Count Your Blessings is one of those films that captures the everyday chaos of urban life with a unique blend of comedy and drama. Set in an Amsterdam building, it explores the lives of various families across three floors, using the staircase as a metaphor for the struggles and connections in city living. The pacing feels a bit uneven at times, but it adds to the charm as we get to know the characters β especially the failed singer Karin and her interactions with the students upstairs. The practical effects are minimal but fitting for the setting, allowing the performances to shine. Definitely worth noting is how it presents a raw, honest look at relationships and aspirations amidst the backdrop of a bustling city.
