Baltu Ciltis

It was more interesting than expected.It was very realistic and I had to be nervous throughout the whole time.

Very missleadind motion picture. Will damage young generations attitude to our roots.

The title of the movie - ''Baltu Ciltis'' means ''Baltic Tribes'' and rightly so, because this film takes you to the lands of Baltic peoples shortly before Christianity took over those territories. ''Baltu Ciltis'' is a wonderful effort which interweaves tons of historical facts into the plot. But ''Baltu Ciltis'' is not a pure documentary. It's a feature film heavily based on true events. I really enjoy this concept. ''Baltu Ciltis'' tells a story of a Danish spy Lars who visits Baltic lands. Lars is of a Christian background, so some customs and certain aspects of everyday life of so called pagans seem quite weird and even scary to him. But as Lars continues his journey, he starts to strongly sympathize with the native denizens and their traditions. I really enjoyed watching ''Baltu Ciltis''. And not only due to the fact that it is historically accurate while still being a feature film. Another aspect I really like about this film is that you won't encounter any exaggerations or impossible twists of plot during this movie. ''Baltu Ciltis'' feels like a real thing. Let me epitomise here. If you are interested in history, this film is a must for you. In fact, ''Baltu Ciltis'' is by far the best movie about history that I have ever seen! Wonderful stuff!

One of the worst movies I've seen in my whole life. 0 dialogues, only the narrator (watched it in lithuanian) who's voice is awful. Even the sound effects aren't timed right (e.g. footsteps). Non-existent, unnoticeable story which lead you to seperate scenes/pictures. Some infamous facts about pagans weren't mentioned and the narrator felt like he was trying his best to make you love these tribes. It's like you were pushed to it.

I am from the Baltic region myself and in my opinion there isn't a single thing in this "civilization" which fascinates me. The fact that we accepted Christianity so late shouldn't be a brag.

Right when you start getting into it the film changes direction.. it like 20 short story's into one long history lesson. It looks cool but I just couldn't get into it.. better off watching the history channel
