Super in Spanish

I watched this movie at midnight on Telemundo and it was just hilarious. First time for seeing it and my spanish is a bit rusty so everything seemed more exaggerated than it should be. I sure was loving it while watched it though and recommend it to anyone who just likes being entertained while not necessarily having to see the best movie ever.
