Retreat Vama Veche

I regret waisting 90 mins watching this lame, cheap and very commercial but in a poor way ' movie'. Really sad they promoted this as good quality when in reality I could have brought more art filming my daily life, just working and living. Very cheap story to see. I still need to add 300 characters for this message to be published so I will add 2 more minutes to full waiste analyzing this ' movie'. Hmm what to add more? Predictable replicas, scenes basically all the movie very easy to forecats the ' non action' intrigue and the lack of talent for the 'actos'. Give me a script and I put more emotion with zero interest in acting.. Laaaame!

The only movie I kept commenting "this is sooo bad" continuosly. Yes it is that bad, I think random children taken from highschool would have better acting skills than the actors from this film, they are soooo sooo baaad. The script is funny and with good potential, but the bad acting ruins everything. Too bad because the decors, sound, image are good and doesn't look at all as a budget movie, the only thing that ruina the movie is the bad acting and every single review I read are complaining about this. I hope they read this comments and they give up on acting "career". And don't forget the fake moldavian accent oh God!

Aahhh... the Mondays of cinematography...

Sometimes the Romanian art enablers just have COVID ... And too much money. It's baffling to me how this got greenlighted (there's nothing original in the story, nothing about Vama Veche, nothing relatable)

I've seen better acting from pebbles rolling down a hill.

Really looking forward for better Romanian movies!

A couple of years ago, I've been invited at a local short film festival that presented 4 different cliche stories (for Romanians): first movie was about the man that beats his wife, the second about children abandoned by their families who went to work in other countries... etc. Those movies, as this one, had no value to me, to the public, to the ones that made them... After the festival, the directors were invited on tothe scene for a short q and a. And some of them had the audacity to say that these movies were made "on their knees" (meaning in a hurry) because there was money to be spent (there is a State institution that overlooks art / movies). THIS WAS EXACTLY THAT.

While RO cinema usually puts lower quality stuff, this is just garbage! Don't watch it!

The acting, if we can call it that, is something out of a bad kids play, the script is trash, basically everything is unwatchable.

No idea why they made it, but maybe they should rethink movie making, cuz the people behind this are just bad at it.

As for the ladies cast in the main roles, uhh, talk about cringe acting. They give a new meaning to the word bad actor, if they can be called that.

I managed to see maybe 20 min from it and then decided that my time can't be wasted anymore on this!

You are better off looking at your toes, than watching this!

This was probably meant to be a tiktok story, turned out too long when editing so they tried to see if cinema is a better fit. Fear not, Romanian content quality rating won't suffer too much, just like TikTok videos, lowest quality in the world in script, direction, "actors" play. Don't be fooled, none of them are actually actors, they are old-fashioned influencers trying to grow their online profile through this. Don't waste your time on it. Go, watch a real movie, this is not one of them. Such a waste of time and space on the streaming platforms and waste of money like most recent Romanian movies that are being made.
