This movie had potential if the younger brother's character had a meatier role. After about halfway through the film his character is just used to fill up the set with a handful of irrelevant dialogues. The conflict and chemistry between the two siblings was just beginning to build up, when the makers decided to give more importance to uninteresting characters and situations, thus completely changing the course of the film, making it dull and unengaging.

this movie doesn't know what it wants to be about

There were several motifs worthy of the main plot throughout the film, but the director decided to choose the worst one. Moreover, the characters behave irrationally from the first minute of the film until its end. Additionally, I think that the director has primal kink, which he showed several times in this production. If you look at the main characters, they weren't even written in a sensible way, and the "funny moments" themselves come from the more serious scenes that are laughable with their kitschiness. The entire movie was enjoyable to watch for about half of its duration because it gets monotonous very quickly.
not bad, not for everyone

Vega is controversial...can be described as a good director with great ideas and plot, but his movies are violent and bloody, full of cursing and often screenplay goes to blind street...However he suprises with some classic moments (like Machiavelli's ,,The Prince'') and good choice of cast, often polish top movie stars like Korzuchowska, Stuhr, Zamachowski and Grabowski.
