Not a Movie
Mihnea_aka_Pitbull28 September 2008
A pathologically foolish script, with no head or tail, unable to follow coherently the simplest functions of the humans involved: they speak, act and move like some faulty puppets. It would be too much to start talking about "story, motives, content, reasons, meaning, ideas"... Eugen Serbänescu is not able to gather together a primary school level composition. His writing is just a retarded exercise.

Same with the so-called "direction". The Barna person is attempting to "make a movie" along a similar paradigm with a traffic agent trying to conduct a Bach symphony. He has no idea what means a "mise en scene", a "shot", "acting", and so on.

Can you imagine that, at the opening gala, the whole audience was laughing noisily almost non-stop - and mainly when the main characters were in tormenting pain or even in death danger? The only reason for this production to exist is to show a sample of what can mean the height of absurdity: spending millions from the public money, only to let two morons state: "heya dudes, we mekkit a movvieh!" Sad and grotesque... :(
