Could've been much funnier

Rating: 6/10 (27 June 2020)

As a gay European, Eurovision is a big part of our culture, and I'm aware it's so cheesy and over the top, but you can't look away, it's a lot of fun. The first part of the film embodied that well, it started with many funny moments, and in a tone of satire, which made me laugh out loud a few times. However it doesn't take long until it looses it's mojo, and the tone gets over the place, there are some melodramatic moments, cheesy moments which I didn't expect, as it does to make fun of cheesy at the same time. Also it felt like they were quickly left out of jokes to make , like Lars being late for the song, storming on the stage, it was ok the first time, but then that happens again in the final act. I hoped they'd go all the way in with the comedy and they didn't.
