Luli & Goni Lemes

Very nice film with clever humor, with events that have happened to us and continue to happen in Albania. I understand that Leme, being a single mother is very protective and therefore she acts stubborn and decides everything for her son so that what might have happened to her does not happen to him. Fjoralba is like a good part of women in Albania, who are young and the family decides her fate without asking her, simply because a man can have money and lives abroad. Luli is the personification of boys who are neglected by the family or society where they live, grow up without the care of their parents and then are then bullied. And the solution then, as for everything in Albania, is to flee this country. Goni is a mother's son, whose mother controls him for everything and will not let him do the things he wants. But in the end he understands that he must become his own master and do what his heart dictates. And then we have a train car full of other characters who not only give us picture of Albanian society but also better highlight the journey on which the characters of the film travel. And with all these ingredients mixed, comes the best thing that has never been shown in cinema, an albanian film full of humor that never slows down until the end. Even when the end credits come out. We have a small scene that is the cherry on top. Simply the best film that comes from Albania. Glad it came to Europe for us other albanians to see it.

Bravo!

Hands down the best albanian comedy. 👏👏👏 We enjoyed it soo soo much. The characters felt so real in their own personal growth or of what they represented. I could see myself so clearly in Sara's dilemmas due to society expectations and also her curiosity to the unknown. Loved the way Fjoralba portraited her by balancing innocence and strength so beautifully. Leme on the other hand reminds me of my exmother in law, although I disliked the character due to personal reasons, Aurela her self did an amazing job on portraying it. The bromance between Luli and Goni was so funny and amazing at the same time. Love it. Please go and watch it so hopefully we will get a part 2.

The best Albanian film I've ever seen! 👏The story immediately grabbed my attention - the script is smart, funny, and full of heart. The characters feel real, like people you actually know, and the situations are both entertaining and thought-provoking. One minute I was laughing, the next I found myself genuinely reflecting on what had just happened. The execution is superb - I'm honestly surprised and impressed! I watched this film because I've seen other work by the same screenwriter, and once again, she didn't disappoint. Her writing has a unique way of connecting with the audience. Super 👏👏👏

I read the other reviews and they're all on point. I can see it being relevant even 20 yrs from now. The screenplay is perfect, especially knowing most movies made in albania don't know what a screenplay is. The themes are oh so relevent for us albanians, even for us immigrants in europe. But above all, the humour, the banter, the dialogue: brilliant. My six pack, buried under my fat hurt so much the next day from laughing. We need more like this from our motherland. I love comedies so I hope there's more like this in the future.

I recommends to whomever reads this, but I warn you: you'll lauvh so much you belly will ache days after.

The best I've seen! 9.5/10.

This is a truly beautiful and well-crafted film that captures your attention from the very beginning and keeps you entertained throughout. Every scene is thoughtfully connected, creating a smooth, cohesive flow that makes the story easy to follow and enjoyable to watch. The pacing is just right-never too fast, never too slow-and the humor is spot-on. You'll find yourself laughing from one moment to the next, thanks to clever dialogue, funny situations, and great timing from the cast. The performances are strong, the direction is sharp, and the overall atmosphere is light and uplifting. It's the kind of movie that leaves you in a good mood and makes you want to watch it again. A perfect choice if you're looking for something fun, smart, and heartwarming.
