Review of Olympia

Olympia (2011)
5/10
Not getting into it
29 October 2014
While there is nudity, don't watch this because of any excitement or something like that you might expect from the description you read. The movie deals with someone who wants to get into the business as a means to get rich (and famous). It's also a morality tale, which is not trying to hide its dislike against that path (if you thought about choosing it). It also mixes social media into the pot, which is a nice little addition to some scenes.

It's showing the shallowness of a business, but nothing else. The ending is even extending that and making things "worse". While the story still has something to give us, it has more to do with the actors giving it their best (again mostly dressed). The nature of the language on the other hand and everything discussed is pretty filthy. Otherwise it wouldn't be able to prove its point of course ...
