Other well known actors in Venezuela who worked in the movie are the first actor "Miguel Angel Landa" as Andres' grandfather, the actor "Jose Roberto Diaz" as Vicente Gallanes who is Julissa's father. Among others.

The director of the film is "Luis Carlos Hueck" who is also a Venezuelan screenwriter and film producer, among his films is "Vuelve a la vida" and the tape "Sex and the future" in both works he did the production, direction and screenplay. He also stands out as an actor.
For those who are not related to this type of Latin cinema, here in Venezuela the films basically the directors do all the work in general.
Producer:
In charge of the production of the film is by "Yvo Hernandez" who also did the Design production. The editing was by "Diego Cardier" and "Jonathan Pellicer". The wardrobe was in charge of "Marianela Rios".
All of them are part of the production of the film.
Script:
The script of the film was written by the director himself "Luis Carlos Hueck" who was inspired by the Venezuelan baseball fans, especially the fans of the country's rival teams "Los Navegantes del Magallanes" and "Los Leones del Caracas". The script of course is a comedy that narrates this obsession of baseball fans through the love story of Andres and Julissa.
Soundtrack:
The soundtrack of the movie was made by the musician "Elik Alvarez" who made all the songs of the movie among some of the most outstanding are: Esta es Venezuela, Julissa, and Amor entre Rivales.
From this soundtrack an album was made with all the songs of the movie to promote the film.
Visual Effects:
The visual effects in this movie are scarce, mostly in the accident scenes to simulate the collision between the two cars. There were also visual effects at the make-up level. The movie really focuses on the story that is being told.
Curious facts:
One of the most curious facts about the movie is that its name comes from an emblematic phrase that was used for a long time by the baseball sports narrator "Pepe Delgado Rivero" who is a legend of the sports narration of the country and Latin America, and who put this emblematic phrase in his narrations of baseball games, Papita, Mani Y toston.
Another curious fact is that the movie, because of its success and because the public is a baseball fan during the seasons of the games, the TV channels broadcast it in order to have an audience on those dates. As a result, they have decided to make a TV series.
Based on:
The movie is based on the professional baseball teams of Venezuela, and the fanaticism that exists for them. Most of all for the eternal rivals that are the most valued teams in the country, "Los Navegantes del Magallanes and Los Leones del Caracas" who are rivals of the year 1942. Where Magallanes beat Leones 2-1, remaining from that moment on as eternal rivals, since it was a phenomenal and emblematic game for the country.
Critca:
The movie in the country had very good reviews and mostly positive, it won many awards in the country and has also been released in Latin countries with very good acceptance, since the movie is very funny. They criticize a little its language because it is a very colloquial language with very Venezuelan words.
Opinion:
In my personal opinion, the movie is very good, it gives a lot of laughter because the movie is based on our culture of Venezuelan sport like baseball, as everyone knows in Venezuela baseball has taken to the big leagues in the United States many famous players, so the culture of this sport in the country is very large and something of every year, you can commonly see people wearing team shirts and caps etc.. That's why the movie has been very successful. In particular I am not a big baseball fan but I loved the movie. It connects you with what it's like to be a fan of a team, it also touches on that theme that we are rivals but we love each other and our families don't get along because of them, simulating something very similar to "Romeo and Juliet", and that despite that rivalry in the hardest moments love can overcome all that rivalry and make both of them get along.
Conclusion:
To conclude I can tell you that the movie is very very good and fun, for all those who read me and are in other countries and do not know it, look it up on the internet and see it, you will like it very much. The performances are great, the work is very well done in general and this movie gave a different concept to Venezuelan cinema. It is worth mentioning that there is a second part of this film which is also very good and is titled "Papita, mani y tostan 2 Base". I tell you, you will not stop laughing with this comedy.
So far in today's post friends thanks for reading me and I hope you like this cinemania to look for the movie and watch it and laugh a lot. See you in a new post a thousand blessings.
