Marcell, the rich, successful but unhappy architect is about to have the worst evening of his life. As if spending his 40th birthday at a dull corporate dinner wasn't bad enough, his loser child-hood friends, that he so successfully avoided in the last 20 years, also show up to celebrate. However the gang: Vinsz, the talentless artist, Alexa, the carefree dreamer, Guszti, the overly anxious vet, Jet, the good-for-nothing pest and Adrian, the small-time actor, are not mad at him anymore and ready to rekindle their friendship. Suddenly the evening takes a dark and tragic turn that forces Marcell to decide: let his friends down yet again, or stand up for them and help to pull off the craziest stunt of their lives – sneaking a painting into the finest art auction in Budapest.

Englisch I had high hopes for this movie, especially considering the comedic talent I've seen from Hungarian filmmakers in the past. Sadly, this film turned out to be a disappointment. Despite the creators' efforts, I can't find a more fitting description for it than a piece of trash. The only redeeming quality in the opening childhood scenes was the class teacher. The humor felt so forced that I found myself cringing within the first five minutes. As the plot unfolded, it became apparent that the creators borrowed (or perhaps recycled) every cliché from heist movies, accompanied by humor that didn't evolve beyond the initial misery. And don't even get me started on the romantic subplot, which felt completely out of place. / Lesson learned: If the creators hadn't introduced me to the Indian, I would have felt much better. ()
