Best movie (of all time)(?)
6 July 2022
No pun intended - actually it is what the movie itself is being called in Germany. Title wise that is - so your ticket in Germany would read or say that as a title. Kind of crazy and not nearly as subtle as the movie itself is. To be fair, the movie is not just subtle. It has a few laugh out loud moments. There was one, where another individual could not contain himself and was laughing for a minute straight - totally justifiable.

The three central performances of this movie are so good - and fresh in my memory since I watched the movie earlier today. Sublime, pitch perfect and really walking the thin line as good as humanly possible, without falling for the cliche traps ... that is quite the achievement the movie and the actors are able to ... well achieve.

Humor of course is always in the eye of the beholder and you may feel that some scenes do not work. Or that the jokes/twists (the big ones) are being telegraphed. But that is the fun in watching and exploring how it all evolves (or is it devolves?) ... tightly written and edited, the movie may be about two hours long, but never feels close to a drag or anything like that.
