    Sad, interesting, still far from excellent
    It is an interesting movie about King Petar and the retreat of the Serbian army and civilians, who were forced to leave their homes due to the horrors of war and huge aggression by many axis forces.

    The movie is well made and tho it is slow-paced, it has a deep and emotional approach to the whole situation and historical event, which is ignored by modern-day society.

    It is a fact that the Serbian population defended much more than only Serbia and were standing tall against not one, but three aggressors. Serbia was a powerful force against the Ottoman empire as well, but to this day, it is a country that does not get the respect it deserves when talking about the Balkan wars, WW1 and WW2.

    However, the movie states it is a true story, but it fails with those silly socks and stating that someone died from a "broken heart". There is no proof he had those socks with him, nor is there any proof someone died from "broken heart" making this only a movie with some elements based on real events.

    What the movie lacks is more info about aggressors. The world should know! The modern-day world is not aware of the suffering the Serbian nation has been through in both WW's, And today, the west even defends nations that were part of Axis forces. Some of them are even powerful, rich countries, which makes me think: Who actually lost and won both WW?"

    Germany for example is far richer than each and every country on the Balkan, jet we say we won. We won what actually?

    Sad movie, I liked it a lot, but can't say it is excellent. Actors are BRILLIANT! King even looks like actual Petar I. Two main soldiers did a great job, but the third "soldier" really amazes me!

    This is not an easy Sunday movie. It is a story of suffering, death, and horrors of war. It is a story about one nation, a story that is ignored in the modern-day world. A story that many use to ridicule Serbia, not being aware of how important this country was to the whole of Europe, not only the Balkan area! And many don't know this is not just running, but more of: "We will not bow down, we rather walk a thousand miles if we have to than surrender to you!"
