Atomski zdesna

I'm watching and crying. Not because the film is moving, but because Yugoslav cinema is dying in pain. I will not waste my words on this movie, I really have no nerves. It's not a drama nor a comedy, lousy story, lousy acting, lousy directing... Watchable, but total waste of time.

4/10

I would like to give a quick response to other user's reviews. Maybe you didn't like the movie and that is OK, but most of you just didn't understand it. First, the movie is very serious, it's not a comedy and I didn't see any humor. You are all so used to Srdjan always trying to make his movies funny. This time I don't think he wanted to do that. Moreover, this movie is very deep and symbolic, you cannot just expect typical character development of individual characters. And also the actors were so good that I couldn't tell which one was better, because they all worked as a whole to portray the reality which we have constantly been trying to avoid facing, and this time Srdjan didn't want to help us covering it with humor like before. The only miss for me are the characters from Nis, because people from Nis don't speak like that. It seemed that actors were using Zona Zamfirova movie to prepare to speak like people from Nis :)

Dragojeivć is using the Yugoslavian war jokes and stories as a stand where he can distract you form realizing how movie is bad.

Story is shallow, too many characters, which are not proving as stereotype different nationalities of ex-Yugoslavia countries.. Too many aggressive scenes, form milking into the glass, to showing penis or junkie vomiting, which are all to exaggerating and absolutely unnecessary.

Humor is old and I've heard it many times in his movies before. Not that I don't like it, it isn't funny anymore when is so many times repeated.

In my opinion movie is done too fast and too shallow for director as Dragojević, I've seen much much better things than this one.

This is a soulless film where its soullessness comes both from author's intentions and from the poor script we are subjected to.

His intention is to point out to the local Balkan ex Yugoslavia mentality in modern neoliberal ruthless capitalist reality and at the same time to partly and superficially give assessment of the 1990's wars where in a dirty messy conflict laden with deep historical background director decided to take side and to use this failed comedy as a cynical dethatched political exploitation piece, exploiting the divide and heightened emotions of the people representing ex YU republics and in the end proving that ruthless capitalists are not his bland merchant protagonists but himself.

Do not expect character development or any deepness from this film, it stays on the surface level of caricature, of undeveloped unsympathetic and forced characters. Expect no great revelations, no deep point, just banality and a sense of hollowness if you endure long enough to the end credits.

The visual aspect is so-so, a conventional uninspired run of the mill close and medium shots film without any deep building of space, without visual virtuosity or excitement. Bland as its scenario, bland as actors willing to participate and take cash for this. When it comes to the color texture of the film they look like they were deliberately processed to look bleak but the added visual sterility makes the whole experience even more artificial representing total boredom and uninterestedness of the director in this project.

Don't waste your time on this because it can be better spent on nose picking or sheep counting.

I am deeply sorry that you could not see and feel the depth of criticism of the entire modern society, on all possible levels, presented to us in this movie by many short and deeply connected stories. This was not supposed to be a comedy or shallow Hollywood-production film, but profound analysis of society we live in. Just one small illustration: while modern man are selling imaginary luxurious "future" in attempt to ripoff the poor miserable slaves, young generations (little boy) are unsuccessfully trying to attract attention by drawings, and at the end they get lost/injured/killed... Lost for life that we are creating by participation in this type of world and human relations... Great movie!
