Reception
Raúl Álvarez Pontiroli in Convicción wrote: "For a healthy and idiotic family."
GM in La Prensa expressed: "The narrative... if in some passages its rhythm declines, it is due to momentary lacks of imaginative irrigation in the original book."
Roberto Gil in Clarín said: "The impact of the gags diminishes... due to some interior scenes... but Moser's cleverness... and the director's professionalism... manage to overcome these weaknesses."
Manrupe and Portela write: "Another successful television program turned into a film below what is considered correct."
