About This Movie

Living It Up (2019) strikes a chord with its mix of humor and the harsh realities of life. The story revolves around Ivan, an engineer caught in the grind of a factory life, seeking a way to break free from the monotony. There’s a certain charm in how it portrays his clever, albeit dubious, attempts to get what he feels he deserves – his hard-earned pay. The pacing is pretty laid-back, allowing for some reflective moments, yet it keeps the laughs coming. The performances, especially from the lead, are solid, bringing a relatable desperation to their roles. It’s a refreshing take on the pursuit of happiness, and you can’t help but feel a mixture of empathy and amusement as Ivan navigates his world.
