Recently i've forgone watching American movies - we got principally trashy, worthless movies including super hero films, cheesy comedies or movies which preferred spectacle instead story.

So it's rare to find a treasure like this, but the double of Linklater and Ethan Hawke always has guaranteed the quality - and this work doesn't disappoint us. The unusual way it was shot (during 12 years with the same actors who were playing perfectly) I found amazing and it made the film more authentic. The story goes slowly forward, but it permits of the elaboration of characters and acts. It's really sensible and everyone can find the similarities with his own life. Highly recommend!

I really liked Ed O'Neil's act in Married with children and he was the reason to begin to follow this title - although I knew I had to expect a presumably much different show.

But it's not only about him. The other actors I did not know beforehand, but they play awesome in this well-written, interesting and funny story of three related, but diverse families. The characters (aside from a few things detailed below) are realistic and ordinary, the followers easily can embrace the personality of the woman who has to rear three different children and do everything at home or the teenagers who only want to meet young girls or boys. I feel Lily's character far-fetched: the makers might have done her as a counterpoint of her "parents" who always has a cynical phrase - but these are often not funny, and as a matter of fact she doesn't do anything else, she doesn't have got any cute moments that we would expect from a 4 year old girl. Furthermore, Cameron is too hysterical (even if it's revealing for gays) which me really annoys; and the portrayal of Hailey's stupidity is excessive, unbelievable.

Albite it's a quite funny production, in almost every episode there is a little lesson, a message: you know, accept yourself as you are, don't make your children realize your own dreams etc. Unfortunately many of them are simple commonplaces.

What could be said at last? Despite of these little flaws I'm looking forward to the next episode. Keep up the good work, at least on this quality!

While I was watching this picture, I asked myself more times: why cannot the Hungarian film industry product nowadays similarly brilliant movies? After having seen a lot of new Hungarian movies recently, the watching of A nagy generáció (English translation: The Great Generation) was really pleasurable.

Réb went to the United States about 20 years ago and in the eighties he returns to Budapest with her teenager daughter. He meets people who where many years before important: his old friends, Nyikita and Makai, Mari, the mother of her daughter who is now Nyikita's wife. Everyone thinks he got wealthy in the USA - in fact he doesn't have anything and try to gain some money by Makai's old father, who formerly invented something. Meanwhile Mari is taking a liking for her daughter who would stay gladly with her.

It's a really emotional story of ordinary people and their common problems. We got an interesting imagery of the young adults of the 60s when they are over forty and about the country in the last years of the communistic era. Famous actors were chosen for the roles and they act excellent. I mainly liked Koltay's performance who is mostly known about their comedic roles and directions. To be honest, I dislike the most of those but in this movie he was awesome as Nyikita, the vicious, ugly merchant.
