Sexmission

(A) Very, very impressive. Low budget, but still sooo good! Very funny (in its original language) and creative. And if you thought that Truman Show's ending was weird, you should see this movie.. Wow. Good stuff. And the last scene ends the movie perfectly.

I recently saw this brilliant Polish film with English subtitles and I must say that I am becoming quite a fan of this director. After seeing this, I realize that the Wachowski Brothers are obviously Polish, hailing from Chicago - a Polish epicenter and obviously fans of this film. If you liked the philosophy, the 'what is real' twists running in the Matrix then you best check this film and witness the obvious inspiration for that stunning trilogy.

This film is seriously clever, gratuitous and the obvious forerunner to what we praise the Wachowski Brothers for so cleverly revealing to the American audience; the decadence of totalitarian regimes, propaganda and fascist idiosyncrasies. Mind you this film is funny, even with subtitles.

'Sex Mission' is a Polish classic. It is an obvious reaction to Communism and quite brilliant as a humanist science fiction. Quite a few scenes seem to be properly praised throughout the Matrix Trilogy and its fun to witness the clever inspiration for such blockbuster features.

This is one of the two Polish movies I've ever seen (the other one was incidentally Kilerów Dwóch, also by Juliusz Machulski), and I wish I could see it subtitled. (The Czech version contains an unbelievable goof where the sound is like ten seconds behind the picture in one scene.) What can I say? The film relies largely on funny situations and witty one-liners, but as a whole it is a blatant and witty satire on the Communist regime, and potentially on any other regime, but above all, is a good comedy. I have it under good authority that there is no-one in Poland who hasn't seen Seksmisja. :)

I saw this movie a few years ago on t.v with English subtitles.A wonderfully original script and a brilliant cast.Touches beautifully on the identity crises faced by the modern male in a post-feminist society and pays tribute to other cinematic classics like the Wizard of Oz and La cage aux folles (and possibly a little Benny Hill).

I saw this movie with Danish subtitles a long time ago, and I found it very funny. It was a little difficult to find it because of its title.

There are at roughly two types of science fiction. One type focuses on the fascination with science and tries to depict the future. Another type seeks to satirize or criticize contemporary society by simplifying the problems in futuristic settings.

This movie is of the second kind. Two men are frozen down and wake up 50 years later in a society populated only by women. Not a very credible story, but that's not the point of the movie. The movie is full of funny dialogues as well as satire of questions of sexuality and the meaning of equality in contemporary society.

The movie is highly recommended. It also gets away with the special effects quite well despite a low budget.
