It is made clear at the very early stages and using such methods that it does not leave behind any doubts about what there is to come. But wait, could there be more?

It is baffling how Finnish is mostly used in dialogues, but in order to ensure this is suppose to be a multicultural incident, English and German are used, too, and somehow, without any translation everyone understands each other no matter what. Subtitles are provided to ensure that the audience does so, too.

More surprises are to be presented at a rather steady pace, be it the change in genre from anything to something else - be it drama, action, soap opera, manifesto etc. - or who-knows-who and what murky past one has in store.

Something that is not pinpointed is humour. One has to figure it out. Either you see it or not. Dealing with big human issues, one may ponder whether the answer to the question "Are we alone?" might be revealed. For that, one has to watch it to the end.

Unfortunately, this title does not concern the subject of the series, but every aspect involved with it.

The only thing that is interesting is how many times record low points are reached and by who in the whole production line.

When the aim is to make mockery of a group of small-spuds wanna-be politicians, it ricochets all the way back to the starting point, where the seed for an idea was lost in the first place.

It does not help when spreading cheap teenage humour with every bodily fluid possible concentrating mainly below the waste line, but told and performed by middle-aged people.

Race with social media abashment is on?

The premise of this story is quite intriguing how the newly discovered alimentation, the potato (peruna) that we take for granted today, faces so many obstacles. Not only the vast dilemma of how to use it, but the resistance in general and especially from the powers that be.

The comical elements are there for satire. How history repeats itself and how much energy, effort and imagination is spent in order to prevent progress from happening.

But then, the outcome is more like an illustrated bullet listing where fashionable jargon terms are opened, at least trying so. At first, it is funny, then the jokish approach just eats it's way to oblivion and ends up being tiring to watch. No acting can save this - be it an angel or Mohican haircut with tattoos. The end result is just a piece of sadly spent time, be it the audience or the film grew.
