Tart, well-written comedy from Will Stillman (METROPOLITAN) about two American cousins (Taylor Nichols and Chris Eigeman) living in said Spanish city in "the last decade of the cold war." The former is a salesman, the latter is a Naval officer and, together, they spend most of the film trying to avoid anti-American sentiment while wooing the wild women of Barcelona. Watch for some great, low-key gags about shaving, ants, and underwear. Not hilarious, but *very* amusing. Keen political edge, too! Grade: B+
