This movie has many things going for it. It shows the war in a sincere authentic and unique way, it is skillfully made, and it has lot of Serbian humor in its dark crudity. However, it is also a bit contrived and does not quite live to its pretensions. But it is a fun watch, accessible to wider world audiences, and gives a lasting positive impact. Dragojevic can be described as Quentin Tarantino of Serbian cinema, his movies have a bit of that vibe (not so much in violence but in how much it "borrows" and incorporates seamlessly), but this movie falls a bit short of the best of the best of the Balkan cinema.
