When I initially began to read reviews about this series and saw the name “Papeake”, it, frankly, pushed me away from watching the show. I thought, "Well, that's another utter nonsense." I didn’t even think to look at it. And it wasn’t until later that I realized that “daddy” wasn’t in that sense at all... and that the show was worthwhile, kind, smart. . .
I looked in one breath and with great pleasure. Rarely did I regret that the series ended. I was ready to watch another 16 episodes!
Now, from the reviews, I can immediately understand who watched only the first few episodes and rushed to write about their impressions, and who watched everything to the end. Who writes "I laughed the whole movie ... funny funny funny and a little silly series" - for sure saw only the first series of 5, no more, because definitely only the first series give the impression of "empty" and just fun film. Then there is a deep thought, and in general a social drama. And at the end of the film, over the last series, I even let a tear go, but what there is a "tear", I just sobbed. . .
The way the series is made, I can say "excellent," "bravo!" Easy, accessible, dynamic... And here is a very clear line: take a step aside and the film would slide to utter stupidity, to comedy, of which there are a million now and which do not deserve two hours of free time. Here the acute problems of our lives are shown very easily, but those who know how to hear and hear... but those who know how to see let see. And I saw abandoned unhappy pensioners, and young people who are constantly hanging out on social networks, and “devish” who cost nothing to be in bed with one “daddy” today, and tomorrow with another, as long as they pay money. . .
And the morals of the “grandfather” are so clever, sincere, instructive, but not boring for a minute. . .
For me, the actors were all unfamiliar – I am not familiar with Ukrainian cinema. But they all played brilliantly!
Well, in general, the series turned out to be kind and very sincere, the actors made me laugh, then sad, then sad.
