Nedelja

The movie is really outstanding! Emotional, touching, but also in certain moments funny. The scenes are made to wake up and to mix the hormones of happiness and sadness. For a moment I had the feeling that Dzej was in front of me, and that he sang to me about his life. I felt some chills all over my body. His voice in the background has awoken strong emotions reminding me of many life memories in the past. The little and the big Dzej played amazing roles. Other actors were also fantastic! I don't have any criticism. I just regret not meeting the Dzej - the favourite man at Dorcol who captivated people by sincere smile and kindness.

It is truly unfortunate that the movie '"Toma'' received more praise on Imdb so far than ''Nedelja'', hence the need for writing this review, since the movie - as a whole - is indeed a work of art when compared to the other one. Scholarly and masterfully directed, with beautiful post-production and photography, stellar cast and an emotional subject for many of us, with mesmerizing blend of Oliver Mandic's music accenting the story of the last ''good spirit of Belgrade'' touched the hearts of the whole theater. Serbia didn't have such a sincere (coming of age) movie in a long, long time. Thank you.

Movie Nedelja stands out distinctly from other domestic Serbian cinematic creations. It takes you on an intense emotional journey, on a moments causing chills, tears and laughter, beautifully narrating the life and vibrant energy of the music icon from Dorchol, Dzej Ramadanovski. Nedelja movie offers much more to the audience, it masterfully portrays the youth and lives of various generations during the Yugoslav era. Watching movie instantly transports you back to childhood stirring vivid memories. The audience might find echoes of their own family stories revived. Truly, Nedelja is a cinematic masterpiece that resonates deeply on personal level.

The whole concept and narration of Film is outstanding. Film is not boring, intro also outstanding, selection of characters is also outstanding, the regiseur of film also done outstanding job. Every character in film has his own story, but the most outstanding character in this film is character of Dzamba, Jay's brother. His expressions, the way how he talks, acts is outstanding and watching film even more interesting. I think wolrd cinematography has in future big star. All in all I was reallybig surprised with this film. The whole concept of Film is not basing on boring facts. 10/10.

Watched in Dortmund Cinestar.

I haven't seen such an awful movie in a while. Artistically void, hopelessly bland, with zero movie-making craft. Watches like an unsuccessful documentary - as if someone dramatized parts of Dzej's Wikipedia page. Characters are hopelessly shallow. So many narrative arcs are scratched on the surface and then just left to die - which may be forgiven had the movie managed to communicate some strong emotion - which it definitely didn't. The main character and narrator, Dzej, feels like a faded bystander in his own movie. Major things in his life just happen, and we have no explanation or exposition why - neither factographical, nor emotional, not even postmodernly artistic. What is this movie trying to do, what is trying to be? It's neither a documentary-like coherent biopic nor an arthouse examination of an artist's internal life and emotions. Nor is it anything in between - the script is just plain bad, and often, really boring. Absolutely horrid waste of time to be honest. A shame, because a movie about Dzej's life could have been really good, but the screenwriters just blew it.
