Posljednji Srbin u Hrvatskoj

As a Croat, I found this movie very funny, it trolls many of our stereotypes. Its on Netflix so foreign audience can see absurd stuff we are dealing on daily basis- from mass exodus to other richer EU Countries, homophobia, WW2 politics- who was Ustasha(fashist) who was Partisan (Communist), down to DNA and bloodcells- how much of you is pure croatian, help you god if you are mixed (serb, bosnian etc).

As far as storyline goes, its like its been taylor made for Covid times even it came out few months before it. Zombie effects are really good for low budget comedy. Also I was very happy to see my town mentioned by doctor in it, it made my day.

Anyway, check the movie, its only 85 minutes long, excellent for netflix and chill night.

OK, I guess this is the best Zombie parody I've seen since Shaun of the Dead :) I guess today, in the world of overly sensitive politically correct activists for animal rights, regarthless of which of the 7 unnatural genders they are, this movie would be too much to watch. It's typical Balkan humor, with intentionally cheezy overacting and cartoonish characters set into the cartoonish world of a zombie apocalypse so many people are taking seriously for no apperant reason. If you like zombie movies, high budget action, or actors making you believe the silver screen is more real than reality - this is not the movie for you. However, if you like a good laugh and are not taking yourself (or life, or world) too seriously - enjoy!

This movie was already in cinemas half a year ago and i had a hard time to find it somewhere to have a look at, luckily zagrebs "luda kuca" was showing it on a saturday evening for one-time only and so i went to watch it.

Using the backdrop of a zombie-apocalypse the movie is mocking everything that relates to the current state of the regions of the former yugoslavia and its relations to each other andit does it good enough to be actually funny which seems not to be a given in most croatians comedy-movies, at the same time thats the biggest problem of the movie, foreigners wont relate to it because these are mostly inside-jokes.

Kresimir Mikic is awesome and has become one of my favourite croatian actors, i really wished croatian cinema would make movies that doesnt target only domestic audiences, because it certainly has enough good actors but lacks the screenwriters for it.

So if you are from the balkans and like domestic comedies this one is worth a watch compared to what else croatian cinema has to offer, foreigners should take a pass and rather watch "Shaun of the Dead" or "Zombieland" which this movie doesnt come close.

It is a fun movie, parody of several genres. It is a successful political parody of Croatian obsessive idea of Serbs as filthy and dangerous but fascinating Other. Also, it is a successful parody of all small nations' myths of national pride and heroes. There are some very particular parodies of certain Croatian politicians and geopolitical relations. In this respect, it is actually a better movie than it looks like right on the first sight.

There is also unfortunately still a certain problem with the movie: it is very intelligent for someone who knows ex-Yugoslavia politics and history, but it probably looks non-sensical to people who are not familiar to that. In its desire to be a comical for ex-Yugoslav audience, it has a little bit too many cheap jokes and action movies stereotypes made for Balkan market . It perhaps prevents it from being a quality European level movie. Still, having the "virus" as a centre of its theme, probably will give this movie more attention in the future, since it also resonates well with the world pandemic situation, so it might work for the film.

The cast is also very good, at least three main roles are placed in the hands of three quality regional actors, and the film deserves praise in that sense. The minus is, however, the appearance of some iconic pop-culture figures in minimal roles, again, it works just as a low-level jokes of recognition, and not really as some serious reference to anything of significance in the movie.

Although arguably some of the funny bits may not be understood well by people outside of the Balkans area, if you (like I did) grew up in a certain age you will appreciate the parody of all things (various nationalities that now live in small countries in the region, zombies, homophobic people, silly movies, global companies that stop at nothing in search of profit ...). Good actors, a very funny script and matching music. I thoroughly enjoyed watching this movie!
