hand, but he doesn't approve of their relation because Peter doesn't have a job and the couple simply want to live off his money. Tired of his children's behavior, German decides to pull off a charade and tells them that they are broken. He believes this way his children will be forced to find jobs and try to survive in the real world under harsh conditions. Cha finds a job at a local bank, while Javi and Barbara get jobs thanks to their maid's son, Lucho (Ianis Guerrero). Having no work experience whatsoever, the three kids will find it difficult to adapt to this new lifestyle, but German is sure this will teach them a lesson or two about life.

Barbara, Javi, and Cha all play the stereotypical spoiled kids which adds to the overall comedy, but there really isn't much to their characters. Cha is probably the weakest link here as his story was completely uninspired. At least Barbara and Javi had some substance and side stories to make them a bit more interesting. Peter is the typical villain here who wants to blackmail his future father-in-law and pressure his girlfriend into marrying him so he can enjoy the family's wealth. I found some of the jokes pretty funny, but there were plenty of cheesy moments as well. The movie also is very predictable and despite having some heartfelt moments I felt this was just another generic comedy about a story we've seen played out before. Overall it teache

Good Mexican movies are back, and "Nosotros Los Nobles" is a great example of it. Mexicans laugh about ourselves and the daily things that happen in this exotic and dazzling chaotic Country. The director could mix all of those aspects. That is why I recommend it. My favorite actor is "Javi Noble", a young mind full of ideas to entrepreneur. However, he has a bad education in business. His father, Germán Noble, tries to teach him, but it was until Javi met the tacky bus driver when he realized how to find the best startup. That made me laugh a lot because I am an entrepreneur too! The language in the movie is interesting too, including cocky and tacky informal phrases. I have to say that both of them include the same bad words, so funny. So, if you want to learn to speak "mexican", watch this movie.

The Noble Family fmovies. "Nosotros Los Nobles" has broken strings on the traditional way of making Mexican movies, which usually don't make money on the box office. The story, with a really attractive script, at least for Mexican people, catches the viewer during the whole movie as it exemplifies and makes the attitudes and situations of the characters very identifiable to the high class of the Mexican society. I think it is a movie that puts the example and shows that in México anyone can do quality films that sell on the box office. By far, it is the must successful box office film on the history of Mexican Films, and it can be easily justifiable with an acting that makes the people laugh without being to close to being an acting for TV or novels. It is really well directed and I admire the way that Gary adapted the script, also produced by Leonardo Zimbrón who can make a good team. i also liked the way they shot in 16mm in a stage where everyone is using digital cameras. Here is the prove that there can be Mexican films done with quality and that can make the finances of the industry work.

For a lot of years, Mexican movies always have a high dose of violence, drugs, alcohol, sex, and cursing.

This movie is a great example that Mexican movies can be excellent without all that crap, the movie is very funny, you will enjoy it from the beginning to the end, if you are Mexican you'll feel identified with a lot of stuff in the movie, if you are not you will still enjoy it a lot and learn a few things about Mexican society.

The Actors and the production made an awesome job. Completely recommended. Thanks for reading this review, Im just typing this because this thing won't let me post the review if it doesn't contain 10 lines :) Thanks

I got this movie after reading all these great reviews online. The script is good, and the actors are very credible in their roles. The movie did succeed in making us laugh --particularly in the 1st half. As the story unfolds, however, it looses credibility. I just watched the 2nd half waiting for the story to come to a close, as the conversion of those youngsters it portrays lost any credibility to my eyes. In sum, I found this to be an effective comedy to watch on TV, not the great movie that others reviewed.
