Bridesmaids
(2011)

this film sucks!!
In my entire life I haven't been so much annoyed and irritated by a movie! Needless to say, my girlfriend and I walked out after 1 hour (the whole movie is about 2 hours long!) This movie is literally fart-poop-vomit ''comedy" with no plot, poor acting, and no point at all. After one hour (with constantly getting worse over time) this movie reached the point in which bridesmaids are vomiting in close shots all over the place and over each other in the fancy bridal shop!! What can I say? At that point I took it as an insult to the audience, who has been so shamefully cheated by the trailers and false marketing to buy the tickets for a ''romantic comedy". Instead, we got this disgusting and terrible movie which is a total waste of money and time and an insult to the common sense, after all. As another reviewer said: giving this movie 1 out of 10 can be considered generous!

Duska
(2007)

the true masterpiece
This movie is about an older film critic (Bob) who lives a lonely life and goes through his daily routine with not much things going on in his life. What becomes apparent from the very beginning of the movie is that Bob is emotionally reserved person, introvert, and as such secure: with no friends or family he has nothing to risk and nothing to lose, but also nothing to gain on a deep, emotional level. Secure in his little world -- consisting of his apartment and a nearby cinema -- he keeps his daily routine going on for years.

However, things start to change when he becomes attracted to a much younger girl (Sylvia Hoeks) working in the theater. His long-time suppressed emotionality starts to surface and an inner struggle develops. He finally has a chance to find happiness in his life, but on the expense of emotional attachment and vulnerability. The main character's emotional component is depicted through Bob's alter ego -- Duska -- an uninvited visitor who speaks language Bob does not understand and who doesn't want to leave.

Once it is understood that Duska is not a real person, but a suppressed component of Bob's personality, all other pieces of the movie fit together perfectly.

This is a full, big movie, with superb story, acting, and music. The topic is universal and timeless and the way it is handled is brilliant. There are no loose ends -- the storyline is well-developed through the movie and closed at the end. A sincere and true masterpiece. 10/10
