Hét jó barát találkozik azért, hogy együtt vacsorázzanak. Az este folyamán egy furcsa játékba kezdenek: úgy döntenek, hogy az asztalra rakják mobiltelefonjaikat és bárkinek is jelez a telefonja, együtt hallgatják meg a kihangosított hívásokat, együtt olvassák el a bejövő SMS-eket, és együtt néznek meg minden beérkező képes vagy szöveges tartalmat. Mivel barátokról van szó, úgy hiszik, hogy ismerik egymást, de ez a játék váratlan titkokat is felszínre hoz... (Cinenuovo)

Kiváló beszélgetős film, amely egy egyszerű, de eredeti ötletre épül, néhány meglepő fordulattal tarkítva. Igaz, Woody vagy Polanski egyedi szerzői poétikát adott volna neki, de kell az nekünk egyáltalán? A hagyományos forma sikere annál inkább értékelhető, ha "csak" találó szereposztás, lendületes tempó és ütős társadalmi pillanatok állnak mögötte. A 17 éves lány telefonhívása érzelmes, emberi csúcspontja a filmnek. Fülbevalók - a szatirikus komédia csúcsa. És egy szép la-la-land befejezés. Egy amerikai remake, amely itthon valószínűleg több, mint 68%-ot fog elérni (Bateman, Sudeikis, Vergara és társai?).

The Italians are pulling a decent Ace out of their sleeve at the beginning of the year and I dare say already that in the comedy/drama genre this will be hard to beat this year. This is probably the first comedy that is smart, based only on dialogues, without bad words, without teenage humour, without nudity and without awkward situations that I liked ! :D At first I was worried about how the film, set entirely at the table of one dinner between four couples of old friends, would turn out, but the play or the idea is brilliant in itself, that the fun is downright taken care of. The idea of me laying out my cell phone on the table amongst all my friends and any call or text that comes in will be seen by everyone, I probably wouldn't be comfortable with that either.Towards the end the film escalates in such a way that the comedy eventually becomes a nerve-wracking thriller. Very funny, smart, twisted, original and perfect. 100%.

Hypocrisy is a trait possessed by almost everyone who dines together in this movie. What seems to be fun at the beginning changes with time into a brutal emotional ride that just doesn’t end. An exemplary premise reflecting the present times where people cannot live without their smartphones and while walking at the sidewalk, they spend more time looking at their screens than that sidewalk. With this dialogue-based movie the Italians did the best they could.

Perfect Strangers starts as a light and enjoyable relationship comedy about a group of long-time friends who, along with their partners, come to a party wanting to forget their worries, reminisce about the past, and enjoy the lunar eclipse undisturbed by their kids. Playful banter and a relaxed atmosphere lead to a foolish idea of revealing their privacy (after all, they have nothing to hide from each other) and conducting their phone calls with the speaker on. The voices of dissenting parties are silenced - those who disagree have something to hide. Soon skeletons start coming out of the closet, characters are exposed, and communication begins to dangerously falter. Positive emotions are replaced by distrust and bitterness. The comedy subtly becomes a moralistic drama. It is accurate and true to life, but I feel that for this film it applies more than to others that you need to have some life experience to fully enjoy it. It is simply a film for the middle generation who knows what a mid-life crisis is. I liked both the comedic and dramatic aspects, and I also appreciated the civility of the performances and the fresh quality of the actors. It is a movie that I will definitely come back to in the future. Overall impression: 90%.

A very current subject treated in a very likeable way through a conversational dramedy that can be very urgent at times, but also maintains an evaluative distance through a number of light elements and deliberately exaggerated escalation. The final twist may not be worth thinking about or taking seriously in relation to the overall message, but I really enjoyed the course of the film, got to know the characters very quickly, and it flashed a minimal warning light in my head that I've seen this before somewhere else... 75%
