This is a movie that presents an interesting perspective on personal growth, mentorship, and the complexity of self-improvement. I was curious about the concept, because nowadays it's easy to expect that a movie with a lighthearted theme could easily fall into clichés. However, I was pleasantly surprised to see that it offers more than it initially seems.
At its heart, the film is about mentorship and the relationships that form between those who have experience and those who are looking to learn. The story does a good job of bringing together characters with different backgrounds, creating a dynamic that feels authentic and not forced. It's refreshing to see a movie where mentorship is explored beyond the typical teacher-student setup. The way the characters grow and evolve throughout the movie feels natural, and that's something I really appreciated.
The thing that stood out to me was the film's honest approach to growth both personal and professional. While many movies try to portray self-improvement in an overly idealized way, this movie doesn't sugarcoat the reality. It shows how hard growth can be, the setbacks, the struggles, and the times when things just don't go as planned. I liked that it kept things real. Not everything falls into place smoothly, and that's something most of us can relate to. The characters face challenges and make mistakes, and it's their response to those challenges that defines their development.
The film doesn't beat you over the head with preachy messages. Instead, it lets the story unfold organically which helps keep the film grounded. Growth isn't a straight path, and the film emphasizes that well.
The humor in Mentorii is another highlight. It doesn't go for cheap laughs or over-the-top gags. The comedy comes from the awkwardness and authenticity of the characters' interactions, which made it even more enjoyable. It's a nice change from films that rely on forced humor. The humor here feels natural and complements the film's tone perfectly.
It is a film that knows what it wants to say, and it delivers that message in a subtle and effective way. It's not a perfect film, but it's definitely worth watching. If you're into films that have substance and a meaningful story, I recomand you to put this one on your list.
This is not a revolutionary film, but it will leave you with something to think about after it's over. It's a solid, well-rounded movie that offers more than just entertainment it gives you a chance to reflect on the relationships in your own life and how you approach growth and learning.

I admit i was a bit sceptic the first 20 minutes but as the characters appeared and developed it was very fun to watch :) there were some scenes were i laughed so hard that i don't remember the last time i laughed so much at a romanian movie. I will definetly use some of the lines from the movie in real life. Too good :)).
I was also surprised by some of the actors, young but very talented. It is nice to discover new talents. I am considering taking my daughter to see the movie, so she can make an ideea about the reality behind the influencers industry. Quite a good satire of that world.
Keep up the good work!

I'm trying to review this movie by comparing it with the other Romanian comedies recently made: No swearings (great for the entire family above 8-9 yo let's say), unexpectedly good pace, truthful actors (so unexpected from the influencers like Dorian Popa, Dracea, Mira, Mihai Petre or Mario Fresh), and last but not least... many smart jokes out there. That isn't a series of gags, it is driven by a story indeed. I went to the movie with very low expectations and left with a completely changed mindset. Laughed a lot. And yes... the author tried to give a moral ending there. Maybe could have been better, but the initiative is commendable. It really shows you the way influencers really are nowadays. Indeed... the commercials in the film were many and nauseating... maybe they'll look for other ways to finance it in the future, but overall... go see this film no matter how precious you are. You're gonna get a good laugh. Truly recommend!
I went to this movie without huge expectations, just curious about how it would handle the influencer phenomenon. Two hours later, I left laughing and impressed.
The film is much more than just comedy it cleverly satirizes the online self-help industry, exposing how ridiculous influencer success formulas can be. The humor is sharp, but beneath the laughs lies a subtle critique of our obsession with quick fixes.
Catalin Bordea is a natural in the lead role, carrying the film effortlessly. While some feared the presence of non-actors, Dorian Popa and Loredana Groza bring high energy and play exaggerated versions of themselves, which fits perfectly.
Yes, there are product placements, but they fit the world of social media influencers and were even met with laughter in the cinema. The real focus remains Johnny's journey, not marketing.
This is not a film aiming for festivals it is a fun, well-paced comedy that keeps you entertained. Some will criticize it for being too commercial, but that is exactly what makes it authentic. It speaks directly about the world we live in today, embracing its contradictions with humor and insight.
I left with a smile, thinking that sometimes, these are the movies we truly need ones that entertain while holding up a mirror to our reality.
