A Light Respite from Cinematography Noir and Obscene
12 January 2011
Warning: Spoilers
Let me start by saying that this film isn't a masterpiece like Inception or Black Swan or Citizen Kane or I-don't-know-what, but it comes with a STRONG national feeling, just this time in an optimistic manner. So, the film is maybe encumbered with nationalistic scenes or details, but I believe that people should learn from it, because it show how to treat your nation's sport's team, and at the same time, every single person in that nation.

The plot itself isn't all too interesting, but it is a fun story, vividly depicted by young actors and actresses and there's nothing wrong to it.

I gave this high rating because I'm really sick and tired of dark times and even darker movies and themes, considering Serbian cinematography, and this comes as a respite from all the excessive violence and pain and suffering you could have encountered in other Serbian movies of last two decades. (Not all movies are that dark,ofc)

So, if you want to give your self an hour and half of fun and a good laugh (I know it probably lasts longer, but I felt as if it lasted for 90 mins), do not hesitate to see it...

And yes, I'm very eager to hear from foreign audience :)

There is something behind this movie... But I'm not sure you want to see it...

Warning: Spoilers
Let's be honest, I gave a 5 out of 10 because of the excellent music and background sounds, as well for the great capturing of some scenes. There I stop with the compliments...

First of all, I am from Serbia and I still wonder why did they call it Srpski film (Serbian Movie)... I didn't find any strong connection...

Second, there is a line that one may never want to cross, and the movie crew crossed it. The scenes of sodomizing and sadism may be taken as light offense, but the pedophilia and underage sex (better say rape) scenes are disgusting in any mean... You should have a good stomach if you are to enter this movie's story.

I won't prolong this review. It's bad, bad for your sanity. It's not whether you can watch it to the last scene. It's about why would you do it, if it brings no good.

Seriously, take the Amelia movie and enjoy in happy moments, forget about the Serbian movie.
