Reception
In a wholly negative review, Manuel J. Lombardo of Diario de Sevilla assessed Coartadas as a "sclerotic romantic comedy" "who thinks it is funny and cheeky without actually being so".[8]
Sergio F. Pinilla of Cinemanía rated the film 2½ out of 5 stars, writing that the blend of buddy movie and romantic comedy features a "gaudy and frivolous" humour.[4]
