Supravietuitorul

I do not agree with people saying this is a bad movie. It's true you see some anachronisms, but Nicolaescu isn't Ridley Scott, he couldn't just empty the streets of Prague, it isn't easy nowdays, without Ceausescu to support him :-))). It's true this is not like the old Comissar Moldovan series, but it is not intended to be like the old ones. People who expect this to be like the classic, are generally deceived. It is wrong to expect this as this is not the purpouse of the movie. This is more an art movie than an action one. It tells some stories using flashbacks and insists on the characters rather than the action. This is what I like the most. This movie bring together the old actors and the new ones, the only one who doesn't fit in this movie is Loredana. I can't believe she wastes 15 minutes of this movie. Whatever, ignore her ... and you'll do just fine. Most of all I like the beginning and end of the movie, specific to Nicolaescu's style. I'm a person who prefers to see the good side of things so I gave a 8/10 mark.

If it wasn't for Ileana Lazariuc, Romanian version of Angelina Jolie, I would give this movie one single shiny star.

The movie tells the incredible story of an extreme life and death Russian roulette game in which 'The commissioner of police' can "dodge" bullets.

Just let it sink for a minute: a guy who dodges bullets in a game of Russian roulette, and he's the best at it, for 30 years.

This guy will simply won't die and Statistics don't stand a chance with him. I rest my case.

For your sake, don't watch this movie.

There was an old joke about "Sergiu Nicolaescu movies" - "director Sergiu Nicolaescu, producer Sergiu Nicolaescu, lead actor Sergiu Nicolaescu, and with Colea Rautu playing Sergiu Nicolaescu" - it is now true!!! (Petr Falc instead of Colea Rautu but that does not really matter).

The movie is so awful that it could compete for the title of the worst romanian movie of the last 10-20 years - and the 10-15 seconds of nudity with Ileana Lazariuc can not save it no matter how gorgeous she might be ... (and honestly speaking she is).

The plot is non-existent, the story is totally stupid (basically in that foreign town you find like 80% of the population being of romanian origin, and almost all of them people that the hero knew from 30+ years ago - not to mention that the romanian gangsters kind of 'make the law' in that large luxury town).

The movie is also a huge 'family mess' - the singer was pushed for her relations with the director and not to be outdone we find two Mihaita so it was probably a failure before even starting to film on it ...

second part of Ringul. final parts of Moldovan/Miclovan series. or only the isolation of Sergiu Nicolaescu in his personal universe. it is easy to define it as a bad movie. many scenes are ridiculous, the acting is not exactly decent, the dialogues - fake and the script seems missing. different events in an exotic kilt of clichés. and only explanation is the desire of director to end his work , out of political pressure, in his manner, ignoring the public or critics. a kind of revenge. or only similarities with Ludwig II of Bavaria. not the eccentricity is the problem but the absence of a coherent story. Russian roulette and Zaraza. Moldovan and entire his universe in an Utopian Bucarest . Comunist jail and the past as clay for a kind of success. the fury to say all without create a message. result - a sad film . because it has not identity. only status of jokes of an old stand up performer from different period, front to an indifferent public.

by gosh, i never saw anything more ridiculous! the poor man is a goner... gone are the times of his Miclovan-Moldovan glory! cant he see he has no grasp of his job anymore? this movies is at the level of a kiddies game, who dress up in mom and dad's clothes and make-believe they are grown-ups! and when they have no means, they say: "hey lets just say that we were doing it!" that hilarious attempt to disguise Bucharest center into a western city! the ludicrous Russian roulette, and the anti-riot squad that comes in the end! :))) its no wonder the audiences were curious to see this monstrous piece of freakish idiocy - as the commenter Gheorghe Popescu, aka Pashpix, namely Adrian Epure, says. This stuff is as attractive as a two-heads calf in the funfair. Comical in a sadly demented way...
