Pedro Almodóvar returns to his zany origins in this silly and slight bit of fun set on an airplane experiencing both technical issues and fabulousness! The less said beforehand about the various plot lines and gags, the better. Devotees of the Spanish auteur may be disappointed that I’m So Excited is so inconsequential and lacks the emotional core of his earlier comic melodramas, but I enjoyed it for what it is: a goofy, raunchy, party of a movie that succeeds in its simple goals of making you laugh and celebrating excess.
