Accroché au ciel

This film is intended to all people who lives outside the Serbia and Yugoslavia, especially from USA and Western Europe, so I don't agree with Dusan. Sky hook has nothing with nationalism and patriotism, it has strong emotional component. I say opposite, it is strong, and if you are bored with Hollywood - this is the right film for you. My best recommendation, although I don't like Samardzic movies. Good acting especially from Ana Sofrenovic, Nebojsa Glogovac, Nikola Kojo, Irfan Mensur and Nikola Djuricko. Sky Hook is made for assertive reason and it has a meaning. Classical Serb movie in the 90s with solid social drama component with good humor and dialogs. Last scene is very good, but the end could be a little better (more positive). Also, it has some plastic dialogs, but at the end...7 from 10

The movie is absolutely great...It is also very sad.It is about people during the war and things that they do to overcome the fear from war...It is very sad to watch them live like that during the war..The movie is definitely worth watching...Some people lose their lives,somebody lost a friend,a member of family...some families and ex-friends are united again.War does a lot of things to people,this is the movie how some people in Yugoslavia reacted to the war and how they "fought" against it!!!When you watch the movie you ask yourself how would you act and what you do if you were in the situation of the characters from the movie...you learn some thing about life.WATCH IT!!!!:)

One of must-see movies, all recommendations!!! True descriptions of the real situation of bombing the Belgrade city. Excellent movie with very strong emotions. Serbian mentality is well explained. Defiance and heroism, courage and bravery. At least what it once was and used to be. One line (quote) i like the most: "for 10 years nothing has changed even for the next 10 years nothing will change." In country of Serbia or in whole world? :D I like it and I recommend it to all. This sentence tells all: Ljubisa Samardzic tells of the tragic experiences of these simple people. Their need for private happiness, their wartime psychoses and rivalries, their attempts to suppress it all by holding onto to daily rituals and their dreams. To pull it off, Samardzic doesn't need grandiose imagery, heroic gestures, political accusations or apply any pressure to the tear glands. His unadorned scenes resonate without falling into the trap of dismay.

Being a Serbian myself,i despise all the movies we create cause they're based around vulgarity and meaningless questions...But this movie,this movie is something else...Such a deep,meaningful plot,amazing actors and a great presentation of how times were tough around here (even though i didn't care about that). Only one small little deed,involving a great sport woke up everyone,even those who gave up on life,brought unlikely friends together and so much more.And,it's so much different than the Hollywood movies in so many ways,it's not about the glam and the shine,not about entertainment and humor,to sum it up,it's not about money... I loved it,it's definitely something every intellectual being will enjoy.

I'd just like to clarify something about the "Nebeska udica.". The war in question is not the Croatian or Bosnian war, but the Kosovo war of 1999 (March 24 - June 10) in which Bill Clinton during the Monica Lewinski affair decided to bomb Serbian cities by means of NATO troops. While the apocalyptic situation in Serbia that is shown here is but the continuation of a 10 year long Balkan catastrophe, the bombing attacks in this movie are those of NATO. For the German Air Force (Luftwaffe) it was the first time it had dropped bombs on somebody since World War II. It was also the first NATO attack on a sovereign country. And also the first American intervention that came about because of a presidential blow-job.

As far as the cinematic experience is concerned, the movie is a bit melodramatic, and the acting only so-so.
