The movie is probably the worst-rated Greek production ever (1.6/10 at the time of this review), so it felt wrong to lack a review.
The movie is the best example of a box-ticking exercise. It has a scenario, a director, actors, and a budget, so we can call it a movie. If everything was randomly chosen, the film would have been better. Replace the scenario with computer generated text, replace some actors with animals, and the film would have been more interesting. You can watch the scenes in random order without noticing any difference. The product placement is so flawed that I would prefer to watch an actual unskippable YouTube ad instead. The puns would have been fresh if we were in a Greek cafe in the 60s.
If you want to find something positive to mention, I would have picked the racism and xenophobia that this movie about immigrants blasts from the very first scene. It's positive as it tries to relate with its core audience, the only effort the director seems to make. I think the peak of the movie is the lines about how corrupted politicians ruined the country played by an actual politician later convicted for corruption. There is also a mention about how the corrupted Greek Film Centre does not fund such patriotic movies and instead pours money into the same directors, like Lanthimos. That was funny to watch, although I assume the director wanted to sound like a protest not a joke.
Omiros Efstratiadis wanted to break his record with Roda tsanta kai kopana and Roda, tsanta & kopana 5, but both films have achieved a higher score so far.
This review is an example of the sunk cost fallacy. I felt that I wasted my time watching the movie, so I wasted even more time for writing this review. If you have wasted your time reading this review, I am sorry.
