"Instructions Not Included" (original title "No se Aceptan Devoluciones") is one of the most interesting cinematic surprises to come along in years. This mostly Spanish-language melodrama/comedy wasn’t prescreened for critics in most markets and still hasn’t earned a great deal of English-language press, yet it has earned more than $20 million in less than two weeks. It’s not unprecedented for a "foreign" film (more on that in a moment) to do well in the U.S., but this movie wasn’t on anyone’s radar until it debuted in the box office top ten.
