The Horseman

Pretty good movie, I was very impressed actually. I wasn't expecting much but I heard it had to do with my family (Kopcic) so I figured might as well see some history. Happy to report, I really enjoyed the movie! There is a great plot along with great acting. You can tell that the movie did the most with a small budget and I really enjoyed the contrasts between the different religions and how all these people interacted. Romance, action, drama, and tragedy tied together in a history. It's not a masterpiece but it is very enjoyable. There were certain parts that made me laugh, if you speak the native language then you'll laugh too. The only negative comments I can give is that the lighting could have used some work and maybe the music. Being that I'm a big Movie Score lover I felt they could have done a better job. Either way a solid 8 our of 10.

excellent European historical movie! vivid landscapes, vivid characters and outstanding actors. story line may be confusing 4 people outside of countries that the story takes place in, but very present 4 those who live there. it's one of those movies where two opposites perfectly interact, love and war. i recommend this movie to anyone who enjoys a great plot where you can see how members of three different cultures/religions live together and confront each other. Furthermore, once more you can see how love can surpass the limits and boundaries set by those cultures. hope u get to see this great movie!

Making a historical film in more than recent past immediately makes things more complicated so I applaud the authors for daring to do it. The lack of a big enough budget can be felt influencing the plot but what was presented in the end managed to look good. However, there are some flaws that can't be blamed on the budget, such as the overuse of the voice overs and a fairly typical love storyline where two people deeply fall in love very quickly. The lead actress got hyped over the years and I couldn't completely appreciate her before but here she is truly lovely. Overall, while there are some noticeable flaws in the film, it managed to bring back a genre that is not that often used in local films and therefore it ended up being interesting enough.
