Der Eiswald

Good film absolutely DESTROYED by appalling American dubbing. Trying to watch in Italian with English subs is just as bad. Half of the lines are completely ignored and your left having to fill in the blanks.

No pun intended - sometimes when you are new somewhere, you may not know how things work out. Same is true for our main character - all grown up from the first time we see him in the beginning. This mystery thriller may not be everyones cup of tea and it really is not fast paced (which already is on the losing side with some viewers because of that). So if you watch the first 10 minutes and are still interested .. watch on, otherwise do not.

The acting is good enough, but there may be some choices (more character based) that may be tough to swallow. The movie makes sense overall though, don't let (character) decisions cloud that. Decent enough movie, for those interested in the genre.

For the masses this movie should be like stepping into a bear trap. I just lost my foot. But I saw it coming. It seemed that I just spent two hours taking a look at some photos. It really lacks some action, sometimes it was like I was watching a kind of drama or romance. Well, I guess it is high time for me to come back to those american detective series.

I am amazed at People giving this Movie Terrible ratings! Are you kidding me? I was hooked from the first 5 minutes into this thought provoking story line. This Movie had it all. A beginning leading up to the beginning. The Middle, 3/4 til the end and then the ending.

Each individual Actor in this Movie were mesmerizing. These Actors were ALL important in this Movie then add in their excellent acting skills.

I gravitate towards any Movies that are NOT American Movies. Yes I am an American but because I have been groomed from a very young age to appreciate Perfection in the Movie of my likings. It is the Actors that make the Movie. Not the Movie that makes the Actors. I firmly believe this. Now for myself I am 63 years old young. 98% of American Movies and Actors bore me to tears!!! I can predict, figure out the Movies entireity from the beginning. So for me I welcome foreign Movies. Korean Movies are usually my go to Movies, I always always enjoy them. They put their Hearts and Souls into ALL of thier productions. Plus Korean Actors are the best of the best. I gravitate towards European Movies as well. Then Irish/Brit, etc.

I rate this Movie in every aspect of a Winner of a Movie a "Perfect 10". I simply cannot understand the persons that said more or less this was la bomba!!!! No way, No how. Solid Acting, terrific meaning,Breath taking scenery......Please do not think twice,,,If you are picky as I am you will be glued to your TV screen as I was....

But not for all audiences. It takes place in the wolderness where demons from the past emerge among the mountains. Events related to the war in Bosnia. Emir Kusturica is awesome in thuis underrated Italian flick, very beautifully photographed and acted too. It should have been more or best released. I recommend it.
