“This hilarious as well as wild picture is loaded with noisy action , irony , slapdash , comedy with tongue-in-cheek , bad taste jokes , rapid flash thrilling choreography , funny situations and with a distinctly Spanish sense of humor . The story of a wealthy man (Pedro Maria Sanchez) , his daughter Paula (Úrsula Corbero) , her boyfriend David (Quim Gutiérrez) goes wrong when the rich person suffers a stroke and David along with his colleague Mudo (Julian Villagrán) attempt to hide the body . Meanwhile , three partners Edu (Ernesto Altero) , his girlfriend (Clara Lago) and Gaby (Enrico Vecchi) attempt to kidnap a manager with unexpected consequences . This is the starting point of a chase carried out by the four guys along with a mad lawyer ; all of them got themselves into a series of unfortunate twists and turns to finally answer the question ; Who killed Bambi? . Everything that you can imagine is far from the stupid things that may happen to these guys . As they get mix in wild party , kidnapping , murders , nutty events and many other things ; nothing more than a series of coincidences and twists of fate . Nothing should be taken at face-value; nothing should be taken seriously . u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThis is a fast crazy movie with lot of fun situations , antics , bemusement and with a bunch of very hilarious roles . u0026quot;? Quien Mato a Bambi ¿u0026quot; is a savage hybrid among the best u0026quot;Alex De la Iglesiau0026quot;, ¨Airbagu0026#39;s Juanma Bajo Ulloa¨ and films about ¨wild parties¨ , topped with a little bit of original touches here and there ; including frenetic car pursuits . Sitting in a strange middle ground between the completely absurd and the stylishly cool, this one is one of a hundred and one movies to try and capture the vibe of Americau0026#39;s Tarantino or Spainu0026#39;s Alex De La Iglesia. It turns out to be pleasantly fun that offers no intellectual stimulus whatsoever ; an exercise in pure amusement in which entertainment and fun are guaranteed . The characters are quite odd , grotesque and weird and the film races on at incredible speed . Higlights of this film include spectacular car crashes , and an impressive irruption of an automobile at a football camp . On the surface, ¿Quién mató a Bambi? doesnu0026#39;t get much wrong , it looks okay, the comedy misunderstandings pile up in a reasonably amusing fashion and the performance is passable . Some violence , tortures , finger-slitting , and profanities crop up often enough to help the film zip along throughout the half an hour runtime .There are also some funny cameos, some appear only for a minute such as Jose Angel Egido , Pedro Mari Sánchez , Carmina Barrios and Futbolista Andrés Iniesta at a funny special appearance . u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eColorful and appropriate cinematography by Alex Catalan , a good cameraman who has photographed a lot of successful films such as ¨Even the rain¨ , ¨Grupo 7¨, ¨Habitacion En Roma¨ , ¨Cabeza De Perro¨ and ¨Voz Dormida¨. The motion picture was written , produced , directed and musicalized by Santi Amodeo . Santi directs with a bit of flair here and there but not enough to raise up the material . This is his last film , he had previously directed ¨El Factor Pilgrim¨ , ¨Astronautas¨ and ¨Cabeza De Perro¨ at his best . ? Quien mató a Bambi ¿ will pass the time, and Iu0026#39;m sure that one or two people may grow to love it, but itu0026#39;s one that Iu0026#39;ll never seek out to re-watch again .”
