Big mess.
4 February 2024
Another polish flop about cheating and playing victim. Why am I not surprised. I wanted to enjoy this but there were too many cringe moments. Such as the lack of chemistry, the touching scenes were hot but not hot enough, her mother she didn't get on with but then took bad advice from, her husband we didn't really know much about, the story involving Janeks character who liked older women and had a track record we didn't know too much about other then he comes on strong but seems to get to base quickly and the most annoying part for me was yet again it's a huge mansion in a movie. Have you seen Poland lately? Do you realise how impossible and unrealistic it would be to afford that house? What's wrong with an ordinary house? And what was polish about the movie? Nothing.

For starters Nina who played Roma the blonde lead with a very questionable hair cut, seemed to pack on weight the more the movie went on. It was obvious how she was hiding a bit multiple times in a romantic scene that she was a tad insecure and probably out of her depth. Maybe not a good actress but it was her character from the start I really had big problems with. I mean, how awful of her to flirt during the interview or first meeting with the handsome blonde male? How wrong of her colleagues or friend to push for it knowing she's married? This is what's wrong with society. Women play victim, men just often want to escape their reality and then communication is to blame suddenly. Never wanting more as a female who fancied dipping her toe is to blame. Disgusting character.

But then you've got to admit as the movie went on and we saw how we could feel sorry for her because she really stepped into her role and looked vulnerable and desperate for attention. They didn't seem to get much work done though. She says she has nothing but the kids but yet she has a job like that. Very strange. Then throws herself into the arms of him to make herself feel hot and wanted. But having him in the house in front of her kids I mean who does that.

Finally Janek. Or whatever the male lead was called. That facial hair got in the way. He's toned but not muscular and blonde which is what girls tend to go for these days if they can, he seems really nice but then jumps all over women at the first chance. Almost felt forced. And the facial hair was disgusting.

I know how it feels to be her. I'm in that boat because I left my job to look after my son full time so my partner can work. That was the way things went after financial damage caused by lockdown. I feel unwanted every week. I could be out there dipping my toe. But for what it's worth, I don't. Because it's knowing what's important and right and wrong. And also because girls these days are exactly like her and her friends let's be spot on about that. So it's not worth it. Never would I ever is what I've read but that's false because most would.

All in all I could go on and on about this movie. I've not finished the ending yet but I've read that was bad. But as I said again a polish film, which couldn't make its mind up and didn't have a strong enough story, messed up.
