This is a very funny movie. In my perception, it's like a blend of "From Dusk Till Dawn" and "Mlode Wilki" (a Polish movie made 20 years ago about people of the same age as the protagonists of "Apo"). The bad acting by the young Polish actors, except for a girl named Lui who is quite interesting, actually adds a sense of humor to this movie. I'm a fan of Andrzej Zulawski, so I will be watching movies by his son Xawery, who may not be as gifted as his father, but who knows, maybe with this movie he'll pioneer something like "comedy horror" in Polish cinematography. I cannot recall any similar movie produced in Poland.

Very bad Polish Movie
30 March 2023
I feel ashamed watching this movie, keeping in mind the Anglo-Saxon movies about the youth. Dialogues are very artificial, some scenes are embarrassing with their stupidity. I think Szwedes & that English speaking girl are the only decent roles among those ~25 year-olds who pretend to be 19. The only good thing about the movie it is an attempt to portray the times when Polish economy transformed from socialism to capitalism, and young people back then (born in the 70s) had a basis to dream about being richer than the previous generations. In my opinion other Polish movie set in the high school in the 90s, "Slodko-gorzki" is better.
