S.E.R.E.G.

Once again, a very bad film was made with a lot of money. A film with underdeveloped characters and a silly plot. It has nothing to do with reality. You feel embarrassed when you watch it. You can't decide whether the creators of this film were serious or if it's all just irony. If they were serious, then there's a serious problem. If they intended to make people want to join the army with this film, they missed the mark completely. Do the creators really think that someone who has never wanted to be a soldier would wake up one morning and decide to enlist? This only happens in an alternate reality, which could only exist in the mind of a screenwriter who has never stepped out of their elite residential area and has no clue about reality.

I spent 7 years in the army .I spent those years in the quick reaction force, that is the second most well equipped branch from the entire army .And i can definitely tell you that everything you see here doesn't match reality . The government and the army is desperate because they suffer all time low enrolling numbers and they are unable to keep the remaining soldiers. The truth about the army is that the leadership is rubbish , communist , coward, and totally unfit to lead. And the highest ranks of leadership posts are ruled by nepotism. This leadership chain makes the army unable to work effectively and keep the soldiers in its ranks. There are more leaders in the Hungarian army than effective soldiers , with this i mean that for every combatant soldier are (at least) two leaders lieutenant and above . They dont respect your personal life , your personal problems , your free time. They treat you like a subhuman . The payment is hilarious , except from lieutenant and above were it is unreasonable high.

In conclusion this propaganda show is more fantasy than reality .

Decent storytelling coupled with mediocre acting. As you get more and more into it, you will eventually forget about the acting and get completely immersed in the story. It doesn't necessarily have much depth to it, so you shouldn't expect some life changing lesson in there, but as long as you take it lightly, this serie will keep you engaged and entertained from the beginning till the end.

Now I also understand that most people look at the serie through the lense of contemporary Hungarian politics, which is such a shame, because it takes away the enjoyment of the story. It's worth to give it a chance with an open mind, and just enjoy the story for what it is: casual entertainment.

"S. E. R. E. G" is a series that, despite its high budget, falls short in several key areas. The characters are disappointingly one-dimensional, lacking depth and development. The main character, in particular, comes across as an emotionless machine, making it difficult for viewers to connect with them. The dialogues are unrealistic and fail to resonate with real-life conversations, further distancing the audience. Additionally, the series seems to be heavily influenced by state propaganda, which detracts from its overall quality. Despite the significant financial investment, "S. E. R. E. G" does not deliver a compelling or engaging viewing experience.

This series had me glued to the screen. It was refreshing for me to watch something with a different style after so many increasingly cheesy American superhero films and other weak, clichéd productions. Sure, the story isn't entirely original, but it's exciting, engaging, and gives a glimpse into local - Hungarian - circumstances. It's not flawless, of course, but I found it very enjoyable.

Several characters are well-developed, there are some good jokes, and it keeps you curious about how the story will unfold. It even feels like the directors paid attention to certain details. I'm not trying to overly praise the series - there are definitely one or two weak points - but overall, the result is positive.

It doesn't pretend to be more than it is, and that's perfectly fine - it's not Black Hawk Down, and it doesn't need to be. Obviously, it can't compete with big Hollywood productions, but I don't think it's trying to, either. It's definitely worth watching, and there's no need to be swayed by all the one-star reviews - which are likely a bit politically motivated anyway.
