After the death of Trudy hundred remain at the end of the village lucrative land with an old house. It fits the mayor and his relative, who have designs on the land and want to build a bazaar. But survivors Hal and his son Adam, they decide that they like villa and fix it, even though it supposedly haunted. The plot revolves around a priest with a bit unconventional and ambiguous name, which comes to the village to act as spiritual. It still has no idea what's waiting for him, what must be addressed and for this reason it is happening a lot of funny situations... (oficjalny tekst dystrybutora)

The rumors didn't lie. My group of friends at the screening also turned white wine into red. Because of the bloody tears that flowed into it. This is not folk entertainment, this is idiocy that has nothing to do with humor because it lacks the basic feature of a film - a coherent plot. More than two hours drowned in acting awkwardness and boundless creative stupidity. They should have given the money to charity. Idiots!

It was only my luck that I was sitting next to the railing, so I could hang onto it for the entire screening. I don't understand the basic situation in which Troška is a representative of a pleasant little summer comedy that the average Czech viewer would like to relax to - given how many downright un-Czech insertions, formal procedures, and ideas are completely in conflict with this basic hypothesis. There are two fake endings, one of which seems like Nudity for Sale, undone by the method of Click, and continuing with an undisguised paraphrase of the so-called American ending from a fictional musical. The parody of the nun is borrowed from the French Troops series. The haunted house storyline fluctuates between Agatha Christie's detective story, Scream, and Scary Movie, with the iconic mask from Scream actually making an appearance. And I'm not even talking about the last straw, about the creeping gossip of Božena Němcová in the style of Sellers' The Pink Panther. If we mix all this into the "typically Czech scenery and allusions," we get a nice pile of shit. Extremely disturbing is the artificiality and emptiness of the whole Babovřesky environment because even other Czech films of this type used to be full of various people who completed the color of the village, while here we don't meet anyone else during the whole film, other than those characters who have clearly defined roles in the scenes. The various songs on the soundtrack also put a smile on my face. I am already dreading the sequel because we were left with a lot of unfinished "plotlines."

"Babovřesky" may be the most commercially successful Czech film in Czech history. I wish it that way. I wish Zdeněk Troška to continue making more films. Not because they are great works of art, but because it is something to watch. The scary moments work, the humorous moments work, this is not the work of someone who knows nothing about directing. If this is the kind of film that attracts hundreds of thousands to the cinema, let it be wished for. Thanks to it, other films may have hope, which otherwise would not have been possible due to a lack of finances. And if not, the fact remains that many people still enjoy it.
