Reception
El Mundo notes that in the two segments, sex is as central a topic as hot sauce. Multiplatform Media in Mexico indeed noted that the title of the film was self-explanatory, while Cinema of Solitude: A Critical Study of Mexican Film, 1967-1983 saw in it one of various films of Cardona Jr. based on the same narrative pattern. Contrapunto found the film was "a stupid comedy, very cheap under all aspects". MiTv found the two comedic segments "hilarious".
