The Last Serb in Croatia (2019)

trailer looked promising ...

[3/10 · 2 March 2020]

... but the movie dissapoints. not sure if the trailer was done by the same person who did the movie but i would have rather the guy who did the trailer would have done the movie too.

i wished they would have just done a comedic zombiemovie with the backdrop of croatia, but the plot is too specific to the balkans and not very funny i must say. for the same amount of money i would have rather seen a movie that can be watched by international audiences too, like shaun of the dead for example.

unbelievable how much tax-payers money croatian film industrie can burn to nothing and still get more funding.

Mali (2018)

missed the mark

[4/10 · 2 March 2020]

While real father and son dijak indeed showed a great acting performance i have to correct the other reviewer, for croatian standards this was not a lowbudget movie, it had the usual average movie-budget from HAVC but i can understand why someone would think its was lowbudget, i too thought this was privately financed on an indie-level, but it wasnt.

therefore i think they didnt had put enough effort in this movie, it looks cheaper than it actually was.

the premise was good, the execution NOT.

The Priest's Children (2013)

Typical Bresan movie, starts as a comedy, ends as a drama

[4/10 · 2 March 2020]

The only good thing about this movie is the cinematography and the main cast, predominantly Kresimir Mikic and Niksa Butijer do a very good job.

The problem with all Bresan movies is, they start out as a comedy, but instead of getting funnier as the story progress they get more and more boring and so far Bresan runined all his movie by ending them in a lame drama.

He thinks that makes him special and indeed it does, but "special" doenst mean "good" !!!

Nestali (2020– )

dont trust the ridiculously positive rating

[2/10 · 1 March 2020]

These high-star ratings are obviously created by the director, friends and the crew itself, because after the average first episode the TV series went downhill instead of uphill, turned even mystery and has an absolutely cringeworthy corny supernatural end.

However, if you like bad TV series with utterly nonsensical plot and like watching people wandering around for hours, talking pubtalk that isnt even funny, this movie actually might be for you.

This is the second war-themed series in a row we croatians got to see on TV and it established its own flavour of being bad. I would call it General 2.0 because you dont really see where they spent all the production-money on but in defens of General 1.0, it actually teaches you mostly accurate historical facts while this is just made up BS that bores you to death for the most part, or gives you headaches when you try to make sense of how the plot unfolds or should i rather say: implodes.

dont get me even started on the western-music and the joke they ripped of from Predator at the end, oh yes and the lack of bulletholes during the last shootout or how they drove of by night, but than its daylight all of a sudden while still exchanging gunfire. they probably noticed they couldnt use the blue-filter-stuff they used in the 2nd episode to fake a daylight scene into a moonlight scene again because this time it wouldnt match with the real night-scenes from before ...

SO they didnt even bother, but added a dead persons "ghost" instead and ended the series on that note.
