Galimatias, Indeed - Total Mess actually.

[Pitus · 1/10 · 6 January 2007]

As the first part of this movie was actually cute and watchable, the second part is nothing but an attempt to milk the cow... It's a total mess, not even funny - sad in fact and makes no sense at all - even my kids walked out commenting that this is plain stupid.

It's like the director had no concept of what this part should be about, had some ideas of what might be funny (actually, more like an idea of what would convolute the story so bad it could live up to its title), then tried to put it all together...

The ending ... well, it's most likely intended to set-up the stage for part 3 - thank God there wasn't one ;)

Don't bother wasting your time on part 2. If you haven't seen part 1 yet and have time to spare, go ahead and watch part 1, it's not too bad.

Even bigger mix

This movie definitely keeps up the level of its predecessor thanks to the same actor crew and overall similarity. The comedic features are again focused on very complex twists resulting from simple coincidences. The other funny parts result from characters traits i.e. Zenon is very impatient and difficult to convince traditional peasant, Marian is an alcoholic playboy and his mother is ignorant about her grandson Piotrek but overprotective about her poodle. The actors again did excellent job and Jerzy Turek and Małgorzata Lorentowicz are the best again. This part like its prequel never gets boring.

Plot:Katarzyna and Pawel got married and their parents expect grandchildren. Zenon, Katarzyna's father does not want to give his land to them before that. Initial plans of Pawel to raise a sheep farm fail and Katarzyna is expelled by Zenon again after Zenon argues with Pawel two times. Meanwhile Wolanskis try to sneakily get help from Katarzyna to take care of their son Piotr when they go on a scholarship. Katarzyna in return wants to get back to the university. However at the same time Pawel is going to Netherlands. Piotr and Grandma Wolanska and her poodle arrive to the Katarzyna's home. She invents an idea and convinces her mother to take care of them as tourists unbeknown to Zenon, so she can go with Pawel abroad. Unfortunately, the poodle is released from the room when its during estrus. Grandma Wolanska is very shocked and runs with the dog to Warsaw leaving Piotr. Zenon's wife tells him where did she find them to his anger. Although in the end Piotr is returned home, another argument breaks out when Barbara finds Marian with Katarzyna at home having a party. Marian is thrown away and stays in Katarzyna's home. When Barbara retrieves him later she discovers Marian is flirting with Pawel's friend. The chances for Katarzyna's studying are gone as the movie ends when Katarzyna finds out she's pregnant. She reunites with her parents who are very glad of the family growing bigger.
