One-way to Moscow (2020)

A cliche romcom with some historical background

[5/10 · 15 December 2020]

A secret service officer is tasked with infiltrating a theater troupe to find out any suspicious activity in Switzerland during the fall of the Berling wall in the 80s. He falls in love with an actress, one of those he spies on, and finds his true self. Everything in this comedy is predictable and not especially funny. Boy meets girl, boy falls in love with girl, girl gets mad at boy but love prevails. The pace seems slow because you just want to rush the scenes to the expected end. It's everything you have seen before done much better: a little bit of Tootsie, a little bit of HBO's show Barry, a little bit of..you get the point.
