There is a series of movies from these guys, there should be a lower bracket of what movies should be allowed to be released to public. This movie should not make the cut,
The story is simple, not necessarily bad, but acting is from horrid to horrible, the lines are drawn by the lead actor, or somebody surely not formed in a screenwriting class, coming from instagram and cultural aspects (which is the form over reality comedy here), are so exaggerated, so over the top, and so much repeated they feel cringing.
So all in all, watching this should lead one to drop the other productions from the same group, but I urge the viewer not to discard the Romanian movies in whole, as there are quite a few gems.

I've seen this movie before seeing Mirciulica, and I've really enjoyed it, especially since I've seen it after Klaus & Barroso and Teambuilding (which apparently was big in cinemas, God knows why!).
Things I liked: the plot had logic and they followed it through.
The jokes were funny and what's important for me, they weren't translated from English. They've used proper Romanian syntax.
They didn't swear as much as other actors do in other movies.
Things I didn't like: it seemed to have a very low budget: harsh lights and tight angles.
Some of the actors lack acting abilities.
Locations were not best chosen.
But, all in all, I've enjoyed it. I like a good joke without having to swear three times and include innuendo every couple of sentences.

Overcoming all the hate offered (a lot just because Mircea is Romanian and he tried something too) it's a really decent movie or rather a long vlog (rated 6-7, can work in an evening when you're bored).
I could NOT say that I burst out laughing, but I had moments when I smiled and moments when I actually laughed.
Of course, there is a lack of unity in the action and the whole plot, it ends too suddenly and seems slightly unrealistic. I personally recommend it from the perspective of their inspiration to present a purely Romanian "tradition" exactly as it is, without arrangements.
I don't understand the expectations of all the film critics here (probably they were expecting the performances of Tarantino or Nolan) and I think we should at least encourage the initiative and common sense of the whole team compared to other Romanian films.
It is clear that the industry here is just at the beginning, but it seems to be evolving quite quickly and should be encouraged, I would say.

I remember exactly times in the 90's when all of us in Eastern Europe were fascinated and inspired by Kung-fu movies , stuff of Bruce Lee, Van Damme and Jackie Chan. They were all spectacular but we had no idea they were just dumb entertainment. Story was weak, cheesy, etc. Action and stunts was good though and that is still something.
This is what the new Romanian ''Commercial Cinema'' ,how another influencer called it, dumb but never real and genuine. It is a shame though because the story of this film Wedding for Money was not that bad but badly executed. It does have nice elements in it but not enough to upset the bad acting ,fake action and weak execution. Still it proves once again that if you have the right audience, you can still make money no matter what you give them. It is sad for modern society in Romania but hey, we live in modern times! Cheers.

This is a really good Romanian comedy, I really enjoy it. It was a surprise after the movie "Mirciulica". At the end of the movie you can see that the movie will have a continuation. The grandmother is the best, she is the cherry 🍒 on the top of the cake 🎂, she have an authentic kind of humor that you can find it only in some parts of Romania. She reminds me of my own grandmother. I really home this series will continue, on the same level of humor. The 3 movie it call "Moartea în vacanta", the casting is interesting because they have the best stand up comedy in Romania 🇷🇴. So I hope everyone will enjoy this movie like I did. This is a good evolution in Romania movie industry.
