Little Buddho (2014)
4/10
Too shallow for any genre
26 January 2018
As much as Yugoslavia had reputation for good movies, especially in the 1980s, ex-Yu republics are doing their best to destroy this reputation without mercy. This was meant to be a black-comedy about the Montenegrins, their tradition of vendetta and their "occupation" of Belgrade. Also, the same story could have been done as an action drama. Unfortunately, it's neither. The story dramatization and characterization are tragic. Characters are completely two-dimensional, and the story acts as a dismal joke about Montenegrins stretched for an hour and a half. Jokes based on prejudices about Montenegrins are too exaggerated for a serious film, and yet insufficiently humorous for a comedy. True, I laughed here and there, but that does not change the fact that this is a very stupid movie.
