Cesta do Vídně a zpátky

The introductory part of the script is really weak, some of the dialogues are unnecessarily over-stylized, and the film lacks a bit of exaggeration and insight; however, soon the Cýlková-Etzler duet gets into such turnarounds that I forgot about my issues with the film. In addition, Michal Pavlíček's music is first-class. I gave it a fourth star from my overall impression thanks to the uncalculated and logical ending, which does not mix apples and potatoes and gives the whole story a touch of authenticity. I had a great time. The film is intelligent and nicely shot, and I really don't understand why the shit books from people such as Viewegh or Nesvadbová are still making it to movie theatre screens... if the script was improved a bit, it would be magnificent.
