I can’t pinpoint exactly what it was that I liked so much about this movie. And the first ten minutes into the movie, I was worried that it was going to be a let down. It turned out to be the exact opposite and I found myself laughing and enjoying the journey that the characters in the film took. Jonathan, a collector of everything, receives a picture from his dying grandmother. Her last words to him are “Your grandfather wanted you to have this.” The only words on the back of the picture are Augustine and Trachimbrod. Jonathan embarks on a journey to the Ukraine where his drivers are a very funny pair that kept me laughing, even through the more serious parts.
