Sabari Prasad Everyone has unique taste for movies and this one tickled my interest immediately after reading the plot. I accidentally stumbled upon this movie in IMDb few years ago. It has romantic yet not vulgar scenes in it. Confused hero, his hot girlfriends, easily guessable scenes, melo- dramatic climax makes this movie worth a watchNo one would expect such a good movie from such small movie industry. You would be amazed at the way story was told. Screenplay is so clear and no one will find it lagging in any scene.Verdict: Watch this film when you are in mood to watch a feel good movie. It is a subtle rom-com movie which you will enjoy on a rainy evening with your partner.
jwillsm This movie was reminiscent of Groundhog Day, one of my fave Rom/Coms. It was also totally unique and different. The plot was filled with interesting sidebars, the dialog was completely understandable and translated beautifully into English subtitles. It was also very fresh and witty.I loved the actors, as well as the cheesy background soap opera that the protagonist was writing. I liked that all of the wives didn't look like super models. I loved that the story did not push a particular moral that was key to finding happiness, other than the universal concept that happiness is too often something that we seek elsewhere.I am blown away that Hollywood has not already made an English language version. I guess I am also somewhat grateful for that, knowing the propensity which Tinseltown has demonstrated for finding unique new ways to demolish an awesome script idea by committee.WATCH THIS FILM WITH A LOVED ONE !!!!!!!
nwsts Poligamy starts out with a beautifully scripted dinner evening. Thus ends, after 10 minutes, anything interesting about this movie. Thereafter, the plot of the movie is revealed to be an endless procession of new girlfriends for the male lead, each claiming to be the original girlfriend (named Lilla). Lilla's roll in and out of the scenes so fast no one could possibly keep track, and at some point, who would even bother. Eventually you find yourself watching the minutes click by and hoping that further investments of your time will be rewarded by some dramatic revelation at the end. And the revelation is that you just wasted an hour and a half of your life. The silliness of the plot leaves the viewer scratching his head as to what drugs were used to get this movie into production. A good job by the male lead (Sandor Csanyi) and well written dialog are the only things rescuing this absurdity from a rating of 1.
Playbahnosh On first sight, Poligamy looks and smells like your run of the mill romantic summer movie. But there is a huge twist, that makes it one of the most entertaining and intriguing films of the modern Hungarian movie scene.The story kicks off as anyone would expect. András, the mildly successful screenwriter moves in with his girlfriend Lilla after a five year relationship. They seem to live a fairly normal life until one morning András wakes up beside a totally different girl...who also calls herself Lilla and acts like nothing happened. Utter confusion and occasional hilarity ensues. The story revolves around András, who tries to solve the unreal puzzle, all the while thinking that either him or the world has gone insane.Poligamy is anything but average. The story is clever, mysterious and you'll never know what's reality and what's not. The emotions seem much more real than average American romantic movies and the actors are very talented. If you want to watch an intriguing and clever romantic movie with the occasional humor sprinkled on top, Poligamy is one move for you. It's not the best, but it's still pretty awesome!
