Helena, a woman in her forties and a recognized expert on marital problems, finds one day that she has got into a situation similar to those she solves with her patients. Her so far loving and beloved husband is caught in flagranti with a younger woman and Helena soon stands helplessly at the door of her new life. Her twenty-year-old daughter Laura wants to be a pillar for her mother but she battles with the traps of her first real love at the same time. Helena´s mother Vilma, a former actress, who applies a distinctive school of life on all situations, offers Helena, to her horror, a helping hand. The eccentric lady has a guaranteed recipe: to replace the disorderly man with an orderly one. It seems to be impossible to solve but there are still men, to Helena´s and Laura´s surprise, with which it is worth diving head first into a love affair. And three quite different women find how much they resemble one another and that if something is to be solved, it requires distance, humor and to lose your head or hope...

Um filme para descansar agradável e com estilo com um cheiro de tragicomédia bem equilibrada. Como substituto de primetime duma viagem de fim de semana à casa de campo devido ao tempo chuvoso, excelente. Vejdělek e Hoffman sabem o que filmam e para quem, e fazem-no com leveza e bom gosto.

A huge surprise for me!! Funny and even imaginative. Lenka Vlasáková hit the mark and Eliška Balzerová was pumping out line after line. My only regret is that Macháček didn't get much screen time. Otherwise, a nice, modern Czech comedy:-)

I was quite surprised by how watchable this was; three hungry ladies on the hunt for some fun. A good gag here and there, and some pretty good acting performances. Everything ended up more or less as I expected, but a couple of story twists had me pleasantly surprised. A fine chill-out.

So this is the legendary crude attack on the already low level of Czech cinema? And I'm still wondering where it had been hiding. Eliška Balzerová forgot herself in the theater and Vojtěch Dyk is becoming the new universal bedfellow of Czech cinema. He’s such a wonderful young man and already an actor! Isn't it wonderful, girls? Combined with the unusually awkward Macháček, it's a real treat. It gets a point purely for promoting the antique shop Bělehradská Street.

A weaker film by Vejdělek, but still better than average by Czech standards. The direction is pleasant and at times even imaginative (the psychologist Helena confesses to herself), the actresses and actors really act (except Jiří Macháček, who annoyed me). The casting of Lenka Vlasáková was a great idea and Vojtěch Dyk - their performances are second to none. No, not even Eliška Balzerová, whose much-talked-about "acting genius" lies only in the fact that she does and says things that no one would expect her to. The script could have avoided many of the cheap jokes.

Definitely one of the best comedies of recent times. "Men in Hope" is quite weak compared to it. The humor here is sometimes quite forced, but mostly it works well, mainly thanks to the female performers who were incredibly well chosen. Eliška Balzerová showed what a lady she is and how wonderfully she can act, but even more surprised me Lenka Vlasáková, whom unfortunately I haven't seen in anything decent since then. The film, which I underestimated, strongly and pleasantly surprised me.
