Featured reviews
I have watched two movies/series this week. One is this movie and another or a series. The amount of effor went into this movie is horrible. The acting is horrible and feels like I am watching a Brazil soap opera the After watching an animated show about sibilings this is still worst. Go watch Arcane from Netflix! It's great compared to this dump!
I'm okay with the story, but the timeline is slow. The actors are not professionals.

Disgusting film, propaganda from the worst dictatorship in the EU.
Content 0, actors 0, director is less than 0, the story is also 0.
Waste of time.

Finally I could watch free (I didn't want to watch it in the cinema because I paid the price of the filming with my tax) this "political drama" after it was on show on the Hungarian TV channel TV2.
If I had to describe it in one word: terrible. Don't watch it, it is a 2 hours long suffering. The sounds are unclassifiable, you can't hear the dialogues in the most scenes. The story is untraceable. The acting performance is below average, it seems they did it only for a lot of money.
The purpose of the film isn't the entertainment. It has just one purpose: character murder of Klára Dobrev before the Hungarian election in April, 2022. Tiny beauty flaw that the prime minister nominee isn't Dobrev.
So my rating is 1* becaust this isn't a real movie, this is just another one propaganda product of the Hungarian government from the tax-payers money. From that money which could be much more useful in the health care or in the education, where people earn less money than an operator in a factory. This is a shame...

So sad, that millions of Euros were used from hungarian public funds to create such a motion picture filled with lies and inaccuracy about a hungarian historical event during 2006.
It is also a shame that both the director and the director of photography are not hungarians which is to show that this is a political propaganda movie that is fiction. Hungarian filmmakers are very known in the movie industry with couple of Oscars to confirm it but this movie is so overrated trying to convince the hungarian audience that it is a non-fiction.
I was there in Budapest during the 2006 political demonstrations and after watching the movie for free of course I had that terrible feeling about how the current hungarian political party in power is using all means necessary to brainwash hungarian people by creating propaganda movies.
In Hungary at the moment the government is an autocratic regime trying to silence all opposition parties and using every tool to stay in power. This movie also shows that it has nothing to do with artistic filmmaking but to favor the hungarian ruling government by creating a propaganda cinema!!!

- TriviaThe original Hungarian title, "Elk*rtuk" (with a censored "ú") translates to "We F*cked Up". It's a quote from a leaked recording of the infamous Öszöd speech, in which then-prime minister Ferenc Gyurcsány told his party members that they have lied to the Hungarian population for years.
