The professional reviewers must be nuts. "Kika"is wildly funny with lots of typically Almodovar twists, gorgeously acted and stunningly filmed. I have seen most of his films, and each is so different that it's hard to compare them, but this is right at the top along with "Talk to Me", "Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown", and one or two others. I just love it. Were the Oscars not enormously influenced by Hollywood money this would have won best film, actor, actress, and cinematography.
