Milionari de weekend

Well, after seeing a lot of Sergiu Nicolaescu's(a famous romanian director) I took a shoot in watching "Milionari de weekend", movie directed by Catalin Saizescu. It's basically a simple movie in which 3 guys and a girl get into a Russian Mafia conflict involving some art museum treasure, some money and you can see where this is getting to....I'm not going to give away any of the events from the movie, just going to let you watch it for yourself. In my opinion,"Milionari de weekend" reminds of Guy Richie's "Snatch" with all the close up footages, events mixed up, russians (there ls an actually Boris character here too..), a lot of characters not really defined...Anyway, some of you might know what I am talking about. On the other hand, I enjoyed some of characters, there's some good laughs in there and yes the fact that there are young actors starring in makes me think that yes, Romania can make movies. That's great! what's next? Laters

Yes, I have seen the movie. Yes, I am from Romania. And yes, unfortunately, this is a grade B movie.

The acting is bad - I would go as far as saying that there's no acting.

The plot is (too) surreal.

The script is poorly written - the dialog is terrible.

As a comedy, it is hardly funny.

On the positive side, the only thing that I can think of, is the soundtrack, which is rather good.

Unfortunately this movie portrays the present general attitude of the Romanian society: questionable behavior, questionable taste in the arts. Hopefully, future movies will be better.

I gave it a 4 out of 10 for effort and as encouragement.

Well ... if you look at the movie as an "American clone action movie", than you must be really stupid. The movie is a comedy, "dear previous commenter" ... it is a very good comedy that makes fun of the American production style. It all depends on how you look at it.

The movie is brilliant. The story is great. You can't figure out the end of the movie, which is really really great. And to be honest ... 9 out of 10 friends of mine loved the movie.

I don't know how you can say the movie is the "biggest crap". You must know how to view a good movie.

It is a movie that shows how the Young's Romanians are and their way of seeing life.it is not one of the best movies but it worth been seen. It is hard to understand or to like this movie if you are not Romanian because lots of jokes have the Romanians specific. But we have to appreciate that the new Romanian movie industry begins to develop. The actors are from the young generations and i think that this is one of the best choices that the director has made.They represent the attitude of the Romanian Young. What i liked the most at this movie is that the dream of the young actors came true but in the end it seemed that this dream is the worst four them. So...careful what you wish for....

Yes ! I've seen it ! And I laughed a lot. Maybe if you are not a Romanian or you've never been here, you can't understand the jokes or the thinks that are in this movie. Tudor Chirila is one of the new generation of actors in Romania. He is also a rock singer (his band is called Vama Veche - like one of the small cities from Romania, the frontier between Romania and Bulgaria). You can see in the movie that Chirila is acting like a rebel young boy. Also, there are two of our TV-stars : Oreste (called in the movie Fane Satar) and Mircea Badea (who's playing himself in the movie). They are very funny. The screenplay is kinda easy. But the movie is made for the young (20-30 years old). And with this movie, I can say that this is a step forward for the Romanian movie industry (and here I can say about the visual effects ... kinda new from Romanians). There's much to tell about this movie. But, maybe is better to find yourself. So ... if you wanna have fun ... try this movie ...

In my humble opinion ... a five star movie (from 5 possibles).
