Specific movie, not for everyone...
rstud14 May 2006
Some people may compare this movie to Monthy Python, as they see the similarity in the sense of humor. I personally found the movie rather different from MP movies or series. There is even more absurd and very characteristic language included. When I went to see it, some of the audience laughed all the time while the others seemed to find the movie boring, dull or miserable, they were yawing or even leaving the cinema. I was somebody between those two groups - laughing for 5-6 times, finding the concept of the movie original, but not that entertaining. As there is no sophisticated idea, moral or philosophy included, if you don't find the action funny - you just don't find anything interesting there. The movie is rather for fans of "Mumio" cabaret. When you are not one of them - you may be taking some risk seeing it.

i was delighted i absolutely loved It i enjoyed every little moment of it

but i'm sure that's not for everybody

some may even get bored, some may be irritated- these are people i do not understand personally - i could not stop laughing throughout the whole 85 minutes (and later on) although it was not a giggle, more of a smile and hem... satisfaction even? i guess it's gonna be an ever-green for some and a total disaster for the ungraceful rest ;)

is it worth to write 'bout it in English? ;)

whatever - the tag line is absolutely true - you gotta see it two to three times

A Rare Gem!!!

Absolultely awesome!!! Monty Python and Bunuel in one. Funny and damn smart. It's not a film for everyone but everyone could see it and enjoy it. Small independent production with a power of a huge volcano. Absolutely a must see. I was really doubtful cos I didn't expect anything more than some of Mumio jokes but it does give u something more. And really u must see it two or three times. I guess every time you will find something more, something different. Little things, flavor's and jokes. I loved the end and of course music. This was a big surprise...the soundtrack is excellent too. And wait till the final credits are over.....there is a little surprise :-)

If you love xXx-type of movies Hi-Way is not for you. Others will love it

If you prefer brainless mainstream entertainment type of movies Hi Way may not be for you. If you love and praise fart-like-jokes Hi Way is not for you. Otherwise you shall give this movie a try. Maybe even two or three times.

I personally bought a ticket expecting to see rather big disaster on the screen than anything else, but after the show I left the theater pleasantly disappointed! However the movie has some minor flaws (which one does not have them anyway) it is, in my opinion, pretty funny comedy. Of course, requiring some brain powers from the viewers was a bit risky and appears to be not what everyone loves (I've seen people leaving the theater during the projection), but the creativity of the Mumio members, inventing some pretty absurd jokes simply rules (I don't want to put any spoiler here).

And don't leave the theater when end titles starts. There's a surprise yet.

I'd definitely get me DVD with Hi-Way when it hit the market.
