Mexican moviegoers are asking for a refund after watching ‘Emilia Pérez’ in theaters
Mexico’s consumer protection agency Profeco said that it is currently reviewing demands for refunds from consumers who paid to watch the controversial film “Emilia Pérez” at Cinépolis theaters.
Mexico’s Federal Consumer Protection Agency (Profeco) is investigating complaints from consumers seeking a refund from the Mexican movie theater chain Cinépolis after watching the film “Emilia Pérez.”
Since last Thursday, the agency has received many complaints on social media from consumers demanding the money spent on their movie tickets back, the head of Profeco Iván Escalante said during President Claudia Sheinbaum’s Monday morning press conference.

Emilia Pérez, directed by French filmmaker Jacques Audiard, had 10 nominations and four wins at the Golden Globes on Jan. 5 in Los Angeles. It has since broken the record for the most Oscar nominations earned by a non-English language film, with 13.
However, many Mexicans have responded negatively to the film, which portrays the leader of a cartel as a redeemed figure. They criticize the director for a perceived lack of cultural awareness about the disappearance of hundreds of thousands of people in Mexico as a result of cartel activity.
Despite sweeping the Golden Globes, “Emilia Pérez” has deeply offended a large segment of Mexico’s population.
“Turning the country’s biggest security crisis into a musical where the protagonist is one of the perpetrators of that crisis shows a profound lack of respect,” wrote Mexican writer María Meléndez for Mexico News Daily.
“The impunity enjoyed by those responsible for over 300,000 dead and 121,000 missing isn’t material for a comedy,” added Meléndez.
At its Mexican premiere on Jan. 15, the French filmmaker responded to the criticism. “The drama of the missing is something that shocks me deeply,” Audiard said. “It’s a tragedy that’s largely invisible outside of Mexico, and my goal was to generate dialogue, not offense.”
Profeco said that it is currently reviewing demands for refunds from consumers who paid to watch “Emilia Perez” at Cinépolis theaters.
The agency has recommended that Cinépolis “recommend” rather than “guarantee” films under its policy, to avoid customer disappointment.
Sasha Banks is also asking for refund even though she never watch the movie “Emilia Pérez”… This is Feminism 101?
Sasha Banks
WWE wrestling star Sasha Banks appears to have just leaked these nude photos online.
Of course Sasha pulling down her pants and rubbing her salty sin slit all over her opponent’s face is certainly a sickening sight, but it is much better than her original move in which she would dig in her butt and then throw her feces at her foe.
Yes, the WWE would be wise to send Sasha back to whatever ghetto hood corner they found her on, for dudes don’t enjoy watching nigras bouncing around… Unless of course we are at the famed dirt skin abid exhibit at the zoo.
