Polish Wedding (1998)
Boring movie missing true cultural background
I've just seen this movie. Polish Wedding was widely discussed in the Polish media and was regarded very controversial because of the way it described Polish society in America. I have some thoughts about it: 1. Movie misses a plot. It consists of several scenes that loosely linked. 2. Writer seems to have very faint knowledge about Polish culture and Poles. Poles don't eat pierogis every day on every meal :-) They don't smoke more than other nationalities. Music seemed to be rather Balkan. There are many Polish names but I don't recognize many Polish features and it completely misses Polish family atmosphere. 3. People kneeling before Hala crowned with garland. What was that? Does Teresa Conelly think that Poles recognized in her Virgin Mary? It's totally stupid scene.
Jerry Maguire (1996)
One of the best movies I have ever seen
That romantic comedy is great. It is one of the most heart-warming films I have ever seen. The cast is perfect. Cuba Gooding Jr. made a excellent performance but Renee Zellweger is the one who stole the show. She's absolutely great. Her sweetness and warmth are unbelievable. The only minus is lack of any special features on DVD. It is very disappointing.
