Necista krv: Greh predaka

I had no expectations coming into cinema knowing that some previous adaptations of this exact piece of literature hadn't really been that successful. However, I must say that I was pleasantly surprised, because the newest adaptation of Necista krv (or Bad Blood) is nearly flawless in variety of aspects. First of all, sound was terrific, a revelation for me, having been used to terrible sound techniques of Serbian cinema. Cinematography is, perhaps, one of the best ones I've seen in years, whoever is the person who stood behind this should receive an applause from honest moviegoers. Now, acting was very good and frequently criticized young actors performed significantly better than they had before. Direction was also very solid. All in all, a fantastic film and you should definitely check it out.

Movie is absolutley beautiful, cinematography is side by side with Hollywood. But to me as a Serbian from Southern Serbia really bothers that dialect is not used. Movie would be a perfect 10 if the dialect of Vranje was used. This way, i really can't go above the 8.

Movie is not historical, or made as a representation of a book. It is inspired by first dozen or so pages when the lead character was introduced, this is a story about her grandphader as I remember. He is only mentioned in the book and Bijelogrlic did an amazing job by creating thist storyline.

This movie is all about creating fake history. Poor acting and highly racism scene's. This has absolutely nothing to do with the real stories. It should be removed and disbarred from platforms.

This is the cheesiest way to show Turks are evil. The whole garbage of a movie begins with a scene where Ottoman soldier shoots a dog for no reason and throws it at a Church. They couldn't even find Turkish actors to play the roles. Just when I thought Turkish TV shows sucked, you guys came along. Please reconsider movie industry as a business profile.

Also, if you want to make a video about hating on Turks, just upload it on YouTube. Don't waste people's time.

One of the things that is great about this movie is it's production and authentic look of nineteenth century Serbia under the crumbling Ottoman empire, also since this is a Balkan movie it is really close to western production standards. The film is a prequel of well known book called Necista Krv (Impure blood) by Borisav Stankovic, a well known Serbian author. The film show how the local Serbian elite to preserve their status and power colluded with the Ottoman occupiers and made deals with them in secret and even trading their loved ones when times get tough. The main character is man who is unhappy with the state of his family and their many sins that they commit daily of which the whole town talks about (as a saying goes "o cemu carsija prica nego onama"). The family member are mostly "stained" by their lack of control of their emotions as well as their lust to which the main character knows about both keeps things "hush, hush" to preserve their wealth and influence. The Ottoman are shown mostly as evil, both the Serbs are shown to mostly commit the necessary evils to survive (which is partly true historically). In the end the movie has high productions value for Serbian production, the authenticity of dress and morals of that time is greatly done, and it's worth seeing, both not as good as I expected! Recommended.
