Cha Cha Real Smooth - Anmeldelser

...en hjertevarm fornøjelse om sjælefrænder og den stejle stigning fra start 20’erne og ind i det egentlige voksenliv.

If his warm and loose-limbed insights into the current generation are here to stay, too, he can name his movies whatever he wants.

...feels like both a fitting showcase for a young auteur like Raiff and a larger marker of how much movie masculinity has evolved: a real-smooth manifesto for the anti-toxic man.

There’s an undeniable charm to this wry tale...

...a fluent and very watchable work...

Raiff’s assured and intelligent writing and direction, paired with the strength of its acting ensemble, make this an irresistibly charming, emotionally rich treat.

...en tänkvärd, lagom söt liten indie med stort hjärta.

...rammer en nerve af ungdommelig nerve og autenticitet ved tydeligvis at låne kraftigt fra bagmandens eget liv.

...Raiff’s clever script, affable characters and naturalistic direction makes it painless enough to sympathize with someone who can’t moonwalk, but will nevertheless skate on by.

...you can’t blame a guy for directing himself to the cusp of stardom, can ya?

...funny, wonderful, and heartfelt.

If Raiff's first film was about two neurotic characters learning to get out of their own heads, then Cha Cha Real Smooth is a tenderly bittersweet story about a couple learning to use theirs.

...it’s made all the more affecting because Raiff has the patience and maturity to let his characters map their own way forward.

...en fin och ömsint film klart värd din tid.
