Actor Pavel Šnajdr eagerly accepts an opportunity to direct his first film. He’s not bothered that he has to leave Prague and head for Olomouc in order to do this. Quite the reverse. Things aren’t going very well in his marriage and in Olomouc he gets to live with his eccentric grandma, who shares his distinctive sense of humour and mystification and is thus the ideal partner for him in a piece of improvised performance. However, the preparations for the premiere don’t go exactly according to plan. Grandma doesn’t like being bossed around on stage and the director of the cultural centre has a completely different artistic vision from that of Šnajdr. (Karlovy Vary International Film Festival)

Big Opening is Miroslav Krobot's funniest film to date, but that's not saying much and the bar is set pretty damn low. It's a stilted film about strangely behaving people whose fates you won't care about, and when you actually think about it, the ending doesn't even make sense in the realities of a functioning world (or rather, it would have fatal consequences for the main characters). And the completely theatrical performances certainly don't add to the film's cinematic quality; Pavel Šimčík, moreover, is a really uninteresting driving force for me after his antics in commercials. In addition to that, it is a beautiful example of the outdatedness of contemporary Czech cinema, because making fun of Tourette's syndrome stopped being bearable about fifteen years ago. [KVIFF 2022]
