Stuck with a Perfect Woman

I could probably complain a bit that the film’s overall positivity about everything reminded me of Kameňák or Babovřesky. But I felt so great while watching the movie that it would be a pity to bring it down to average with a single sentence like this. You see, Ondřej Vetchý once again puts in a great performance and Petra Hřebíčková’s character provides him with great company. And on top of that, the remaining actors create great caricatures and elevate the good-hearted atmosphere of the film even higher. So, I walked home from the cinema with a crazy-man’s smile on my face, which didn’t disappear even on the next day. That’s the kind of impact this movie had on me. (01/11/2016)

With this movie, a lot depends on whether you like Petra Hřebíčková. Because while Ondra has a lot of space here (and he's good), it's more her film. She's the one talking, laughing, hysterical... she just rocks. And the story isn't boring either: you snicker sometimes, laugh sometimes at the typical, different features of men and women, and finally leave the cinema with a pleasant feeling, without chaos in the head. A Czech romance that is definitely worth watching. 3.5 stars. (20/01/2017)

The opening exposition with Vetchý as gravedigger is faultless. Of course it soon slips into a predictable romantic comedy with a lightning change into a compatible partner, but it still has style and really funny humor. For a Czech production, this is a massive success and so I’m giving it more stars than I might otherwise. I’m doing it for the kids. (19/10/2018)

A pleasant romantic comedy, whose lack of annoyance is literally exceptional by domestic standards. The main roles are played by the beautiful Petra Hřebíčková and the super-sympathetic Ondřej Vetchý, in other roles Miroslav Táborský, whose story about his resemblance to his great-grandfather was so well punctuated that I burst out laughing. The plot isn't surprising at all, but it's nice to watch and I'm glad that it's still possible to make a film about people from a village and people from the city without making complete idiots out of one or the other. I gave it a fourth star for this. (01/04/2017)

Pendant les dix premières minutes, je me voyais déjà arrêter de regarder et qualifier ce film de navet. Heureusement, il en est finalement ressorti une comédie normale à trois étoiles avec ses bons et ses mauvais côtés et avec son final à l’américaine. Hřebíčková et Vetchý vont bien ensemble, Langmajer interprétait déjà ce genre de rôle pour la deuxième fois en 2016 et Ruml et Svarinska sont un beau message pour les cinéphiles. On ne peut pas parler de comédie de l'année, mais elle ne manque pas de divertir. (06/03/2017)

There was a lot of major and minor nonsense, but the truth is that I had some good laughs, and since I dabble in scale modeling, the scene with the painting of the plane was hilarious. (01/01/2020)

A relatively pleasant Czech romantic comedy, which plays on the fact that there are quite crazy characters and good performances along with it. Ladies will enjoy it, but it didn't offend me in any way. It wasn't an outright laugh, but there were some good jokes, plus the film is pleasantly silly. (20/03/2017)
