It is a pity that in spite of it's greatness, the movie is very sensitive to translation ... of language and socio-political environment.
In the magic of the Yugoslav eighties, this film was like something you will never have seen before. The sense of humor those guys had is incredible, comparable only to greatness like Mark Twain, Jaroslav Hasek, Monty Python, in their best years.
Please do also see "Ko to tamo peva" (from two years earlier, same scriptwriter&director).
And remember, if at first you don't succeed.. do yourself a big favor and watch the movie again. Then if you still don't like it, do yourself a bigger favor still and go see 'Airplane II'(also same script,writer&director..) and forget about Serbian comedy.
10/10
