One of my all time favorites.

Absolutely brilliant

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

COSTA is a series you can't really take seriously: all stories and events are bigger than life. With PISTA, they took things a step further. The screenplay uses the structure of "It's a wonderful life", with Georgina Verbaan being the Angel to set things right. It is a screenplay with a broad imagination. It shows that it was shot with a limited budget (the green-screens of the actors'skiing look pretty bad), but I enjoyed most of the dialogue.Acting is okay, a good thing that most of the original stars of the movie COSTA are in it. (daan Schuurmans is missing, tough). Silvie Meijs later gained stardom as the soccer wife of of, what's his name.. Rafael van der Vaart. Now plays for Hamburg.

....watch this, this is probably the biggest crap ever produced for dutch TV. The acting is so-so, but the script was probably written in a minute or ten by someone recovering from a hangover. It absolutely makes no sense at all; everybody in the film is wearing winter clothing except for our leading characters who all still wear their summer clothes while wandering outside through the snow. The hottest big breasted chick of the bunch then wears a sweater the whole movie while most of her scenes play in a bar (She's a bartender). Imagine: a hot looking babe working in a filled bar where it's hot and she's wearing a sweater. Dumb.and "dumb" is the best way to describe this movie in one word.
