Mihai, der Rotschopf

one success is unique. Pistruiatu is a good example. but need of success and good recipes gives force to ambition to create clones. and result is far from expectations.same Costel Baloiu and same intrigue. the freckles are replaced by red hair. same adventures, same courageous boy and his fight for Comunist cause. but final taste is not very good. not for repetition of story but for the bad use of dark nuances. workhouse is a character but not in perfect place. the bleak image of democratic regime is not a caricature but search to slander. humor is covered by grotesque. and the solutions to create a new kind of character for Costel Baloiu is fake. exploitation of a big success is not easy. this film is proof. even in case of propaganda enthusiasm.

not good. not bad. not decent. not awful. only illustration of a recipes. a story who use one of the novels of Francisc Munteanu.nothing new. only another film with the same Costel Băloiu. dark, strange, using all ingredients from Pistruiatul but ignoring the right dose. a film from a period. same exercise of propaganda to use the clichés for impose its thesis. but the rigid manner remains the basic sin who explains the chaotic and unrealistic story. portrait of a brutal universe, it is out of the reasonable expectations. and this explains all. a boy and his war. few good performances. and the end of a public success.
