Buntat na L.

Good and realistic modern movie for a life many people ignore. I really like Deo, the guy who played L, so one star for him too.

Bulgarian movies are usually boring, long dialogues, not much happening, depressive atmosphere. Last years we see the opposite - shiny kids with mania for fame trying to be actors. Very made up action, stolen from american action movies, very bad re-played by bulgarian wanna be actors.

The Rebel Of L is kinda different and I like it. It's a human story that you may feel only if you know the reality of the main character he's living in. Sadly, for so many years and after so huge and great history, bulgarians never made any progress. In movies, in life, in anything. And I am bulgarian and not proud with that. Lazy people with zero needs to improve, always judging others and thinking they are better in everything.

You can see emotions from the characters of this movie, well played all roles, authentic decors and real places. Yes, they don't have majestic armors and muscles, but who has them anyway. A sad movie for a sad reality.

It is nearly 18 years after the fall of communism and still they cannot make a single good film. I feel so sorry for my fellow compatriots and for the Bulgarian cinema as a whole.

What can we see in the film - a hilarious plot, sucked from under the script-writer's nails. Utterly illogical and lacking any credibility whatsoever.

A medium-level directing - with very rare moments of decent cinema - the rest is just mediocre rubbish.

A cast above average - with Deo, Gyrbov, Dicho and ESPECIALLY Rachkov making credible characters (and lacking anything to help them in the script) Still, there is a hope - if we can put an 2,00 (on the scale from 2,00 to 6,00) on the previous attempts of post-totalitarian Bulgarian cinema - this one rises to 2,49 - a way to go, but there is noticeable movement above the dead-point. And just that - a movement. No more.

The film is not that bad. Of course it cannot compete with the US, Spanish, Italian or French movies, but still it has its own beauty - it portrays the Bulgarian post-communist era in a relatively authentic way. Sometimes it seems quite realistic, sometimes quite exaggerated, but still it is better placed as directed by Bulgarians and not by Americans or others. One of its main drawbacks is that is too long. It is a story that could be told in an hour. However, I am afraid that the script is written in a manner as to give a clear idea of what is happening only to those who are really familiar with the Bulgarian reality. Most people from other countries would probably wonder what it is all about. And I think this is exactly why our films could not compete with the foreign movies. They are too badly directed and the script is so narrow-minded that they speak only to Bulgarians...
