Boring as hell, a complete waste of time

Rating: 1/10 (1 April 2014)

I did not know in advance what this film would be about. That was the first mistake. I thought I would indulge in two hours of grandeur, somewhere in the spirit of Titanic and Winter Tale. The first minutes made me sober up already. The next part was more or less bearable, but not really. After 50 minutes I did not know what bothered me more: the film or those bloody uncomfortable chairs in the socialism era built cinema in Slovakia. This film is not brilliant or anything of the exaggerated attributives as I have read here. It is just an utterly boring caricatural persiflage of various comic TV series. The main ingredients are cheap copies of humor chewed out long ago. A little bit of Monty Python, James Bond, Colditz, etcetera, etcetera. The only reason I stayed in the cinema was my wife: I know she does not like it when I walk out of the cinema during a film (Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Avatar and other examples of movie failures).
