Too much of everything
Yo, there's no way for me to review this film without saying, take your *insert ethnicity + "ass" here* to see this film,like now. You have to see it in order to know what you're really messing with.
The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny
This movie is breathtaking, it makes you see the war from a different perspective that you wouldn't think about. I knew Germany invaded Russia and what they did, but I was still shocked watching it. It's a shame that most people don't know about this film, because it's just as good as Schneider's list and pianist even better if you ask me.
After finding an old rifle, a young boy joins the Soviet resistance movement against ruthless German forces and experiences the horrors of World War II. Idi i smotri is another example of an overrated film being on the Top 250 and it doesn't really belong here cause it's just another boring movie with nothing new to give or say and just because it's not american we need to congratulate it or whatever and i mean the movie wasn't all that good to begin with it was boring, dumb and just way too bland to fully really enjoy it as a whole. (0/10)
The movies starts rather slowly and just like a real storm rises up and up until it riches you with all its power and takes you up into the bloody, dusty, dirty and cruel atmosphere of the war.There are some exaggerations which I think are not unrealistic but maybe probability of their occurrence in a sequence is not high, even in the world war. However, I think it is intended and the scenes are masterfully developed to compress more necessary plots in the limited time of a movie.you will be introduced with the horror of war in the 30 minutes of the movie in which you haven't experienced before. No matter hoe many movies you have seen or how many stories you have read, you will have a new experience here for sure. Don't miss this movie
Come and See follows a young Belarusian Flyora who wants to join the army and fight in the war. From then on Floyra's life and whole universe change to a point of no return.This won't be a very long review but this film had me going. Truly one of this most terrifyingly realistic war films i have ever seen. A child soldier who wanted to willingly fight, and all we do is watch as war takes everything that makes a young boy innocent away from him.This film extremely captivates the reality of war. I was left silent through out the whole film almost horrified by some of the incidents occurring on the screen. The Directing, Acting, EVERYTHING is just extremely captivating. There's so much i could say about this film but i want to try and leave this film completely spoiler free.All i can say is when you see this film, you will never forget it and though this film may be extremely horrific with some scenes its definitely a great piece of cinema. Truly Powerful.
