Audience Member silly movie with a bad cast... Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Gowno rzadkiej proby. Histeryczne, niewiarygodne, przegiete. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Damn. This is a pretty realistic view of a small town "elite": the Procescutor, the Cheif Police Commander, the sexy female Advocate, the local "Bozno"-owner of the only factory in town and the Collector, who shake the whole scene in town X. Pretty realistic, because it shows how things function in those kind of communities: theoratically, everything needs to be based on law, but in practise, it's quite different rules that everything rests on. And one can try to carry out his civil service duties in a lawful way...... Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member extremely overrated. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Great social commentary that balances out very well the depressing and the funny situations life throws our way. The great acting helps too. One of the best recent Polish movies. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Audience Member The movie shows 48 hours of life of a debt collector Lucek Bohme (Chyra), who ruthlessly enforces payments of due amounts. Arrogant, unscrupulous and devoid of feelings and compassion suddenly changes due to a dramatic event (one of his debtors hangs himself) and shifts his priorities. It's no longer the law that stands above all but the people around him and their personal problems. However, when he finds himself in trouble, those that he was trying to help and compensate for his harm, will not defeat him. A powerfull and dynamic movie with a brilliant performance by Chyra, who is great when it comes to playing ambitious and self-interested characters. The movie shows poverty, unemployment and human tragedy, but also proves that everyone can change for better. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Read all reviews
