How I Fell in Love with a Gangster

This film perfectly shows Polish reality. If you are not familiar with how Poland looked at that times then is must to watch for you.

Acting is good. Great scenario, little bit boring at some moments but everything is important to get know a story of one of the famous Polish gangsters.

If you like films worth to spend that time in front of the screen.

Just Wow What A Great performance With A Amazing Directing And A Beautiful Storyline And The Music Was Marvelous In My Opinion It Will Be One Of The Best Movies Of 2022.

Others have commented on the plot, acting and other aspects of moviemaking, so I'll discuss the backdrop. Much of the movie spans the 1970s through the 1990s in Poland and most of that time, the country was under a Communist government, but you'd hardly know it.

It is true that Poland practiced a slightly softer version of Communism than say, East Germany or the Soviet Union. It is also true that the image of the well functioning Communist state was built on lies, there was plenty of corruption, crime networks existed and there were the illicit rich. Having said that, the state was still all powerful in Communist countries and anyone of any means had to bribe and cajole members of the party and security apparatus to maintain their status. Yet this is hardly shown at all in the movie.

That aside, it's still a good and entertaining, if a times bizarre, flick.

I never normally leave reviews, but felt compelled to after watching this.

This is one of the best films I've watched in a very long time. It left me thinking of it long after I watched it, and not many can make me do this.

Not only was the acting some of the best I've seen in a while-especially the main character who plays Nikos, who really gives you a deep understanding and empathy towards the character, but also the film is so visually artistic and not forgetting the soundtrack, Moby and Paulo Nutini being the two best tracks to stir up your emotions at the films ending.

Cannot fault this film, and it's one that will stay with me for a long time.

In my opinion this is a very good movie. Great music. Great production. Very long but also very interesting story. I hope more polish movies will be on such good level of production quality and story-telling as this movie is. It was a pleasure to watch this movie. Wlosak and Fabianski played their roles very natural and convicingly. I don't know the true story. I don't care. The movie is awasome!
