Teret (2018)
Realistic but something is missing
At the very beginning the story shows us how the region looks and it shows us a scrap of the folks' everyday life. Vlada, a man of few words, got a temporary job as a truck driver and he's struggling to find his way to Belgrade as the bridge on the main road is blocked. There are some small talks which reveal the personality of Vlada but I failed to find some deeper meaning to it since nothing really happens. The first 50-60 minutes of the movie are great, at least something happens and I had the feeling that the story is leading me to some point... but nope. If this was some ouverture to something deeper it is great, if left as is it's an unfinished story.
The Great Gatsby (2013)
Terrible storytelling, great picture and *ahem, ahem* Jay-Z?
Whoever did the picture and costumography deserves all the respect. The story is narrated so badly that it makes you feel like you're watching some teenage love drama. And all that was not so bad until the music started playing. Why on earth would someone do that? You got a story that is placed in the early XX, costumes and pictures are making you feel the times back then and ...tadaaaam music from nowadays. It was horrible, took all that great feeling and you feel like the story started to go in unknown direction. Gatsby didn't deserve this cacophony.
