Eight years ago the director of this film, Simon Bross, suffered from cancer during this difficult time in his personal life, he thought that one of the things you would like to make a movie. Come long after the writer Ernesto Anaya and things begin to become reality for the advertiser so far Support the title of being the most awarded director of commercials in Iberoamerica. Bad Habits has received several awards among highlighting the Award for Best First Feature in version number twenty of the International Film Festival Guadalajara and Los Angeles Latino International Film Festival, the award "Silver Zenith" at the Montreal World Film Festival and the award "Golden Precolumbian Circle "In the past Film Festival of Bogota, Colombia.
There is an urban legend that accounts for an educational institution in the drain of the baths 
flooded because of the gastric juices that came from the women's bathrooms, as year after year, indefinite number of students had vomited to care figure. This type of urban legend served as an example to make the exercise of displaying to the world, the issue of eating disorders such as anorexia and bulimia who only this year in Mexico has quintupled numbers. It is known that there are around two million Mexicans suffer from such disorders. This then is the theme of this film which also touched the values \u200b\u200bof faith, belief, love and family decay.

It is known that there are around two million Mexicans suffer from such disorders. This then is the theme of this film which also touched the values \u200b\u200bof faith, belief, love and family decay. All this makes Bad Habits in a movie character with a huge social and universality, because this problem affects many people around the world and of different ages, despite being centered in the Mexican case is easily understood and readily identifiable to anyone. There is a lot of introspection also in this film. We can see how hard the director questioned aspects of society today. It criticizes the exaggerated importance to artificial items, vanity, blind desire for wanting to do unnecessary things to be part of a society that judges others by their physical or appearance. Around the abundance of food that appear there, gives us a reflection in the midst of an unjust world in which some yearn to eat, while others wasted or hate this act.
Simon Bross explained that the film was not
thought to participate in festivals, but the aesthetics of the film, the photography, lighting, locations, music, camera work, give it a distinctive artistic flair of those films that take part in film festivals , to do so seem otherwise. Anyway, we should not ignore the fact that the language used and the story are simple and accessible to any audience in spite of the great connotations it has. This is an open movie, which allows several readings, beginning with its title that pays homage to bad eating habits that lead to serious diseases such as anorexia and bulimia, and also serves to show how a nun wearing his "bad habit" to be moved by an unhealthy and questionable faith. The subject of bulimia and anorexia due to the lives that are being charged, went from being a superficial issue
, models and celebrities, a public health issue and controversy, which cost production a year of filming, because for more impact and print more realism became a film chronologically as the actresses had to go up or down from kilo during this period of time. Such is the case of Elena de Haro Mexican actress who plays the girl's mother Elena and who should go down to 42 kilos, an effort that is reflected in his performance with many psychological elements in between and a truly impressive appearance. Accompany the division Ximena Ayala (nun), Ariel-winning actress as Best Actress for her role in the film Yessica Perfume of Violets, 2000 and Marco Antonio Treviño, who plays a father Gustavo something cold, passive and indifferent . I can not finish this review without talking about water, a vital element of bad habits that accompanies the film in almost all his films. Water is an observer as a silent witness cries and is the trigger for events, is also represents a milestone sad, suffering, dark, hopeless and melancholy.
What I liked: photography, the role of Elana de Haro
What I liked least: A little rhythm and final
TRAILER
Good Luck! And do not forget to be yourself those who give a score to the film. Thanks.
