Ringul

one of films who defines in each detail the filmography of Sergiu Nicolaescu. the good guy with traits of hero. the shadows of the dark past. the moment of truth. the confrontation. and the predictable final.so, nothing surprising. only long box rounds, sparkles from a version of Occident, friendship and revenge. and only problem is the strange mixture of themes, the Manichean definition of characters and the chain of punches. the great virtue - the image. not a bad film but far to be more than piece from a cinematography prisoner of Comunist regime who imagine the entertainment as tool of propaganda. and that is the problem. interesting for its period, today Ringul becomes boring. the noble intentions of Sergiuu Nicolaescu are obscures and the admirable job of Marin Moraru and Adina Georgescu-Obrocea - insignificant details.
