Panic Attack (2017)
9/10
Really enjoyable "fun".

This is Pawel Maslona's first full movie, and I must say I have put him on my 'to watch out for' list. The movie follows 6 different groups, and it does it with bravour. There is a heavily pregnant bride, who is obsessed with having the perfect wedding and the perfect birth; a successful writer in her early forties, who hears her biological clock ticking just a little bit too loud; a gamer who played the wrong person; a married couple sat on a plane next to an annoying man; a bunch of pre-teens experimenting with weed; and a girl who stars in live porn videos. The story moves forward for all 6 stories, and you can early get the feeling that they might just connect somewhat. Its a bit hard to follow the story from time to time, but the story moves FORWARD and no silly jumping back in time to mess up the timeline. The story is really well written, something that is rare when one writer directs the movie, and the other two are actors in the movie. I actually get the feeling that the story could been pulled straight out of the newsdesk @ your closest town :p The caracters are likeable and the actors do a good job. Its blood, sex, drugs, drama, death and a big bunch of black humor. Stamped this with 9 thumbs up. only missing the big 10 because of punchlines lost in translation.....
