The movie makes you think about some issues present in Romanian society (and elsewhere) but the director could have cut the film by half (from 2h and 45 minutes ?!) and still make his point.
The weak parts of the movie are the endless car scenes where the driver is just stuck in traffic. One or two scenes like that is enough really. We get it. But no, half the film is shot in the car. Another weak part is the 4 minutes of showing christian crosses on the Bucuresti-Buzau road. It felt like an amateur way of trying to create emotion. Really there is no need for long scenes like this.
The movie is strong with the social satire and it manages to do that in a subtle, non-direct way. That is the only good part that I see. Maybe also some funny scenes with Bobita and excellent acting of the main character.
