Continuity: As it is stated by Móricka earlier in the movie, successful time travel depends on physical contact (holding each other's hand) of all the travelers. However, upon returning from the stone age it is clear that no such contact is present.

The pearl of East Europe

I red other user comments and I don't like the connections between Nyocker and any other movie made outside of east Europe. Only a "natural" born Easteuropean, can fully understand the meaning and most of the jokes in this movie. The characters represent a typical example of small criminals and citizens living in poor blocks of the city, they habits and temper. The policemen for example are corrupt so real, like in our city. I think that the animation its outstanding and has nothing to do with Southpark. Respect to the authors for hours and hours of work on this movie. Everything has been made in 3d with the use of hand-drawn textures, which is much different from the Southpark way of animation. It is original in every aspect. Faces of the characters are mix of scanned photo and sketches. They mimic its affected in such a funny way that you would laugh without understand the language and plot. The best joke in this movie, are the rap songs, which parody every musical ever made on the earth. As as Easteuropean in can only recommend this movie, because it has the purest spirit of our part of the world.
