Tylko mnie kochaj (2006)

Cute Cindyrella story for the most sappy romantics

[7/10 · 18 January 2008]

Easy to watch, easy to love, easy to forget.

If you take it for what it is - a sappy, romantic comedy according to the standard A-sheet, then this movie is quite good - for it's genre.

The truth be told, "Just love me" (Tylko mnie kochaj) is a boy-meets-girl-twice story, where second chances of love and happiness is the core concept.

Maciej Zakoscielny and Agnieszka Grochowska carry the two main roles effortlessly, but it's young Julia Wróblewska as young Michalina that steals the show - completely. An adorable, talented young actress with a long and very promising career ahead.

Also worth watching for the always excellent and beautiful Agnieszka Dygant - it should be mentioned Dygant stars in the Polish production of "The Nanny" - just a tad more gorgeous and without Fran Fine's annoying nasal voice.

If you're looking for a romantic story to laugh and cry your way through, assured it will all end well (as it always does in these romcoms), then reach for the quite good Polish contribution to the RomCom section.

One of the best sitcoms ever, with witty punchlines and comments that last forever in your memory. Can somebody say "Pierre Dzacy"? With type-A characters that might ruin the entire show, the creators have managed to create something extraordinary - a group of people that fit together like a hand in a glove. Could this be better? Yes, it could be subtitled and sent abroad, so that people outside of Poland could discover the greatness of this comedy show. Off course, many of the punchlines would get lost in translation, but still, come on, this is worth seeing over and over again! So, if you EVER get the chance (it's just like Nike)- just do it!
