Tati Part Time

The movie screams Cringe all over. Not a kid friendly movie even if it has kids in it.

The main character is a lawyer that has to babysit his goddaughter. The character is written to show a complete appetite to be liked by any lady that has a pulse or is near him, making him instantly a unlikable character.

Lazy script, bad writing, poor dialogue overall.

The goddaughter is the child of two romanian known people, that is why she ended up in this movie, because her acting skills lack the substance and her character tends to be a know it all kid, does not engage the viewer with her character progress, not showing any sight of smartness, just arrogant liners, she does not make you root for her, or either want to know what happens to her.

The plot is poor, not worth it going to the cinema or spending any money or most important, do not spend any of your valuable time to see this movie because you will be literally telling yourself why did you do this action in the first place.

The good: Some of the actors are great, mainly the three main ladies, the work colleagues and the kids.

The bad: The main character was played in a non-sympathetic way. I think we are supposed to like this guy by the end, but because of bad acting or bad directing or bad casting, this didn't work.

There are very few genuinely funny moments, because of the main problem of this film - the script !

Alternating between cringe-inducing jokes, casual and overt misogyny, and clichés so stale they must've dug them up from a time capsule planted in 1991, it honestly looks like the script was badly translated form a rejected American tv-movie or generated by AI.

Last but not least, the product placement is very obvious and obnoxious. It's so bad, they are just one step away from just facing the camera and reciting ad copy directly to the viewer.

Forced acting and no emotions whatsoever. The main character took the role just because her father sponsored the movie, and you can tell. Unfortunately, the actress playing Maya has no talent for a movie. She tries to play the smart, witty little girl, but it completely misses the mark. As for the main character, Iustin, he also delivers a lackluster performance.

The movie has a poor script. It tries to take all the American stereotypes and translate them into Romanian society, but there's an obvious mismatch. Forced lines attempting to provoke humor are cringe-worthy. I really had high hopes for this Romanian production when I first saw the trailer, but five minutes into the film, I already knew it would be a big disappointment. Also, for a movie that is supposed to be about kids, it's too sexual.

The story and the cast was so lame and boring. There are some things I didn't understand in the movie and others here explained here very well, I won't write it again.

I only wanted to say that you should let your kiddo do w/e she/he wants dude. I don't really understand why get a kid to play in a movie, or sing at the theatre when it's obviously that she got 0 talent in the artistic area, she can't sing like her mother, she can't act like her father. Dude, let the kid play and get her some diction courses because in the movie I didn't understand much because she can't speak and she has problems with her voice. Really annoying.

This movie was so cringe, it literally hurt all the way. I was embarrassed for the actors, honestly. I can't understand what's the amount of money you have to receive to "play" in such a thing?! Badly written, so so badly played, who would ever pay to watch something like that?! Some people should really not do movies, no matter how much money they have. Pitty for Alex Bogdan, but let's say I understand that some need to eat. On some levels they tried too hard (like dressing and hairdressing the people at the party which took place in a park - so maybe it should have been more casual and less pathetic) and on other levels they didn't try at all- writing some decent lines, for example. Horrific!
