Wražda is the Polish take on a playful detective story, and they’ve done it with a nice touch of humor. It’s got a bit of that whimsical vibe, like Amélie, but with a slightly more grounded, realistic feel. Overall, I enjoyed it, but I was hoping for a bit more creativity and flair, especially in a film with this kind of tone. ()
What a disappointment. For a crime film, it lacked atmosphere and suspense, there wasn’t enough humor for a comedy (a Polish variation on Inspector Clouseau doesn’t count as humor), and it wasn’t much of a drama either. It was a hodge-podge of various genres (even a bit of romance), but everything seemed to be half-baked. I don’t even think the premise had the potential of being turned into something worthwhile. 2*- ()
