LES CYCLADES (TWO TICKETS TO GREECE)
Watchable. They're like chalk and cheese but made to travel together. The plot's forgettable. Luckily the two French women listen to songs and often sing in English. And the movie has
a holiday feel, even the end credits finish with the sound of sea waves
Reviewed from the distributor's screener, cinematic reception might differ.
I LOVE MY DAD
Recommended. The story's incredible but plausible - apparently it happened for real which proves life writes the best movie scripts. The film's perfectly executed: excellent music choice, superb camerawork and editing, direction, all actors guarantee a captivating, sometimes funny, sometimes moving action. Top-notch entertainment with serious undertones.
ZADRA (SPLINTER)
Watchable. The movie regurgitates that plot formula in which a young cafe worker dreams of becoming a music star - rap in this case, when her dream comes true, she becomes disillusioned and loses everything, additionally she starts doing drugs. This whole story is told sketchily - rightly so, everyone knows the plot by heart, why keep us at the cinema longer than 88 minutes for some event-connecting details? It has a few heartfelt moments. Young actors give truly fine performances, adults less so, especially Magdalena Różczka looks and acts neither like a mother, nor like a cleaner. Costumes by Dzvinka Kukul and make-up and hair-styling by Magdalena Tarka look good.
