Lovey-Dovey 3

What it’s about

Andrey and Marina Golubev have been married nearly fifteen years, but their parents still disapprove. Marina's mother, a refined music and poetry lover, has never warmed to Andrey, while Andrey's father, a blunt colonel, openly wished for a different daughter-in-law. When both in-laws arrive unannounced, the household erupts. In the midst of this domestic chaos, Andrey and Marina find themselves swapping bodies—not with each other this time, but with their parents, leaving the whole family to navigate unfamiliar bodies and old resentments.

What hooks you

Kristina Orbakayte and Gosha Kutsenko return as the beleaguered couple, with Liya Akhedzhakova and Vladimir Menshov as the difficult in-laws. The film was nominated for a Georges award as best Russian comedy.

Who it’s for

It is worth a look for anyone who enjoys broad family comedies with absurd situations and generational clashes.
