The Peculiarities of National Fishing
The film is a delightful trash movie in the best sense of the word; it evokes a similar feeling to watching "The Hero's Tick."
The downside is that there's too much humor related to alcohol by today's standards. But for the 90s, that was probably normal?
But everything else was more than enjoyable. There's also a bit of personal nostalgia here, connected to those places (especially Finland), but regardless. The General was particularly enjoyable; he's definitely a character from "The Hero's Tick."
Owl House (2020, Disney)
I started watching it, and the beginning seemed pretty good in terms of lore, but the first two episodes ended somewhat boringly: some rather childish action with violence. So, I decided to put it on hold for now; maybe I'll continue it later. Or maybe not.
Hilda ("Hilda," 2018)
This is simply captivating. It's also aimed at children, like the previous one, but without jarring scenes and settings, without incomprehensible over-the-top violence. On the contrary, the series is distinctly kind, measured, and consistent. The story revolves around various Scandinavian myths and settings, which I love. The first two episodes are simply amazing, with hints of Jonathan Swift, but even later, the quality remains high, and it's all incredibly charming. I recommend it if you enjoy such inspiring things.
