Roda tsanta kai kopana

This is the last and hopefully final movie of the franchise.

Most people regard the old movies as culture classics but in all honesty after the first one the rest are pretty weak and careless.

AND EVEN THESE DON'T EVEN COME CLOSE TO THIS ATROCITY!!

First of all the story is terrible. No concept at all.

The acting is beyond horrific. Most of these guys are not legit actors anyway (Douzos and Matoula for example) and the real actors are just roaming around mumbling the script.

Anyway it takes a lot of courage to start this and a lot more to get through the middle. If you finish it you are a hero.

Although I can understand those much negative reviews about this film from the fellow greeks I don't agree that this film is pure trash while the others from the 80s were.....gold. Already the 80s cult films were bad for what they were. sure they were a kind of fresh fun back then with a couple of laughs but don't kid yourself. excluding the first two films which were just average roda tsanta k kopana no 3 was poor and part 4 was even worst than the 2011 film. I agree this 2011 film is bad and the first three films were better but not the atrocious part 4. Also we can see this 2011 entry as a tribute to the older films. after all it's a kind of a reunion and u mostly watch it for.....nostalgic reasons. u don't expect much from it. for me it didn't hurt that I watched it once in the theater back in 2011 and even for a sort time I remembered the fun we had in the 80s. I even collected this for my dvd collection but sure if u are not a fan of the greek cult 80s films then u should skip this. All in all roda tsanta k kopana 1982 and it's first sequel were good for what they were but still they were not great films. just average. part 3 is also average but below the first two films while this 2011 entry comes next but it's even below average but i'm sorry guys the worst film in this franchise is not this film. it's the atrocious part 4 which was made years after the original trilogy.

Definitely one of the worst movies I have ever payed for in cinemas...

Only a few bits are approaching funny, but even those repeat themselves and become indifferent to the eye...The script is absent, and it reminds the old episodes but without any flare or interest. There are a few members of the cast that surprise and entertain, but they r not enough to save the shipwreck..

Very poor effort by the cast altogether, and the director who wanted to make this one for a long time. Cheap production, cheap result...the legacy is not fulfilled by this sequel.

It is disappointing to see so many people visiting the cinemas for such crappy productions.

I wasn't planning to go into details, as I don't think there is a point to it. So my first paragraph says it all.

All I will say is this: I have watched all sorts of movies in theaters, am a big movie and cinema fan. I have seen the best and the worst. And never have I left a movie theater before the end of the show... until today. The movie started at 23:48 and I was out of the doors by 00:11. I am not joking and I am not overreacting.

Nothing more needs to be said about this.

Well as it turns out I need to add more to this before I am allowed to post so here is some more info for those that got this far.

in 20 minutes of movie time that I managed to make myself sit through:

half the time was spent showing scenes from the cult 80's hit movie so the new movie offered nothing.

the old actors from the cult movie should have stayed retired as their acting was awful and the 2 scenes portraying the "new class" seemed to go out of its way to show their lack of skill.

there was no script to speak of. it seemed to me that the movie was gonna end up a 1 hour mash up of old scenes and hastily put together scenes to try to pass as a new movie.

Overall it seemed to me as a desperate effort to use an old brand name to milk some cash from people with absolutely no intent of giving anything to the viewer. This isn't a remake, it isn't a reboot, this is a sequel that uses the exact same name as the original which should illustrate how little they were planning to offer to people.

i grew up watching the cult movies of the 80s of roda tsanta kai kopana, the first 2 were really funny that is why they had a huge success in Greece during their release.

when i heard about a remake i thought, what a great chance will be that to bring this movie to the 21st century. that is why i was one of the first who went to watch it. The movie was AWFUL. you hardly laugh during the movie, it has an amateur script, lots of mistakes unprofessional actors and most of the time you were watching flashbacks of the 80s series.

another point i really didn't like was that this movie was used by sponsors of the movie, an online casino and a telephone enquiries company in Greece, to advertise their products, it was so obvious in several parts of the movie but especially when the lyceum owner sits and comments how good the online casino is, says the website, and mentions you can play from home, at your own comfort etc, why that was there what was the need?

also in many times there was dub (when you talk over the movie which was asynchronous with the play)

Script wise, Directors wise, was a disaster its a pity that the production company, the directors and script writers did not exploited the opportunity and the success of the movie in the 80s to make a great comedy like the 80s ones

why was that movie released? a great opportunity was missed. (if there was grade 0 i would have used it)
