Machete (2010)
How do people not get this?
This is a pure parody, nothing more, nothing less. I don't see why are so many people disappointed in how things turned out to be. For starters, look at the trailer. It really says it all. When you see that Rodrigez is doing it, what else can you expect? It's a story of pretty much every film that Seagal acted in and he's the bad guy! Whole movie makes fun of those films. I agree, this is not a movie that everyone will like, but you can't look at it as if it was an action movie. We've all seen millions of films with a dude (Seagal usually) who's family gets slaughtered and then he seeks revenge. I just can't see how can this film be spoiled. The only reason it should be watched for is the laughter. I think it should be marked as Action/Comedy because that's what it is.
Boj na Kosovu (1989)
Simovic 10/10, Sotra 3/10, Budget 1/10
Let's start with Simovic's play. It's ingenious. You can see that he's inspired by past events and that his feelings are honest. Every Serb should find something to learn out of it... I don't expect for the foreigners to find it as interesting, but Serbs should find every aspect of the script ingenious, no exceptions. There are some that claim that this movie is not based on historical facts... It isn't, it's based on a play, and play is based on epic literature. Learn to live with it. This script delivers a strong message to every Serb world wide... Directing? Sucked. Camera is bad. Budget is as low as water supply in Sudan. This movie deserves a higher budget and a better director. I respect Sotra for what he is, but he ain't a kind of director for this movie, if you know what I mean. If you're a Serb, or if you're interested in Serbian history, this movie, along with Drina March is just the one for you. Try to ignore the terrible camera work.
