Boys Don't Cry

Entire film wasn't brilliant. Boring at moments, banal structure, but still worth to watch it! Why? Becuose every kids in Poland know that "kiedys chlop zakladal babie chomato i oral nia pole!" or "chcialbym byc jak Tony Halik". Polish teenage society is cruel, so I also MUST know few lines from such films as "Killer" or "Poranek Kojota" to survive.

I admit that many jokes are hard to understand, if you are not polish.

Laska (with his ganja-mutated voice) is the best! Typical teenage from Warsaw! Dublicate of my school-friends...

10 for Laska's character, 6 for all the rest. Average: 8.

One of the best comedies of the late 90s. It is a satirical look at the gangsters of Poland and some teens who get into a mess with them. The humour is black, sometimes vulgar, and always hilarious. There are some "inside jokes" here that are not so simple to understand outside of Poland, however most of the humour is universal. Most of the actors belong to the new generation of Polish actors, and all of them are very talented.

The plot line is familiar: nice young guys get involved with prostitutes and gangsters, rough and tumble action follows but with a lighthearted touch, and all ends well. While derivative of RISKY BUSINESS and rougher, more recent fare from Tarantino and Guy Ritchie, this movie has a touch that is all its own. I'm not Polish and don't speak the language, so I'm sure I miss a lot of the jokes, but on its subtitled face this movie still exerts a certain charm; it seems to be more than the sum of its parts, and left me feeling oddly elated.

Ostensibly the hero is Maciej Stuhr as the music student, and the meatiest role goes to Cezary Pazura as the gangster, but to me the heart of the film is Michal Milowicz as the bumbling son of the mafia boss, a wanna-be tough guy who hides his dachshund from the real tough guys, who expect a pit bull; I'll be watching for more of his movies.

I would consider this one of the best polish movies ever made, it is funny and there are plenty of good jokes in it. I would recommend it to everyone, who likes good comedy and of course who speaks polish, as I assume that there is no dubbed version of it so far!

There is a very good plot, and a unique love story, then there is crime, and gangsters. So I have expected nothing from this movie but I was amazed by it! It takes place in a time in which Poland is gaining more and more wealth and of course where there is new wealth there is also crime.

The best actor in this movie is Cezary Pazura, who plays a gangster! I would even say that this movie is a polish adaption of the Quentin Tarantino hit Pulp Fiction. However it has its own unique character, which is displayed in a very funny way! A must see!

Naprawde ten film jest super!

One of the best comedies. It shows very interesting people: gangsters, but from an other side, they are shown from the man within them. The story is simple, but good enough to hold the characters, which are one of the most interesting ones, I've ever saw.

The dark pictures, the music, everything makes this movie to be satiric and funny together. The story follows the main character, who is stupid enough to get with "gangsters", he has nothing to do with them, expect that they have something with him. Everybody like to save/kill him, but these people have bigger problems with themself.
