Planeta Singli

A very good 2 hours and 10 minutes of Polish romantic movie: well written (Credits list no less than eight different Authors, in strict alphabetical order…), well acted and very well filmed and produced.

The plot is nicely intertwined and lets you enjoy an updated version of Polish life, probably different from what most of us can commonly expect.

A display of beautiful and charming presences (I'm sure Weronika Ksiazkiewicz won't go unnoticed) helps to fill the screen and entertain.

I was really enjoying this movie! Funny, clever and heartwarming, great for chilling out.

I am sorry but I think I got type 2 diabetes from this movie. Would not recommend. Save your money. It is probably the worst film I have seen this year. This review does not contain spoilers since there is nothing to spoil. If you can count to 20 you will figure out this movie in the first 40 minutes then grab your phone and start browsing the internet for the next 80 minutes. The characters are shallow and completely unconsistent in their actions and responses. And the plot holes, Jesus Christ so many plot holes. You will figure them out if you can operate a toothbrush. But alas if you read this comment and still decided to watch the movie you have been warned and enjoy.

I don't watch romantic comedies all that much but I think that Planet Single is on point. The romance is nice, humour okay and sometimes quite goofy, some sad moments here and there and fairy tale-like ending is great. All characters are fine, seem natural and the main duo is very likeable. And all that is supported by good soundtrack and directing. This film is one of reasons to like Polish cinematography.

I like how this film balances humour, romance, goofiness and serious moments, without putting anything too much to the front. And allthough the film is pretty formulaic, I also like that it has more central-European feeling.

While following many romantic comedy clichés and having a rather predictable plot in terms of how it'll end up, this film offers a lovely romantic tale with some unique humour in the mix.

Despite knowing, for the most part, where the characters would end up, the journey to the conclusion is what mattered, as is the case with most romantic comedies. I found myself grinning throughout most of the film, which is rather rare for me, as Planeta Singli offered numerous laugh- inducing scenarios and lines, while being a sweet, romantic plot at its core. The characters, while not entirely unique, feel three dimensional and there are some nice interactions.

Nothing spectacular or truly unique, but definitely achieved what it was trying to achieve and has a lot of heart involved. The thing most worth noting for me is the humour, as hardly any of the jokes seemed recycled and the cinema broke into laughter a number of times.
