Statistically speaking this movie is not for you. However if you're in on the joke, aren't insisting on a conventional narrative on heavily trodden subject matter, perhaps enjoy a surrealist romp every now and then, or simply open to something new? Honestly you may find this enjoyable as I did.

The actors are in on the joke as the film strikes a playful tone even with... the hard questions about growing up. It is nice to see something different out of Poland, as for me at least it isn't a place I have seen much interesting or new from in a few years. Also nice to see a little bravery in film in general, which is becoming rare as hell as the same crap gets made over and over. Solid and worthy.

Rarely comes along something so wooden, charmless and derivative. Why they would waste hour after hour insisting that all zooey dechanel has to do is look wide-eyed rather than a single modemt of acting is completely beyond forgiveness. The little story offered is trite and beyond done to death. Utterly confusing why an otherwise half decent cast would associate themselves with this project, as frankly they're all wasted. A lack of story, no script and z grade special effects were never going to save this mess of an 'adaptation' - why they bothered to make this at all is beyond understanding, or explanation. Just hated it.

The pretentious overly dramatic narration aside, this is a very worthy documentary about new order at their height in the 90s. Probably the best documentary about the band... why did they need to involve bono? Hmm.
