Reviews

johnto1-1 I have visited Poland and have experienced the atmosphere of Polski culture and humour and I have many friends in Poland and in UK. I struggled to learn very limited polsku vocabulary, barely enough to survive alone in Poland. Fortunatelly, millions of Polaky have been learning English during the past decade. Anyway about "Teddy Bear" (english name), Polsku font is required to type "MÍS" correctly. The movie is funny, very, very, funny, graphically hilarious, all the actors are comic. I laughed my head off all the way through and watched it twice to catch the bits I missed because my eyes were watering. Early on the motorcar that the is designed and manufactured in Poland, I think it's called: "Trápánt" (please excuse if that name is incorrect). Literally explodes to pieces from the sudden gust of exhaled breath when a man sneezes within it. Tak, visually funny and meaningful. I will tell you, the Pols look upon owning 1 of these cars as the last resort to being vehicular mobile. You see them everywhere but nobody will admit to owning one! I wont spoil your fun by explaining any further. Just watch Mís and you'll enjoy it. Don't worry about the language, it's not a barrier, funny is funny, in any language. You will imagine the conversations taking place. Great Movie Top marks.
ab-320 the thing about Miś as well as other Polish movies of that era is that u have to be Polish to fully understand what the movie is really about. Or u just need to know history of Poland and how socialism looked like. Each scene in the movie illustrates some stupid ideas introduced by socialists in Poland. Take for example the entering scene about that paper houses. There used to be a law in Poland that said that three houses located at a certain distance between each other and close to the road was seen as a build-up area where there were certain speed limits. In the movie,Militia used that law for their own purpose and they could give tickets to drivers even if the houses were made of paper. Of course that paradox wouldn t happen in reality, but for Poles that idea is funny. Miś is a very symbolic movie and it contains a lot of hidden meanings,thus for those who fully understand the matter the movie is the funniest movie ever.
michabbs This is a must-see movie, only of its kind! Every scene is EXTREMELY comic! However, non-Polish people may have problems with understanding it. You cannot fully understand it, if you have seen it only once. Second time is better! And third! And fourth! Etc... I have seen this movie 20 times, or maybe more. And every time I was joking! And every time it was even better... :-) Some of the scenes seem to be completely nonsense, but in fact they are all based on real life in Poland in 1980's. And that's why it is yet more funny! There are a lot of jokes and gags, which seem to be absurd, but they are real-life jokes! You know - it's something like Monty Python in reality. :-)
Joanna First time I've seen it, I didn't fully get the idea what this film is supposed to be about. Maybe a little bit funny, sometimes silly, but in overall, didn't make sense. At all.But when you actually think about how life in Poland was at that time, and if you know somebody ( preferably from Poland ) who will guide you, you'll find this film hilarious and love it. It shows, very sarcastically though, how the life in Poland in early 1980s was, and how people were dependent on each other. I don't want to talk about it too much, but the score is 10 without doubts, and if you're looking for a clever foreign comedy, that's the one you should see.
