Moi, apprivoisée?

The Netflix/Hallmark template overlaid on 2022 Poland. If you wanted to get a feel of modern Polish Culture is this at all enlightening? Maybe a Post-Putin tour of the country would be more enlightening!

They over did the Polish hick country folks and I like it.

They end up together. Adversity to get there. Fall in love. He sacrifices to get his gal They lived happily ever after. Nothing new here.

Countryside nice, acting OK, both leads delicious in physical appearance. Supporting cast were Polish country hick hilarious. They made the movie to me. Near slapstick at times.

The male country hick costumes looked very uncomfortable to me especially the pants.

Worth a watch but no more than once. I like corny and this movie had plenty of it.

If you are in the mood for something that requires little cerebral activity and have an escape from the day to day, this is a decent watch. A retake on the classic but with the female still maintaining her persona rather than being a submissive, mixed with some Polish culture and cinematography makes this a harmless, sometimes funny film. It has a plot and stays pretty much on track and it ties up at the end.

Don't try to overanalyse or think you are some big shot movie critic but take this movie at face value. It's simple and playful, it has funny anecdotes - some that get lost in the translation - and it's innocent fun.

I know that we get annoyed or maybe even used to a certain type of movie. Like this one - where we know the formula and there is not much that will surprise us in the overall scheme of things. Yet that aside (and some little twists or surprises that do still exist), what really helps this are the two main actors. Who take their roles and fill them with charisma.

I really dug what I saw here. This is not a masterpiece for sure, but it is a fun little movie. And while it may be a bit more tease than some would like - it still is able to show us things that US movies shy away from. Like nudity for example - most romantic outings from the US are not going down that road, because of the ratings over there.

So if you don't mind (I won't go as far as to call anyone who has issues with a bit of skin prude) that little bit of erotica the movie serves (don't expect too much), than all the teasing throughout the movie will make sense. Also for the characters ... one has been burnt badly, the other one is on a mission .. of course (mission) goals can change ... well not telling you anything new. Funny and light throughout.

I loved this movie. The wardrobe, level of acting skills, and scenery made this one of my favorite movies this year. At first I was hesitant to watch it because I had to view it with English subtitles, but don't let that distract any potential viewer. It's well made, and left me having good dreams, and a desire to know more about Polish culture.
