Good story, Not enough for a whole film
Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?
Watching it is like watching the spectacle of a class clown at their best: you laugh at their jokes, instigate their defiance, and "ooooh" when they get in trouble.
One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.
Lasting is about two Polish students who are on a working holiday in Spain. When the boy kills a man who is bullying him the pair return to Poland and have to deal with the emotional fallout of the killing. The film certainly challenges the viewer: at one stage it's easy to laugh at the murder scene, even though a man is being killed; and the big question, of course, is should one root for the fit, attractive boy even though he has committed the murder (or, at best, manslaughter) of a homely, out-of-shape man? The film is full of long silences, and the two major plot threads - will the boy's crime be discovered, and will the lovers' relationship survive - are left dangling at the end, but I'd watch it again.
