About This Movie

Netto, directed by Robert Thalheim, is an interesting blend of comedy and drama that dives deep into the relationship between a father and son. The film’s tone has this raw, almost gritty feel that captures the struggles of both characters, especially the unemployed father who’s stuck in a spiral of alcohol. You can really sense the tension between their contrasting personalities and how they navigate their fractured life together. The pacing feels deliberate, allowing moments of reflection between the laughs. It’s the performances that really pull you in; they feel authentic and relatable, making the characters’ journey all the more poignant. Practical effects are minimal, but the setting itself is a character, adding to the film’s overall atmosphere. A distinct piece in early 2000s cinema.
