Reviews
It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.
Did you people see the same film I saw?
This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
Definitely not a high budget blockbuster, but it still has echos of Wizard of Oz as the twins go on a quest to steal the moon, bring it back, sell it and become wealthy. They come from a small village where everybody does everything wrong; their father works as a scarecrow (!) and goes out to the fields every morning. Mama spends her day plowing a sand dune (up and down) by pulling a wooden contraption built for the purpose. The twins are lazy, mischief-makers who steal, play pranks on everybody and eat everything in sight. When they go they get directions from talking trees, a donkey, a couple of pelicans and the residents of a kingdom where everybody is a hunchback. Special effects are primitive, in a high-school drama class sort of way and are charming, with flashes of hilarity like when the sun comes up, the babies start yelling and the sun goes back down to avoid the noise. The kids are bug-cute, but have the last laugh. Lech is the current President of Poland (was mayor of Warsaw) and his brother is the President of his Political Party. They are 57 years old, married and not at all cute.
