Wonderful ensemble comedy!
pv6122 September 2011
Despedida de soltera is one of those movies we used to watch on TV and is always nice to watch from time to time. My fondest memory was a song that Leonorilda Ochoa performs at her TV show while the rest of the girls watch at home. In this movie are Alicia Bonet (the bride), and her friends: Regina Torné (the feminist), Fanny Cano (the bombshell), Maricruz Olivier (the smart), Sonia Infante (the romantic) and the crazy in the TV show, Leonorilda, who, besides of being the most outrageously funny was the impractical joker, and the most tasteless one was to make the bride believe, a few days before the wedding, that her husband-to-be has kids with another woman. The comedy is superb!

A brilliant debut by Lucy Vega
mikemoonglow11 October 2005
Lucy Vega has never looked lovelier as the most unwanted of bachelorette party guests. Her shenanigans certainly brought the party to a screeching halt. Although she is able to maintain her disguise briefly, when the tide finally turns, she gets the come uppance she is due! She and Laura will certainly not try that again!!

When the lovely Lucy Vega first graces the screen (straight off of her win as Miss Five Boros), wrapped in her demure arms is what appears to be a bundle of joy. However, the package of joy is far from joyous for the future Mrs. Bernardo, who is thrown into a serious emotional whirlwind, thanks to the demented prankster Laura. Will the wedding go on as planned, or will Bernardo be slapped with a paternity suit, and a subsequent child support application?

The rest of the cast supporting Miss Vega is wonderful as well, although make no mistake, this movie belongs to Miss Vega. I am only sorry that Miss Vega's star, although it shined brightly, shined far too briefly.
