Reception

Critical reception

edit

Sebastián Zavala from cinencuentro.com wrote: "La herencia is a bad movie. It has salvageable elements, some good performances and it is not very long, but as a comedy, as a professional audiovisual product, it is quite disastrous."[5] On the other hand, Omar Cáceres from Lamula.pe wrote: "La herencia is a nice film that respects the viewer. It won't cause many laughs, it won't be the great story one would expect from a comedy, but it won't be visually degrading. Maybe with an improvement in the script (a riskier and less predictable story) it would have worked better."[6]

Box-office

edit

The film attracted 127,714 viewers throughout its run in Peruvian theaters.[7]
