Everything about this cheery sit-com-type Jane Austen-meets Cinderella rom com is utterly predictable. Go to Full Review Jennie Punter Globe and Mail 02/11/2011

Ed R @JustcallmeER Sep 2 A cute family movie with a unique plot. See more M M @RT91803824 May 29 Loved it!! Don’t mind the reviews; it’s a delightful film!!! See more SkyRo P @TheMovieSearch May 13 "From Prada to Nada" is meant to be a comedic film centered around two Hispanic sisters navigating life—one pursuing a law degree and the other struggling to find her footing. However, I found the humor to be nonexistent throughout the entire movie. The performances felt exaggerated and overhyped, to the point where it became difficult to take the film seriously. The editing, cinematography, and lighting left much to be desired, while the direction had its moments with some interesting angles during the back-and-forth scenes. Yet, overall, the film felt disjointed and low-budget. Considering that this movie is available on Netflix, one would expect a certain level of quality. While not every Netflix original is a masterpiece, they typically offer something worthwhile. Seeing Wilmer Valderrama in this film was surprising, as it seemed beneath his talent—especially after his notable role in "That '70s Show." Ultimately, I cannot recommend this film. It felt poorly executed and, to be honest, quite dull. See more Roxana T @RT18575400 02/23/2025 Horrible pelicula ridícula y patética como todo lo que televisa produce, haciendo denotar como siempre su fama de poner actores blancos y nice sobre la comunidad mas real mexicana. Un asco de producción además qué hace televisa haciendo películas en estados unidos, si hace al debería hacer algo para represemtrnos bien y no con exageraciones nefastas.🤮😠 See more Michael Q @RT23637067 02/21/2025 I found the show and the characters to be wonderful. Wonderful contrast of life in Beverly Hills and then to East Los Angeles. Usually I do not watch RomComs, but this really grabbed me. So prepare some chips and salsa and enjoy! See more Diana L @RT09050343 09/05/2023 This adaptation is a little bit goofy, but I love it. Casting is delightful, and I love the two romantic pairings--Wilmer Valderrama as Bruna is especially wonderful. See more Read all reviews
