So sad, that millions of Euros were used from hungarian public funds to create such a motion picture filled with lies and inaccuracy about a hungarian historical event during 2006.

It is also a shame that both the director and the director of photography are not hungarians which is to show that this is a political propaganda movie that is fiction. Hungarian filmmakers are very known in the movie industry with couple of Oscars to confirm it but this movie is so overrated trying to convince the hungarian audience that it is a non-fiction.

I was there in Budapest during the 2006 political demonstrations and after watching the movie for free of course I had that terrible feeling about how the current hungarian political party in power is using all means necessary to brainwash hungarian people by creating propaganda movies.

In Hungary at the moment the government is an autocratic regime trying to silence all opposition parties and using every tool to stay in power. This movie also shows that it has nothing to do with artistic filmmaking but to favor the hungarian ruling government by creating a propaganda cinema!!!

I have watched two movies/series this week. One is this movie and another or a series. The amount of effor went into this movie is horrible. The acting is horrible and feels like I am watching a Brazil soap opera the After watching an animated show about sibilings this is still worst. Go watch Arcane from Netflix! It's great compared to this dump!

The acting is terrible, the script is horrendous, the whole thing was made with russian money to prop up the fidesz regime for one more term so they can finally completely turn our country in to a dictatorship. Funny how this was shown for free in movie theaters and the turnout was way below expectations, so now they conveniently release it on state TV, which still spews verbatim russian propaganda, just a month before election. On the same state TV that will not give any time for opposition politicians, but will always gladly show orban roll around acting like he's doing good for the country, meanwhile he and his cronies managed to steal so much that the country is nearing economic collapse. They keep beating the drum about how we live better than ever before. I guess that's why they had to mandate a price-freeze on basic groceries. Inflation is getting to a point where people are having trouble affording groceries.

I've never seen something more disgusting in my life, and I'm ashamed to be a hungarian.

Spending so much money on such a bad movie is a shame. Utterly boring, horrible acting and a very chaotic and unrealistic script makes this movie a waste of time.

A movie can be carried by three things: a good plot, amazing visuals or interesting characters. This one had none of it, except for historically mostly accurate sets, which really stood out in this absolute waste of data.

The plot itself is mostly based on a conspiracy theory, and the characters are either the most goody-two shoes boyscout characters, while the antagonists are only fueled by the power of pure evil. I'm not even kidding, Voldemort and the Emperor aren't even close. And what for? Well, prepare to die with that question, because even Darren Cross in Ant-Man seems to have fairly valid motivations in comparison.

The cinematography is just... meh? It's got no personality whatsoever, and it just feels like it's shot with a generic template for an action movie (which is really dumb, because this is the most boring pile of crap I've ever seen).

The pacing is also so off... Even living through the whole thing in real time seemed to have better flow than sitting through this movie.

All in all, this kind of good vs. Evil story wouldn't hold up in 2021 even if the villains had reasonable motivations, because there are zero shades thrown around, it's pure black and white. Any spoiler warning is completely useless, because there is literally nothing to spoil in this plot.

And don't get me started on the "marketing" of this movie.

0/10, worse than Daredevil 2004, but at least that was sometimes funny.
