Svěrák and Smoljak are a guarantee of a real treat. I'm definitely not a fan of Luděk Sobota but it wouldn't have been the same without him even with such an awesome script. A lifetime loser tries to improve his situation by following the advice of a computer-generated horoscope. Brilliant! Especially when he's peening a rivet. If somebody wrote down all the memorable lines from Svěrák's and Smoljak's films, it would make quite a thick volume and Jáchym would be a significant contribution. One of the gems of Czech comedy.

Another film by Smoljak & Svěrák and I’m thrilled again. The class reunion, the desperate attempt to overtake the bus, one great scene after another. I can watch films by these two over and over again without getting tired of them. Many of the film’s lines have become part of Czech culture. Simply amazing!

Another treat by Smoljak & Svěrák showing their comedic genius and bringing a whirlwind of great ideas and memorable lines. Ball Lightning, like the title suggests, just keeps rolling uncontrollably, making everybody around burst out laughing. I do believe that there are people who don’t like the film, which doesn't mean I understand that. :)

An excellent film about (at times almost terrifying) rivalry back in the day when Formula 1 was still the queen of motorsport and not what’s left of it today. The film is crafted to perfection. Most importantly, it is believable. It completely drew me into the atmosphere of the time. Although I knew how it would end, I was entertained all the way through and will gladly watch it a couple more times.

I’m giving one star for the ship itself, otherwise, it’s a mockery of all those who died in the tragedy. I can only imagine Cameron thinking: "Lots of dead people. Awesome! Let’s just throw in some famous actors, a love story, and epic music, and we'll make a killing." Hooray! Mission accomplished.

It's interesting how some directors make money out of historical events/tragedies. First, it was Titanic, now Pearl Harbor. What's next? A romantic drama set in Auschwitz?

Czech comedy at its best, along with Marecek, Pass Me the Pen! A film from 1976 that still works perfectly. Time hasn’t taken its toll on its relevance or humor.

This is my idea of good comedy! Probably the greatest classic by Svěrák and Smoljak. There are many films that are being constantly rerun on TV and I don’t watch them precisely for that reason. As for this one, I never miss it when it’s on. I can't really find any negatives.

Doomsday offers absolutely nothing new in the post-apocalyptic genre, but it’s still entertaining. I especially appreciated Rhona Mitra's hilarious hi-tech eye. It was interesting to see the effects of the virus on the Scottish population – turning them back into savage Picts with cannibalistic tendencies. No wonder they have always been perceived as a threat by the English. A fun action movie.

One of the best anti-war films ever as far as I’m concerned. Shiny happy people brainwashed by propaganda that even Goebbels would envy fight to the last limb against sneaky repulsive bugs. The film's main positives definitely include the direction, excellent costumes whose legacy is crystal clear, the endless enthusiasm of all the soldiers, the comedic propaganda shots with chilling subtext, and the great supporting characters of Clancy Brown and Michael Ironside. Verhoeven failed to disappoint me again.
