I'm sure people who voted for this movie were emotionally invested in it for reasons not coming from the art of film making. Because what one gets is a movie poorly constructed, so poorly acted that it feels plastic, with historical goofs too many to be worth listing, overdramatizing to the point turning one stomach over, empty dialogue ... it comes so close to Bollywood B-class movies that it hurts, even having the all musical intermezzos.
In the end it was made, and people from the ex-Yugoslav countries surely liked it enough, but I can't see how this could be ever considered a real movie anywhere else in the world.
I have great respect for the Yugoslav film making, but this is only a shade of that.
