Juste entre nous

Zagreb native Rajko Grlić graduated from FAMU in Prague (what a wonder) and in his current film presented a successful partner tragicomedy, which Czech filmmakers have been trying to make in vain for years. He did not transform the environment of a modern better-situated family into an irreverent idyll, as is often seen in Czech movie theatres, but rather into a sarcastic, peppery but not vulgar erotic web, in which small and big lies, betrayals and infidelity play the primary role. Through a slow-paced, accessible form, the film must be suited to a mass audience, but in any case, it will entertain anyone with its vital dialogue and nonviolent humor. A demonstration of a commercially promising item that doesn't offend. And most importantly, Miki Manojlović still knows how to be a charming liar. [IFF KV 2010] (12/07/2010)

It was hard for me to understand this anti-love drama presenting opinions that differ from the usual standard of life and that is why it is so distinctive. It’s a pity that this distinction suppresses any kind of emotion I should feel for this movie. (10/07/2018)
