When I Grow Up, I'll Be a Kangaroo

As a Romanian, I liked it, I understood it, I resonated with it, especially since I was about 25 years old in 2004, like the characters, it reminds me of those years. I rather (as a comparison) say that this movie is an Eastern European ''Clerks'', in a very good way.

This movie is quite nice in a way. Its humor, typical characters from a hopeless generation, present story which is not happy or funny at all.

Although during the movie i laughed all the way, this movie carries a sad, complicated story about purity/depression/fear/hopelessness of a several young people.

Several stories of several people who live next door, about their dreams, hopes, and fears and the time they waste.

Nothing's good in their hood. All they have is each other, whether they realize that or not. - that movie sets this kind of mood.

This everyday story brought to life by good actors is presented in a humoristic movie, which is sure to bring you some laughs.

It's a fun movie, non pretentious.

Not wanting to repeat other users' comments on the story and its messages, I would just like to underline another important issue: This is the first and only Serbian contemporary movie being absolutely DONE! When I say this, I mean that every each character is a hundred percent authentic, that there is no word in this movie being said without a full background and deep meaning, that every single detail is being detailed to the mark, eg. music clips and MC's comments playing from the portable radio on the Roof, or the bet-house owner "entering" loudly on his PC, or the "Sladjana" cry always being placed at the right moment, etc... There are not so many even A-production movies being so precisely and brilliantly produced. All I can say is "Bravo" to Rasa Andric... didn't expect A Movie So Perfect. I liked his "Munje" a couple of years ago very much so... but in comparison to "Kengur", it was almost an amateur production. Congratulations!

The only thing in this movie, which is not for 10 of 10 is related to money and equipment. That's why I give 10 out of 10! I have watched this movie numerous times, alone, with friends, with my wife and it is always so fresh, funny and at the same time reminds me much of our own reality(as Bulgaria and Serbia are in the same region) and I can recognize myself in the movie characters. The story is typically Serbian, which means unpredictable and surprising. The cast is absolutely great, great actors, very authentic.

This is one of the best Serbian movie of 21st century. Movie is funny and satiric, but the message itself is totaly different. It's about group of friends that live in the same neighborhood for whole their life, without a regular job, money and girlfriend. They are dreaming about better tommorow in their contry and their life. If you decide to watch this movie, you'll laugh for 90 minutes. This is the movie that marked a life of a many generations in Serbia.
