The 2nd world war history of the hungarian people, and the clamp against freedome inserted by the russians throughout the cold war, you may nod your head in reckognizion. i went as a child on summer holidays in the early -70's, and did run slalom inbetween russian soldiers at the gellerthegy cittadel that overviews the city of budapest, searching for my family that id løost in the citystreets.being a norwegian child with no language knowledge but with good sense of orientation, found my way back to the car at the park site at the citadell, being conforted and fed with soldiers chocolate, till my heard came strolling as if nothing had happened at all. thereafter ive always scouted my whereabouts to be able to find my track back to safety...but thats another story...
this film seems to me as very mixed on emotions, it has a story thats easymade, and ive seen the composition before, buit its hungarian, with pretty good acting, good traditional outfitting, nice cgi's, and where possible,nice choice of locations.
its a slow burning thriller black comedy that you either love or hat, so i shall not decide wether to see or not. i give it a 6 thanks to the subtitles that made the grumpy old man understand.
