Crna svadba

Something great coming from Serbia, a whole new myth to be unpacked: an ancient black magic that is not voodoo or western christian narrative. This is better, more sinister. I have only seen 3 EP so far, but can't wait for the next one. Storylines, separated by decades, characters, eary atmosphere and Serbian dark humor really make a gem out of this show. Makers of Crna svadba (Black Wedding) promise awesome climax. This will be delicious bite for fans of different genres. Watch!

After i watched show and saw its rating, i felt need to jump here and give contribution in correcting it. Clishe after clishe, poor acting, awful dialogues, plot from American B movies, lots of obvious stupidities (agent of "Bezbednost" for example), needles sex scenes, and so much more. Good first three episodes, good overall idea, great opening titles, good cinematography, great music and (occasionally) directing. But not enough for 8.

Misitical topics, faith and complex story about dark but compelling characters. Slavko Stimac as an antihero is just amazing. I just couldn't imagine him in a role like this, but after watching 4 episodes of Crna svadba I can say that his performance is one of the best I have seen in ages!

A lot of scenes that doesn't make sense at all trying so hard to make you wonder. Poor story development after episode one or two (Jumping from old folklore magic, which was interesting, to eternal battle between good and evil forces? Really? Attempting to revive terrible Russian mess 'Night Watch' into tv show?).Horrible acting that even if you replace actors with robots would make it look more realistic.

I had high expectations for this one, but Firefly production once again had proven me wrong.

Friendly note to production crew: please stop producing things like this because it won't work at all. You should maybe stick to social dramas because that's the only thing that could maybe work in Serbian cinematography.

The intertwining of faith and magic is done masterfully. WOW! This show can go side by side with the most watched foreign series from HBO and Netflix. Crna svadba is the perfect show in every sense.
