It is a good idea, however the execution fails.
Sariñana copies a lot of scenes from several movies, however he doesn't seem to have a style of his own. One scene is a shameful Baz Luhrmann's Romeo + Juliet rip-off, but without Luhrmann's artistry.
So many different styles crammed into one film doesn't make any good...
Also, acting of most secondary actors is very, very flat.
Dialogues aren't that good... teenagers don't talk that way.
And there are two completely unnecessary nude scenes (not full, only from the waist up).
I consider "Amar Te Duele" as the child of a dull MTV video clip and a standard Televisa telenovela (soap opera).
