Sexmission

I was so much into french comedies as a good chauvinistic stupid guy but when I saw "Seksmisja" I knew there's something's happen somewhere else. Now I'm completely into polish movies. This one is fantastic, I love it. I laughed every 2 minutes. Characters are so funny. Little things like when at the beginning somebody said to the hero who was looking so proud and strong "it can be dangerous" when he was thinking there is no danger traveling in the future :-) and he was like "oh my God !! it can be dangerous???" and suddenly he was afraid, I laughed my ass out !!! And when beautiful girls are coming to them in their jail and they are talking to them like real macho men "Dzzzzien Doooobrrreeee" :-)) Now I know we have to learn a lot from polish movies. I also saw "Rejs" and "Wniebowzieci" who was for me pure moments of pleasure. Wow ! I love Poland !! Will go to see that great country one day.

I saw this movie with Danish subtitles a long time ago, and I found it very funny. It was a little difficult to find it because of its title.

There are at roughly two types of science fiction. One type focuses on the fascination with science and tries to depict the future. Another type seeks to satirize or criticize contemporary society by simplifying the problems in futuristic settings.

This movie is of the second kind. Two men are frozen down and wake up 50 years later in a society populated only by women. Not a very credible story, but that's not the point of the movie. The movie is full of funny dialogues as well as satire of questions of sexuality and the meaning of equality in contemporary society.

The movie is highly recommended. It also gets away with the special effects quite well despite a low budget.

It's showing at the Everyman soon

Sexmission, Juliusz Machulski's sexy second feature, is a cult Polish comedy, whose dialogues and lines have entered into every day language. Two men kept in hibernation for 50 years learn that they are the only living specimens of the male sex in a new, underground society run by the League of Women's Lib. The female archeologist who digs them up hypothesises she has found the missing link between women and apes.The heroes facing harsh treatment from their female guards will do anything to save their skin and to re-establish the male population.This highly original sci-fi story with a twist and great performances by Poland's top actors is one of the most popular Polish movies of all times.

(A) Very, very impressive. Low budget, but still sooo good! Very funny (in its original language) and creative. And if you thought that Truman Show's ending was weird, you should see this movie.. Wow. Good stuff. And the last scene ends the movie perfectly.

If not even best polish movie? And it is one of the best sci-fi movies ever... Especially story line goes way ahead than many other movies out there nowadays... I saw this movie on art group, where it is compared with classics like Godfather (I), Citizen Kane etc. This one is one movie which stands out from the crowd.

For sci-fi fans, it is must... But the story is so different from mainstream science fiction, that I believe "non sci-fi fans" can get something out of this, so don't miss!
