A comedy classic, 19 July 2002

Three middle-aged go for a vacation into the mountains with their children.
How will they cope with their youngsters every-day needs without their
wives? It seems like a many times told story but the way Polednakova
approaches to the subject is simply charming. It truly is one of the most
original sit-coms I've ever seen. Every character has got all the
ingredients of a common man you meet on the street. They are not just
one-dimensional comic figures (as it happens in most of the sit-coms).
Polednakova will introduce every one of them in an inobtrusive way through
many hilarious scenes. And you will love them with all their good and bad
sides. Also the actor's performance is wonderful - it seems like they are
not acting - they are living it through. Especially Julius Satinsky is
cute.
The film was awarded as the best Czech comedy ever made. That award is
rather contradictional since the comedy is the Czech top genre - but it
surely is one of the best. It just doesnt have a blind spot - there is
always something funny happening there. And the humor is built on the swift
dialogues and original situations rather than on various odiousnesses which
so often replace the humor in the modern movies.
I highly recommend this movie to everyone who likes the situation comedies!
