9/10
The best independent Greek film
28 May 2005
Warning: Spoilers
Together with Buffalo 66 by Vincent Gallo, this is one of the best independent films ever made. Haralambidis proved himself as an honest cynical, with an excellent sense of humour director. Too bad, he spoiled himself into useless TV stuff and stupid ads. The use of black and white film and the situations of constant laughs make this film appropriate for multiple views. The intention of the film wasn't really to prove anything or to sent a message to the viewers (although it does), however it does proves that a good Greek modern comedy is possible to be made. The director through the movie, laughs sarcastically to all the untalented new Greek sex-obsessed filmmakers who are more appreciated than he is. "Losers" like the hero of the movie are the only people who are still have real life in a self-consuming modern Greek reality.
