I can understand the outburst of the Romanians because I live in Romania and I know what they teach at schools in history classes, so I don't judge them about that. I do judge them about that fact that they are just saying thing without looking it up a bit not just from Romanian sources but also some other international sources from historians who have nothing to do with neither of the histories of the Romanians nor the Hungarians. Because I did it and it shocked me what I learned. The thing is that Romania was and still is mislead by the so called "historians" who wrote the history of Romania as it is best in political reasons and this started in around the mid 19th century in Transilvanya by th Scoala Ardeleana, and later intensified at the end of the WWI and it became more intense in the Ceausescu era. I agree to that that is stupid to think that Hungary will regain the regions they lost, more than 2/3ds of the country, the most important thing is to accept the events as they are because I know that most of the people already did and had moved on from it. I think it would be a lot better if the Romanian historians would also tell the truth about everything and not try to cover it up because eventually the Romanian people will have to know. There was one Roaminan historian in Cluj Napoca who tried to somehow tell some thing that were "avoided" by the other writers and he got severely criticized by many high placed man. My point is that if we hear a new idea about something, we should check it out first and then to harshly criticize it. And about the movie, I can say that it was good, but it definitely didn't deserve 10, but I gave a 10 just to rise a bit the average score of it because let's face it, it worth more the 4.5, definitely.
