Wow 
I thought you gave up on watching films altogether, you know with kids, work, banning and stuff ...
How did you like it?
Yeah, the banning did take up a lot of my time. But now with the new forum everything is automated, so I can take a little time off once and again, while the computer does the banning for me.
I actually liked the film quite a bit, even though I found it extremely uneven. The first 15-20 minutes were unbearably bland, and seemed to go on forever, and I was going to turn it off and watch something else a couple of times. But I persevered.
It got much better in the middle section and then something went wrong again towards the very, very end, when again it became completely uninteresting. But I think it's well worth watching for two scenes: the
absolutely brilliant scene with the (homeless?) madman and the excellent flamenco lesson (this latter one is in a completely different category, of course). The driving lessons are not bad either (they are what made me continue watching the movie), but the political angle and the cheap psychology does give them a slightly banal ring. Still, they're great fun, and I can't imagine them done any better in terms of acting. Speaking of which, there's generally lots of first rate acting in the movie. One of the very rare cases where I can't think of someone ruining a scene by their acting - from lead roles to supporting cast, everyone does good work (some are excellent, some are just good, but nobody ruins anything).
