Doua lozuri

It's a brilliant movie! Funny, smart, really good and funny again. The best comedy I've seen in years. From the script to acting, bright and colorful image, sound quality, editing, everything has a quality it acquires international value. The disadvantage of it being so Romanian may diminish a lot of its humor for foreign viewers, but there is something universal about humor and this movie has that. Cause the policeman jokes are universal and every country has it's own conspiracy believers. It's not a dark/ gloomy/ tragic comedy as Filantropica, but is a sweet satire of the contemporary Romanian rural society. Not sure if it's Paul Negoescu manifesto, but this movie is setting up a new standard in Romanian cinema achievement. Just go and see it.

"Comedy" is not a genre American arthouse audiences traditionally associate with Romanian cinema. But this out of left field sleeper is very much a comedy--and a perfectly scaled, beautifully executed and acted one. I was reminded of the early films of Jim Jarmusch (particularly "Stranger Than Paradise" and "Down by Law").

There was also a soupçon of Milos Forman's Czech New Wave movies like "The Fireman's Ball." I went into this expecting, well, not much of anything (I'd never heard of the director before, and knew that it had a 2016 copyright date which didn't inspire much confidence), and was pleasantly surprised to say the least.

Somebody should buy the remake rights. I could definitely picture an American version set in, say, Atlanta with three African-American leads as the lugheads who lose a winning lottery ticket.

I personally believe that this is the best Romanian comedy ever made! It is true that I have seen good movies with a scent of comedy (Sieranevada is a very good example, Moartea Dlui. Lazarescu), probably because every Romanian movie that is not a drama in its essence has a scent of (local wise) comedy. Nevertheless, I feel that this is a new broken ground for Romanian movies in terms of comedy, it is like nothing I have seen before! And if not the best one of the very best comedies I have seen until now. Of course the story has its merit, but , I think, it's such a good movie because it's a genius one, from the way in which it's build and directed, to the building of the characters, to the chosen actors (that fit incredibly well in their characters), all in all, pure genius! I have laughed so hard that my face hurt after the movie, I laughed with all my heart and from the very deep of me! I loved the movie completely, I highly recommend it! And congratulations to the Romanian movies making industry, this year has been incredible good (with all its Ilegitim, Bacalaureat, Sieranevada, Caini, 6,9 pe scara Richter that I have seen at TIFF - looking forward to its premiere and last but not least even the short movies have been very good (Ninel & After 7 months ruled)! Congrats to our incredible new wavers!

Haahah.I am only 15 but i can say this is a excellent movie.It's bad that some...can't swear but i can name them only idiots come here and give like 1 star, even they didn't see the movie.I am passionate about old movies, and saw a lot from my country and i am sure this will going to be a movie to remember and 20-30 years from now i will show it to my kids and told them about it. I think this is the best Romanian comedy that i ever saw.I know, there are a lot others Romanian movies, but from what i see so far this is the best one.Of course that are more movies that i like from Romania, but i say it again, this is the best one. Only the think that i see the real living in Romania: Dacia cars, people how try to earn money and the oldish style of the taverns; give me goosebumps.

I really had a lot of fun watching it in the cinema, mostly because it is a rare occasion to find good quality humor in Romanian movies lately (and in American movies either). It takes a story from Caragiale but it brings it in the modernity, reflecting a part of the society, with hopes, aspirations, problems and hilarious ways of solving these problems. Maybe not the best movie for foreigners who will probably miss most of the jokes and the humorous situations, but a good movie to watch on a Saturday evening with friends. Actors are funny, the story is relaxed, the director brought a bit of a nostalgic vibe, - thank God, not too much nostalgia after the communist times. I appreciate the good vibe and the warm tone of the story from Doua lozuri, compared to the offensive, vulgar, even raw movies that seem to haunt the modern Romanian cinema.
