Maybe the story line is supposed to be that every man wants a fantasy life away from his wife? Or maybe the cities are supposed to be 'characters' in the story like in "Crime and Punishment?" If so, the cities are not given enough time or development IMHO.
Unfortunately if it's just cheating on the wife, that story has been done over and over so many times it's boring from the start no matter HOW you slice it!! A loser who tries to have 2 women & fool both of them! People make POOR choices & expect us to feel sorry for them? NOT!! Even though Poland is a 'catholic' country, most Polish women I met were taking the pill. So why did his girlfriend get knocked up? Just careless or stupid--then go over the border & get her an abortion? Then he can carry on his fantasy life with both if that's his choice!
I only got the movie because Budapest & Krakow are my favorite cities in the world!! Butin the end, the cities & their beautiful scenery are about the only redeeming feature!! BOTH cities are places you should visit!
