Bourek (2015)
Enjoyable
I saw this movie on a grey rainy day and it managed to cheer me up. It's not slapstick, apart from a few scenes, and definitely not gaudy or garish. If that's your thing, you shouldn't bother. Also not for people who hate subtitles. If you enjoy films in the vein of Mediterraneo or Paul Mazursky's Tempest, you should give it a try. It's an entertaining journey with lovely vistas and music. Some of the acting is uneven, some of the set-ups have been done before, but the movie is able to capture the Greek sunshine, sea, and good mood of its characters into something quite unique and deliver it to the viewer. If you're open to receive it, you will love this movie. By the way, the end credit sequence is an obvious homage to Mazursky's Tempest. I recommend streaming on a big screen in HD with good sound.
