Polityka

For the first time in years, we walked out of the cinema. It's not a movie - it's a political attack of a worst kind. There's no plot, no story - just re-telling of news reports from the last few years in Poland. One star for some smashing performances of lead Polish actors and actresses but the whole thing is not worth the time. (As a disclosure - I don't support Polish PiS government, so I really wanted to like the movie.)

Vega has once again made a hype next to his new work, come ashamed to call this crease a work, but nevertheless there will be people who will like this film because of its stupidity. The actors played as if someone with a weapon stood behind the camera, stiffly without imagination and hopelessly, in my opinion the actors are wasting their potential on Vega films. The pictures are taken by a cameraman on a hangover, the shots are poor, no nice shots, the author of the photos went easy and took pictures for crowds, for whom this cinema is a genius of a genius. The film is a complete failure especially by the director and the script written in a very simple and silly way.

Surprisingly low rating for this film (3,7 as of this date) somehow mirrors current people's emotions in Poland and our election polls. Still it's a very good and daring film in my opinion, brilliantly although not super accuretely portraying Polish politics, media landscape and country's dominant rhetorical mode. The acting is top-notch. I was especially impressed by Antoni Królikowski, Zbigniew Zamachowski and Marcin Bosak in a smaller role playing someone who resembles todays Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki.

I think in the not so distant future the film will be either "blacklisted" and forgotten or it'll become a cult classic.

People who gave poor reviews were criticizing this movie for lack or bad jokes. Well this is not a comedy, it is a tragicomedy that depicts how politics looks Poland.

There is nothing funny in there.

Mr. Vega invites us to another '' box office productions '', which has a lot of problems, among others, costumes and makeup was rather average, passing through very poor photos and music we reach the hopeless script and the poor director of this work, if this production can be call it that. Actors, mhm actors are the people who suffered in this film, because the script blocked very good actors, and forced them to a very stiff game, which should not take place in such a high-budget production.
