Much better then Zona Zamfirova!
12 November 2005
When movie landed in the theaters, everybody expected another miss of home movie production, but the movie was pleasant surprise. Much better movie then it's "prequel" Zona Zamfiorova, although this movie was made by the book of Stevan Sremac, too. Clear improvement in acting crew with Bjelogrlic, Cvijanovic, Todorovic etc., is enrichment for this film. Fantastic crew and more interesting script brought overwhelming victory against Z.Z. Minus for the film is this new trend in domestic film production. The new trend is the stupid commercials during the film. For example, actors only drink trademarked drinks, with it's label always, and i mean always turned in the face of the camera, although label was turned in the different way the scene before. And the gypsies play the music clearly out of the time of the 19th century. Ignoring this, everybody will find the movie very entertaining, even though strange Southern Serbia accent is difficult to understand. Mile rules. Serbia will understand. Zoran Cvijanovic's character Mile is bonus for his career. Somebody will not agree, but how can't you love Mile.
