I am a male and I rarely watch romantic comedies, this genre is not really my cup of tea by default, I usually only watch this type of movies only in the companion of a girl, but I have to admit I absolutely like this movie. It is a Hungarian romantic comedy with a little bit of drama in it.
I remember first watching this movie at my local theatre when it was released in Hungary in 2005. It was a national holiday, the movie theatres were open, but there was not really anything playing that was of my interest, so I decided to watch this movie. And boy, what a good decision it was, I was pleasantly surprised with this movie.
Good basic premise, well drawn up, very likeable characters, played by actresses and actors who are perfect for their roles and who are all on top of their games and play those characters perfectly. The humour is the right type (at least for me), the dialogues are good, lifelike and funny, the two main actresses are young and beautiful, and sometimes scantily clad, and there is even a little bit of female (and a bit of male) nudity in it if that is what you are after. :)
At the end of the movie there is a happy ending, everybody finds the right partner. And be warned, shortly after the end credits start rolling, there are a few more scenes that are part of the story and conclude the story. Also, as extra entertainment, during the closing credits there are bloopers, outtakes where the cast members made a mistake in the scene, these are also great fun. I think the best way to watch the movie is to watch it in its original Hungarian, because the dialogues, the jokes, the slang come over best in Hungarian, it is not always possible to translate them into English perfectly. Obviously, this option is only available to Hungarian speakers.
I am very picky when it comes to which movie to include in my blu-ray collection, but this movie definitely earned its place in my collection.
A well-written, well-acted, well-made, funny and very enjoyable romantic comedy. This is my favourite Hungarian movie and my favourite romantic comedy of all time. Perfect entertainment, a resounding 10 out of 10. Highly recommended.
