Folks... I hadn't laughed so hard for quite a while. Honestly.
This Netflix movie, starring Collin Ferrell and the now grown up Rachel McAdams, is a crazy cocktail of music comedy, parody, satire, and sick fun... plus a good amount of real elements from the pompous, kitsch, posh world of the Eurovision song contest. You could hardly resist laughing your lungs out!
A rural, almost redneck duo from my dear Iceland with the megalomaniac name FIRE SAGA walks the whole road from the local pub to the grand scene at the Eurovision final, and all the grotesquery is well garnered with a sweet love story. The whole thing, the way the scenes are made, the costumes and artwork, everything makes you giggle! You get infamous specimens like Concita Wurst, the overweight Israeli songstress Netta, a Russian gay singer Demi Lovato, even the former Agent 007, Pierce Brosnan, who's a conservative father (and an Icelandic fisherman!), and also the extrovert youngster lars who dreams to pursue a pop star career.
Granted, usually Will Ferrell's humor is not very well received by ladies, but this time even I laughed quiet a lot. The genital references were more contained than usual (but you couldn't do without them of course), there was no excess of nude scenes, but there was a lot of music - in fact the music has been specially composed for the movie, and it is great.
I've seen the "serious" critique panning the film overall, some calling it "Netflix's most ridiculous film", but I, being a melomaniac myself, would recommend that you give it a shot. Whether you'll keep a poker face after all the weirdness, or maybe feel a bit intellectually cleansed after the experience, is up to you. ;)
