    what a masterpiece this is!

    I really can't describe the joy of discovering this movie. A unique experience that combines art, meaning and an exceptional technique of cinematography. The depth on the characters build up, the unbeliavable script and the absolute rhytm makes this movie a total monument in what the art of cinema stands for. I really suggest you to watch this film. The feelings and the tense which brings to the viewer cannot be described. A true masterpiece from the titles of the beginning to the last scene!

    Amazing provocative cinema

    Wow, I really enjoyed this film. What starts as a close and interesting character study escalates dramatically in the second and third segment. The question it presents is one anyone would struggle to answer, but one the characters are forced to answer. As per the time period tyrants, come and tyrants invariably fall, that is the one solace for poor Gyugyu.

    The question might also be if the characters had not been asked the question the night before, would they have reacted the same way in the final scenes.

    The other aspect of this film which I loved seeing is Budapest itself and the characters and life in its streets.

    So what?

    All I can say is "so what?" for this movie. There's no conclusion, and no proper ending. What did you guys want to tell the audience by making this movie?

    Must watch

    "The Fifth Seal" is a timeless masterpiece that delves deep into the human condition and moral dilemmas. Set against the backdrop of World War II, the film presents a powerful narrative that challenges viewers to reflect on their own values and choices. The central theme revolves around the question of what it means to be truly human in the face of adversity and moral ambiguity.

    The characters are brilliantly portrayed, each representing different facets of humanity and ethical struggles. The dialogue is thought-provoking, and the cinematography captures the stark realities of the era, enhancing the emotional impact of the story.

    What makes "The Fifth Seal" a must-watch is its enduring relevance. The moral questions it raises are as pertinent today as they were during the time of its setting. It compels viewers to consider their own responses to ethical dilemmas and the nature of their humanity.

    In conclusion, "The Fifth Seal" is not just a film; it's an experience that leaves a lasting impression and prompts introspection. Its message is universal and timeless, making it a film that everyone should see at least once.

    Great dialogs, great scenes and all about You...

    One of the greatest newage hungarian writer Santa Ferenc's book is digging very very deep into the human being and the human nature. Fabry, the director chose the best actors, and made one on the best hungarian movie. You have to see it more than few times, to pick up everything. Its all about life, about war, with amazing questions you cant even answer...

    You must read the book!!!
