Ma Vie Merveilleuse

To portray a "wonderful life", I emphasize in quotes, it is necessary to reflect the triviality of mundane life; If you have experienced any of the roles seen in the film, you will understand what this comment is about. It is not easy to show the dark sides of life after forty, nor to embody the solutions we find to survive the apathy and inconsistency of social stigmas. I appreciate the ending, and I dream that this is how most all the true stories end.

... a Polish version of a middle-aged haggard-mother-wife suffering mid-life crisis... fairly well acted-produced.. there's really nothing new, yet it is better than many others in its category... the ending if anything is a letdown.. being one of those 'whatever-you-want-it-to-be' finales

... 2nd-3rd viewing... went back looking at the ending a couple different times... finally understand, she was confirming a choice at the ending... one she had been making over and over throughout the entire movie, told in a final-gaze ... possibly her family coming to that realization as well.

Not funny, no drama and the only romance appears to be ocassional leg over with a fellow work colleague.

Not sure what this movie was trying to be.

Bore off.

It takes too long to establish the story's thrust; and it lacks drive.

It's a serious film that explores the challenges that a wife and teacher and mother faces on a daily basis and she's about ready to give up. This film has the same vibe as the Georgian film, My Happy Family (Cheni Bednieri Okakhi). Agata Buzek is in the same predicament as Ia Shugliashvili in the latter film.

The final scene is oddly funny if it wasn't all about a serious matter.

My admiration for director Lukasz Grzegorzek for efforts to make this film work.

Like the other reviewers, I have no idea what this movie was supposed to be about. After the first 30 minutes, it just seemed to be a series of scenes randomly stuck together, almost like "Reality TV" showing a hum drum existence and the routine of life. We all live it, so there was no need to watch a movie about it! A total bore.
