The film never recovers from the bland dive into the making the trip hell for our tourists in the middle of a desert.
Even the lovable characters and Gonzaga Manso’s astounding direction of photography doesn’t help to redeem the soulless road trip.
After a while, it becomes a chore to sit through the rest of the film. 4L (4 Latas) could have been a lot better if the film invested more time on interpersonal dynamics of the key players than erratically meander to go nowhere.

So I just binged Money Heist and I’ve been crushing hard on Hovik. This was a so-so film, but he spends like 80% of it in his boxers, so that made me happy.
Road movie que transmite mucho buen rollo. El drama lo fuerzan demasiado, pero la química entre los actores, la fotografía y la historia te van a mantener entretenido y a gusto durante un buen rato.
Jean Reno leads a game cast in this pleasant but forgettable comedy road movie
Terra Filma Challenge - Desert
Decided to do a film challenge, watching a film set in a different type of landscape until I run out of types on the wiki page.
This was a solid start! It was nice to see Hovik Keuchkerian (Money Heist) again! The desert was almost like a character in this movie, right down to the final line:
"The desert is like the beach, but without the girls in bikinis or beach bars... And the water a fucking million miles away..."
Entretenida pero previsible.
ahora quiero hacer un viaje por el desierto del sáhara con mis colegas (sin morirme por deshidratación claro)
I love Jean Reno and will watch him in anything. He gets my one star just because I love him.
I have no idea why this film was financed, made, or released.
A not so eventful road movie that has gorgeous shots of the Sahara. It’s hard to have sympathy for these Europeans who willingly do something as idiotic as drive through the desert with little experience or supplies and proceed to nearly die. What’s worse is the movie doesn’t earn killing its only black main character. The motivations are pretty stock and the colonizer spirit is off putting. Let’s just say The Darjeeling Limited does this better.
A great movie, lots of performative moments and great characters, good story. Well executed.
Trata de ser como little miss sunshine, de tener ese vehículo hilarantemente averiado, de fortalecer los lazos de los personajes con experiencias disparatadas que evidencian la absurdez de la vida y, en general, trata de generar momentos icónicos; la cagada es que ese es su único objetivo. Esta película lo único que quiere es que sus elementos se vuelvan icónicos, pero no sabe que para que un símbolo, una imagen se vuelva memorable, esta debe ser construida de modo tal que se le otorgue un peso y significado tan grande que nadie será realmente capaz de ignorar su existencia pues ha crecido dentro del espectador, se ha instalado y no planea retirarse.
