Nunti, botezuri, inmormantari

I wonder what bet had Serban Pavlu lost to have to take this role. He is a good actor and trying to imitate Rowan Atkinson doesn't suit him well.

In the attempt to be funny some scenes get to be borderline cringey, super childish and plain embarrassing. The script might have been original in its initial form, but after the execution it just feels as yet another retake of the same old quarrel between two noisy neighbors. The second half gets worse, and the film was already draining and feeling like it is way longer than it should be.

I could imagine some people enjoying it though. But not many though.

The movie delivered an unexpected and memorable ending that left me pleasantly surprised. The cast's exceptional performances deserve all the respect, as each actor brought their character to life with charm and wit. The movie is a joyful rollercoaster of emotions, seamlessly blending humor with unexpected moments. From weddings to christenings and funerals, the narrative keeps you engaged, offering a fresh take on life's significant events. The chemistry between characters is palpable, creating a genuine and relatable atmosphere. The comedic timing is impeccable, delivering laughs without missing a beat. Overall, "Weddings, Christenings, and Funerals" is a cinematic gem that leaves you with a smile, showcasing the magic that happens when a great cast meets a well-crafted storyline. Don't miss this heartwarming and entertaining film that transcends expectations! 👏🎬 #MovieMagic #UnexpectedJoy.

Could've been worse Could've been even better

"Nunti, botezuri, inmormantari" is a 2022 romanian comedy movie starring Serban Pavlu, Gheorghe Ifrim and Anca Sigartau. Directed by Alexandru Lustig and written by Adrian Lustig.

The movie tells the story of Cosmin Berinde (S erban Pavlu), who bought a land in 2007, so he can build some houses and sells them for 1.000.000 Euro. But even near him there's a loud restaurant for rent, he fights back to reach his goal,even if it messes up his entire life.

The conflict is intense, characthers are at war and each and one of them fights back in ways that you'll never have seen coming. Unfortunately the main characther, while relatable, can often become annoying and unlikeable, not letting the audience relate to his ideas

The jokes are funny and the story is overall good, but the good moments are few and far between. The movie is long, way too long. The script does not profit from it's lengthy runtime, many scenes feelling either stale or just plain unnecessary. And it's a shame, 'cause the script has it's moment: the movie can and knows how to be entertaining. And even the good stuff can become repetitive or some scenes/plot points just fade away cause nothing really happens in some scenes

I liked this movie: the director did a good job to ilustrated this tale into a fun colorful way and the humor can be good, but the movie suffers from a dry story with good elements that aren't expended enough on.

The plot is just infantile and hard to believe. None of the characters are likeable. I cannot like the party pooper money hungry character played by Serban Pavlu and I can't like his tacky, unfunny, gross neighbours as well, but I kinda feal for the people whose parties are ruined. Nevertheless, the whole movie seems like a contest for the most cringey movie scene ever. The jokes are the kind your embarassing uncle would make when drunk at a Christmas dinner. Just old and cringey.

The only question remains why do good actors feel the need to deliver this kind of dirt?

Spare yourselves 2 hrs of your lives and skip this one. Really.

Complete non sense script, bad acting, horrible dialogues. Worst directing and acting I have seen in a long time in Romanian cinematography. I am sorry for the rest of the crew that did their job honorably ( photography, sound, makeup, location manager etc). Complete waste of time and money.

I kept watching until the end hoping it will get better but it got weirder and weirder..and at the end simply went..screw this, we don't need an ending or to give audience what they deserved after the buildup.

I feel very disappointed and betrayed..I wanted to like this movie. I want my 2hours back and to unsee this.
