Oblawa (2012)
2/10
Oh.. not again
18 March 2013
Yes... or shall I say No ... Well it happened again. But let's start from the very beginning here. When you live in a country that has been ruined in a 1st and 2nd world war you can imagine and somehow accept that for some period in time war-related movies will be main stream of all productions. However it's years now and don't get me wrong here - we shall all remember- but it's more than 90+ years now and we have enough. Most movies made in Poland has something with war and how WE - Polish country are poor because of that fact. Yes I know - it has devastating effect on economy etc. but why shall I watch it over and over again since I'm 30+years now. So you have background now. Lets go to the movie itself. Not only had I feeling that I've seen it before but this movie is terribly boring. Filmed in 3 different locations (woods, house and windmill) causes your eyes to close in the middle of it. Action ? Well.. there is only one action - in other words: "Shooting scene" is only once... Actors are good. You will see quite good polish actors - this is the only thing that keeps it in one piece. Just to summarize - it's again about war, it starts slowly, it is slow and boring, and finishes very slowly - so at the end of the movie you stand up and say What the heck ? Not worth watching - save 1.5hrs for another movie. It is low budget production about scouts rather than soldiers - at least this is my feeling 1 day after watching it. Yes - i gave it some time in my head to process - with no effect - as it is not 21st century breath taking movie.
