6 Days Dark (2014)
Another crap made in Serbia
For reasons only known to them, Serbians again strike the world of cinematography with another cheap-shot. This time, even lower budget and even bigger crap. Storyline was cliché even in the early '70s, not to mention now. Insisting on native actors who barely speak English ensured, once again, complete train wrack of a film with many unfortunate victims (by victims, i mean viewers). The feeling of disgust is only further enhanced by god-awful soundtrack composed by Nikola "Blood Mage" Jeremic, self proclaimed and self taught (?!) movie composer,failed heavy-metal guitarist (who couldn't play a proper solo even if his life was depending on it). Now he reinvents himself as a movie composer and ,boy, does he sucks at it. Coming from a Serbian, don't watch our movies dating from 2000. till now. You'll live longer.
Srpski film (2010)
Is this a Serbian film? Yes. Is this a good Serbian film? HELL NO!!!
This movie is advertised as being the most shocking film ever, but the only thing shocking and extreme about it is how shockingly poor it is made. I haven't witnessed such a meaningless script since "The zone of the dead" (another pathetic attempt of Serbian cinematography)and I've seen better developed characters in Sunday morning cartoons. Acting is so wooden that Arnold Schwarzenegger looks like supreme Shakespearean actor in comparison. Also, most of the scenes completely deify logic and lack common sense. The rape scene, which is intended as the highlight of the movie, completely misses the point, and instead of being brutal statement of harsh Serbian reality it is just a morbid mess and should be punished by law. First time director Srdjan Spasojevic proved that he should have stayed 0 (zero, null, cero) times director and that there is a good reason why film critics are not film-makers. On the side note the scene with Srdjan Todorovic in which he threatens the porn director with cutting his own penis is absolutely hilarious! Cinematography is surprisingly decent, but wasted on this god-awful mess of a movie, it fails to impress. Wikluh Sky provides soundtrack that recalls Nine Inch Nails's "Broken", and truth be told, it's about 20 times more worthy then the movie itself.
Conclusion: Is this a Serbian film? Yes. Is this a good Serbian film? HELL NO!!!
P.S. If you want to take a stab at Serbian cinematography, I recommend watching films like: "I Even Met Happy Gypsies" (Emir Kusturica), "Pretty Village, Pretty Flame" (Srdjan Dragojevic), "Knife" ( Miroslav Lekic) or even "Tears for Sale" (Uros Stojanovic) - it's a lot better than this crap!
