it was almost funny
LetsReviewThat269 October 2022
This film tried to be something it was not. It was a comedy but it was not funny, atleast fully. Walter is just a normal guy but after thinking nuns dont like heavy meatle, he is forced to move to the contryside to get away from any stress. As any slight noise could kill him. But of course poor walters quiet existance is rumbled by some new neibours. They are both loud and obnoxious but with comedies it all turns out in the end. The acting was ok in this film. Wouldnt say it was the best but given the genre all the cast members did well. I wish there were more funny scenes but I did have a few giggles while watching. Overall still an ebjoyable film.

Incoherent, but funny
kazerniel29 October 2022
The film has plenty of humorous scenes, but it never really coalesces into a coherent whole.

It has both a very childish sense of humour (with cartoonish CGI!), but also long scenes full of sex-related references and banter. So it feels like the film doesn't really know what kind of audience it tries to address.

While it does a good job of painting both conflicting neighbours as likeable and unlikeable at the same time, the characterisations and character dynamics are completely subject to Rule of Silly. Two character can be swearing at each other in one scene, and have a friendly chat in the next.
