"Luli dhe Goni Lemes" is a heartwarming Albanian comedy that beautifully captures the essence of youth, friendship, and the quiet struggles of rural life.
What makes this film stand out is its authenticity. The cinematography is rich with natural light and breathtaking landscapes, painting a raw but poetic image of the Albanian countryside. The performances by the cast of actors feel genuine and deeply emotional
Genius script! Positive vibes and endless laughter.. it's all masterfully blended between nostalgia and social commentary, giving viewers a window into a forgotten era, yet with themes that remain timeless-hope, sacrifice, and the bond of true friendship.
I personally loved it! Will watch again!

Enjoyed every second of it. The cast is amazing. Aurela being the icon that she is, did and amazing job as an actress as well while portraying Leme a typical albanian posesive mom that always has a saying in everysingle decision of her sons life, Fjoralba besides her insane visuals that have truly no competion in albania and her showgirl vibe she portraited Saras character in all her timidness and pain so powerfully, Dejvi being a very promising actor did an amazing job in portraying Goni the typical mom boy but also eager to find true love and chose his heart above all society stigmas, Luli the funny one had everybody laughing with his typical albanian jokes and "unnessesary" interventions at totally wrong timing on certain situations that added extra comic taste to the whole movie. Overall the movie is a hit and I truly believe is the best albania movie in the last decade to be produced. Keep up the good job miss Producer.

I read the other reviews and they're all on point. I can see it being relevant even 20 yrs from now. The screenplay is perfect, especially knowing most movies made in albania don't know what a screenplay is. The themes are oh so relevent for us albanians, even for us immigrants in europe. But above all, the humour, the banter, the dialogue: brilliant. My six pack, buried under my fat hurt so much the next day from laughing. We need more like this from our motherland. I love comedies so I hope there's more like this in the future.
I recommends to whomever reads this, but I warn you: you'll lauvh so much you belly will ache days after.
The best I've seen! 9.5/10.

Well done! Impressed with the chimistry, flow of the movie, character build ups, pace etc.
Everybody in their life has met at least once a Leme, a Luli, Goni or Sarà so their storylines felt familiar, also organically well writen and acted. Personally loved the couple Sara Goni and found myself wishing to see more of those 2 involved with each other. People Were laughing throughout the whole movie but also there were some strong messages involved, especially from Sara's character whom Fjoralba captured impressively good. Her esence, smartness, burdens, shyness and also her wild spirit embodied, but to be honest all 4 actors did and amazing job. Truly loved the movie and I highly recommend.

The best Albanian film I've ever seen! 👏The story immediately grabbed my attention - the script is smart, funny, and full of heart. The characters feel real, like people you actually know, and the situations are both entertaining and thought-provoking. One minute I was laughing, the next I found myself genuinely reflecting on what had just happened. The execution is superb - I'm honestly surprised and impressed! I watched this film because I've seen other work by the same screenwriter, and once again, she didn't disappoint. Her writing has a unique way of connecting with the audience. Super 👏👏👏
