    Total waste of time ! Must sue the directors...

    I have in mind to sue the makers of this garbage, for hour and half lost time of my life...Time that never come back . Maybe the worst in my life. As movie fan at all, as Proud Bulgarian citizen - i'm deeply disappointed with this horrible try to make some good movie about one of the biggest military mystery of closest history of our country. I must point that give a chance for the full length of this disaster ...

    I hope that tomorrow will erase the memory of that "thing" .

    If u wanna feel like me - watch and enjoy the loss of your precious time ...

    worst movie ever

    Every actor should be ashamed to be part of this movie. Such a low quality production that I was ashamed even to watch it. I cannot decide what is worst In this movie. Imagine paying for this movie in theaters. I would want my money back :D.

    Weak story following by weak cinema. Movie costed 500k euro. I have no idea where the money went? Maybe is one big scam to make money? Who knows. All the positive comments here I believe are friends of the people who had part in the production. Don't waste your time.

    Underrated

    I've never written a review on this platform before and I'm certainly not a film critic, but come on, are there really only one-star reviews here? I don't think this film deserves such harsh criticism.

    First off, all the actors delivered strong performances, especially Maria Bakalova. She truly shines in this role - her acting is very expressive and even when she's silent, her eyes speak volumes. Her character evolves beautifully throughout the film, growing from a naive, childlike figure into a more confident young woman who embraces her own weirdness. We don't often see such interesting, layered female characters in Bulgarian cinema, and I truly appreciated that.

    I understand that some viewers might have expected more focus on the true story, but this isn't a documentary after all. The film still manages to tell a compelling story and even includes a few lighthearted, giggle-worthy moments without falling into clichés or recycling tired jokes - something I find all too common in recent Bulgarian comedies.

    In conclusion, I believe Triumph is well worth watching. It offers an intriguing narrative inspired by real events, and above all, it features excellent acting. Give it a chance, it might surprise you.

    A wasted potential

    The hole of Tsarichina is one of the most interesting conspiracy theories in Bulgarian history and therefore it is a beautiful material for a movie. When I saw that this movie was being made I was really excited.

    However, my expectations were too good to be true. This movie wastes the huge potential for an amazing plot, delivering only disappointment after watching it.

    The movie has several problems. The first one is the unstructured and goalless plot, which delivers nothing of the expected and wanted result (the progression in the hole mining). The second one is the uneven speed of the plot, where at first nothing much happens and at some point it launches at light speed. These problems emerge from the absence of clear goal. I don't know what needs to progress because the movie doesn't reveal the final goal.

    The humor is pretty goofy and unintelligent. There are several sexual jokes which bring nothing but cringe and annoyance.

    I am really disappointed they took this amazing idea, implemented it in the script in the worst way possible and now there is almost no chance that a movie is made for the Hole of Tsarichina.

    The 2 stars given are because they took on the idea in the first place. Nothing else in the movie fulfills my high expectations.

    A weird piece of treasure!

    I was really surprised to see such a strange movie from my Bulgarian peers! It was enjoyable, funny, engaging, with very strong performances, and amazing cinematography! I understand how some people might find it difficult to digest, but for me it was a pure pleasure to see where the story and the weirdness will go! And it didn't disappoint till the very end shot of Maria Bakalova's character against the sky...
