Cochon and the Small Reset

This low budget film reminded me of Monty python meets James Bond in the guise of "and for something completely different". Centred around the search of a secret formula for a special cabbage roll type delicacy and the big arsed woman. The main character travels for one place to another meeting up with variety of odd characters along the way from. Secret agents, henchmen, very very special agents and hapless assassins. It goes from London on the banks of the Thames, to canals then onto Rome and Romania. You will need to concentrate but not too hard otherwise you may find yourself asking what's just happened!?

Easily one of the funniest pictures of the year, "Cochon and the Small Reset" is an insanely hilarious experience and one of the sweetest surprises I had the chance to see lately. I wish I could remember the last film that had me in such great fun mood, laughing in its entirety, but I can't remember. My memories over this one are so vivid that I can't wait to see it again. It may not have the budget one needs to make a movie but it certainly has all the great ideas to compose a solid, funny movie and that's all we need these days.

Multi-task director/actor/writer/editor Rodrig Andrisan plays the title character, a spy who inserts a chip that improves his personal and working abilities and the device comes at the right time when his secret mission requires him to follow a mysterious big arsed woman with a diabolical plan and he must stop her at all costs, and also protect a most wanted meal recipe that everybody's seems to be looking for. From London to Rome and then Romania, Cochon meets with a series of quirk characters that only heighten our sense of curiosity and fun, in a story that mixes spy flicks, comedy, adventure, action and there's even time for some sci-fi. One cannot ask for more with such a combo of genres and they're all very successful.

Another great quality point comes from the locations used which allows you to see details and really feel as if you are travelling with Cochon through all of those places. It's not like Bond movies where you see glimpses from famous locations and "feel" you're there but the excessive cuts makes it all too quick to notice everything. Here, we are allowed to patiently see the streets, the buildings, the canal and I felt it was a curious and lovely experience. Also loved the soundtrack with an 1980's vibe that somehow fit the movie, the more those themes played the more I loved it.

Here's a deliciously hilarious film that it'll keep you glued in your chair. The humor is excellent, many great jokes all around and it truly ressurected the act of laughter on me. Nice acting by the cast too. Definitely waiting for a potential sequel since there were some unsolved things, and even if wasn't the case, I want a sequel anyway. 9/10.

From the first viewing I thought the movie was great. I watched it with great interest. Strong action, funny and comic moments, even suspense... are the words that define it.

And Rodrig's humor won me over instantly and irrevocably. But also the well-chosen team of actors.

I really liked the music. I want to congratulate the two composers who are very talented. I mention the name of Torben Friedrich alias toxygenedk, but also of the other composer of Austrian origin Fritz Mayr.

I heard that this film got Honorable Mention for BEST COMEDY in Best International Film Festival and a "modest" Winner BEST DIRECTOR in Eastern Europe Film Festival. Heartfelt congratulations, Rodrig!

God help as many participations in Festivals as possible. And lots of inspiration for future projects. Keep it like this!

What a laugh I had all the way through, great story and so funny, great work. I will watch it again over Christmas.

We'll worth watching it, in fact, a must watch, great directing and acting, a screenplay not easy to write as comedy is by far the hardest screenplay to write, very cleverly done with the life of the main actor and the director implementing his vision in such a way that he nailed on the funny part and funny side of the main characters live, by far the funniest and most enjoyable film I seen for a long time, well done everyone, gives more.

Been watching this film (only once since it is a full 2 hours film, and it is a film with a lot of crazy humor, Absolutely worth your time especially if you do like a little dark humor, i will say it is a classic Rodrig Andrisan film.

The style might be like classic British humor.

Loved it will absolutely recommend this film.

Cochon and the small reset, Written and directed by Rodrig Abdrisan, is a well Written and produced film, where the writer and production obviously have been working hard with the crew, to give the viewers a great film experience, whitout loosing the humor underway, as said worth watching.
