Perdido na Armênia

A fresh and funny movie about our Armenian culture ❤

I when to watch this movie with high hopes but sadly it did not live up to my expectations nor personal standards. This movie is very boring and personally I would advise everyone not to watch it. I did not like this movie purely because of the amount of foreign language used in it, although using subtitles I thought this was its main downfall. It raced straight into the climax without us getting to know any of the characters background/personal information or history. It drags on a lot and gets very boring throughout although having some exciting scenes I still felt that it was boring and not at all interesting. It was so bad that I had to leave the cinema before the movie had fully ended, therefor I do not know what happened at the end although I probably could have predicted it anyways for their was no thrills or laughs during the film, there for I rate this movie a: 1/10.

Hope you have found this review helpful.

I disagree with other reviews saying if you are not Armenian or something do not watch it. This movie was funny from start till end,I like the culture difference. and the stereotypes.

My grandma is Armenian but I don't speak the language and never mingled with Armenians I bet any person who know a little a bit about other cultures or interested in other cultures will like it. I recommend the movie to any one some may like some may not.

every person has a different taste its worth a try first time I hear Armenian language first i thought it was Turkish.............................

This movie occurs for the most part in Armenia and in Armenian, so subtitles are a given. I have no idea how realistic Armenian village life is portrayed, or how serious the threats that exist in border areas, but it is at least as plausible as the nonsense that the big budget Hollywood movies routinely dish up.

All that aside, the movie engaged me from the very beginning, with characters who were not only driving the movie forward, but who had clear motivations for their actions. Although the plot line was simple enough, it was the characters that made the movie more than watchable. I will also add a special mention for the music, which was neither too little nor too much, and reinforced the point that in the movie, America is a distant land. It is not a criticism of the movie, but at its conclusion I was left with a feeling that there ought to be a novel on which the movie was based (or vice versa) which would go into more detail on the political and culture issues that were only hinted at.

Overall, nicely done, and, of course, Angela Sarafyan as Ani is perfectly lovely.

Funny movie well acted, enjoyed it. Interesting to see other cultures.
