Jan Uuspõld läheb Tartusse

this movie is good.i like Jan Uuspõld.especially Dan Põldroos (R.I.P. - 1970 - 2007)who was very banal guy,but the one of the funniest Estonian comic of all time maybe the funniest.I recommend this movie to people especially Estonians,but to others too.it was maybe a little bit banal,but never mind.the whole movie was a big mess.Estonia makes a few good movies in one year so it's good that we did again a little bit fun.Erich Krieger is actually good Estonian singer.Hannes Võrnu's role was a strange,but funny of course.Toomas Hendrik Ilves - Estonian President role was very strange. but i still recommend it. Maybe in some Europe people don't like it,but we like this movie.

This was really misunderstanding... It was showed to us (jury) on Febiofest (film festival in Prague) and I suffered very much... This "comedy" is so cheap in quality, that i had to laugh to it's creators. I tried to find there something deeper (like: movie itself wants to show what's the affection of main role - Jan Uuspõld. Maybe the quality is reasonable...), but without success. Luckily, reputation of Estonian cinematography fixed next film (Magnus) and I don't have to make prejudices about other Estonian movies. I think, that every country has some black spot on it's cinematography, and it was this case.

Please, people, don't destroy your taste and don't risk to watch it.

Jan Uuspõld läheb Tartusse aka 186 Kilometres is a 2007 Estonian comedy film about an actor, who wants to turn his life around. Tired of being a silly TV clown, he decides to take a serious role in a theatre in Tartu. But there's one problem - he has no money and has to travel by hitchhiking. What follows is a wild and funny journey across Estonia.

The film mixes real life with fiction. Many Estonian celebrities play themselves or other well-known people, which makes the movie feel unique and unpredictable. Jan meets strange and funny characters - from politicians to pop stars, from prophets to the President of Estonia himself. Along the way, he gets into all kinds of crazy situations.

Even though the film is sometimes messy and over-the-top, that's part of its charm. It shows modern Estonian life in a humorous and exaggerated way. Jan's journey is not just about getting to Tartu - it's about finding himself again after losing control of his life.

The film is especially enjoyable for Estonian viewers because of the local references and well-known people. But it can also be interesting for others who enjoy dark comedies and road movies. The late Dan Põldroos also appears in the film and gives a funny performance that fans will remember.

Overall, the film in question is a chaotic and very Estonian film. If you like unusual comedies with a local flavour and nature, this one is worth watching.
