Alex Brubeck, the American producer, comes to Hungary, in order to film Tamás's script, Sin City. Tamás alarms his brothers: according to his promise to Brubeck he must be able to present 50 million. The poetic-minded, dreamy András does not, but the successful manager economist Ákos does help raising the amount. The money comes together. To all appearance, Alex falls in love with Eszter, Tamás's girlfriend. Unexpectedly he turns out to be Hungarian and to have duped Eszter. Meanwhile András kids his brothers in a cruel way. From the newspaper they learn that Brubeck is an international swindler, and he has run away with Ákos's girlfriend and the 50 million. When all seems lost, András's permanent, absurd-seeming five numbers are drawn in the lottery. (Budapest Film)

This crazy comedy was “made in Hungary”, but that’s not obvious on the screen. And it is necessary to mention that this is really a seriously intended Hungarian version of Hollywood comedies. Unfortunately, it is too long, has no idea where it’s headed and the characters and the relationships between them are rather spasmodically interconnected. The film’s most likable character wants to be a con man who has to seduce and “rescue” a beautiful princess from the clutches of a trio of slow-witted brothers. But these brothers are not put in the unambiguous position of fools who have been set up and we are significantly closer to them than to the rakish swindler, about whom we know practically nothing. Because of that, our sympathies are not focused where they should be and the point of the film falls apart. But even so, you get used to the initially awkward humour and if you take the film as an unserious lark, it’s entertaining. A Kind of America is worth watching, at least for the divine housewife, whose main hobby consists in watching soap operas and stuffing herself with space cakes from Amsterdam.
