but in the "night on earth" earth meets "buena vista social club", it still holds its own. So why the bad critics and why see it still? Bad critics: guess what! you bring seven directors together, some well known even if only in their country, some with a lesser reputation, and they deliver uneven results! What???? Yes del toro or cantet get away with more formal takes on life in habana, but they have a lightness of tone which carry the story through. But all in all these snapshots won't bring anything new to anyone having spent a longer than tourist week package in havana, they will bring amused recollections to those who did enjoy the package, and will show the potential explorers why it's worth going there. And for those who don't care about tourism, well it has the nice feel of those sixties and seventies sketches and shorts genre movies i personally so enjoyed.
