nice serious comedy with surreal humor, 9 November 2005
7/10
Author: snatcho from Sevilla, Spain

Crash Test Dummies has been screened in Seville's European Film Festival (Spain) in November 2005 and was quite liked by the public.

This movie tells the story of a young couple of Romania that travel to Wien (Austria) to get some money out of an illegal deal and how they get mixed with a gold-hearted young security guard and his depressive roommate (oddly the funniest character).

If you see this movie you'll get a balance between humor and seriousness, not being plain silly at all nor overwhelmingly realistic portraying immigrant's problems in a foreign country. It's nice entertainment based in getting smiles and laughs about situations that might have been treated in a much tougher way. You'll find several surreal scenes or moments that really deserve watching.

To put it in a nutshell, worth watching European serious comedy.
