Where can I start? If this is representative of the Polish film industry, I would say don't give up your day job. Typical battle of the sexes set in a small town in Poland but with all the cliches we can find in the worst American movies. Women know best compared to their slobbering, horny male partners who of course bond by drinking and sports, another cliche. The women use their feminine wiles to try and trick their guys into telling the their plans, men of course use bullying for the same purpose. The main make character of course is a chauvinistic racist Archie Bunker type, his wife the modest power behind the throne. Dumb dumb and dumber!!!!!
