Tadas Blinda. Pradzia

It is quite good for a lithuanian movie. It's funny, it's sad, it's serious, it's romantic. I like the cast, they match very well. The sceneries and soundtrack are beautiful.

I've seen this movie a few times and still enjoy watching it again.

not great. not impressive. only beautiful. for landscape. for romance/fight/politic/nationalism/myth slices. for the not bad performance of actors. for use of historical movie recipes. it is result of important work of Lithuanian cinema and this fact is essential when you see it. because it is easy to compare it with another movies or remark a not remarkable story or accuse it by to much idyllic manner to present history. but it is a promised beginning and nice clothes for good intentions. and this remains basic fact for a cinematography who desires to define itself. the superb images, the heroic way, the actors and the script are parts of a movie who enjoy the public. and Mantas Jankavicius is inspired choice for lead character. for Donatas Ulvydas - applause for this almost seductive project.

Greetings from Lithuania.

Going to be short here. This is a pretty good movie. Actually this is a very good movie and if you've seen any other movies from Lithuania, you'll know what i mean. The cast is good, and i think all actors did a really good job in this one. And as a lead Mantas Jankavicius, he is OK too. The plot (YES, a film from LT finally has one) is quite good. But the biggest star of this movie is a nature. It is breathtakingly beautiful. It's not "Gladiator" or a "Braveheart", but it's a very well made film, that will leave some audiences wanting for more.

Bravo, tai gali tapti Lietuvisko kino renesansu!!!

Greetings from LT. Worst movie ever - same actors act different roles, cheap horses, historic inacuracies and very bad plot. Don't waste your time, do not watch this piece of garbage.

This was not a great movie, I cannot understand the general rating for this and why it is so high. The lead actor, who is a singer did not do a good job. During his entire performances it was very hard to believe in what he does. I would say, not mad enough, for some parts of the movie and the for the character that he wanted to portray.

The directors work is very questionable as well, most of the major scenes in the movie that actually had a slight chance to involve viewers into action, where broken. The action was transferred and compared to another scene in the movie, making it really hard to concentrate and figure out what is going on.

Also one of the vital questions that a movie has to answer is "why?". Why is it that we show what we show, etc., etc., etc. Unfortunately there were to many parts in the movie when I was not able to figure out an answer.

It is unpleasant to sound so negative, really. But in the final end it all comes down to one question. Would you recommend this movie to a friend or anyone interested?

The verdict: Not recommended.
