Noi, cei din linia întîi (1985)
top 10 worst Romanian war movies
This is one of the worst Romanian war movie ever , because it looks like American propaganda war movie directed by Romanian communist .The battle scenes are hilarious, 5-6 fake Panzers sitting ducks until some Romanian soldiers with grenades (!) destroyed them, one general ask for a machine gun and join the battle ( against all military rules ), from time to time you can see German soldiers holding Russian machine guns, German general use same car ( Russian ) as Romanian general etc ... Most characters act unbelievable for a bunch of untrained peasants and the history tell us different story about the way Romanian army fought in WWII . And finally, like in all dumb Romanian war movies, most of the characters must die in the most stupid way. Like ...the last German soldier , with the last bullet , in the last second of the war will kill our near and dear hero bla bla bla . The effort of the director to show a glorious well trained army goes like dust in the wind when faces the sharp blade of historical reality. Truth is that untrained Romanian army betrayed Germany after 4 years of alliance for Russian balalaika ...and after 50 years betrayed Russian balalaika for the American "goodies" .Knowing these facts you cannot "enjoy" the stupid heroic story on the screen . Better watch "wheels of terror" after a Sven Hassle novel , looks 1000 times more real than this crappy movie .
Zile fierbinti (1976)
Just propaganda...nothing else
Actually this is not a real movie . It's communist propaganda documentary ( like many other Romanian "movies" ) where you can see how a factory manager (actual senator Sergiu Nicolaescu )struggling to build a propeller(!) for some Romanian vessel .This "movie" is full of communist cliché and looks like it's inspired from Chinese propaganda films. I must say that acting it's not very bad ...because in real life, actors were big communists... so everything was very natural for them. Of course, nowadays - in real life - they are big democrats and experts in democracy . I believe they are just big chameleons ...and probably this old "movie" it's necessary to be seen just to understand how a communist can become a fanatic "democrat". After you see this "movie", you need to watch some old tapes with actors in real life , to realize the "transformation" they suffer.
My favorite -stupid- scene: Somebody was calling the Airport to ask if 5 tons propeller from Japan arrived - with a commercial flight. How can you fit a 5tons propeller in a commercial plane? Ask Communist Party, for Comrades everything was possible. And even if you can, nobody knew anything until the plane was landing? Probably that propeller was mailed by Japanese in an envelope and they where looking for it in the cargo. Stupid.
Red Dragon (2002)
Predictable , bad scripting ...
Now let's face it ...who gonna buy this kind of story ? It's just a commercial movie where everything is predictable and full of "donuts" :A maximal security jail and Dr Lecter play with the phone , make a conversation ( how can you dial like that on a digital line ?! ) and NOBODY listen that conversation . They were in the lunch break . Stupid .Another donut : that Graham dude seems to be indestructible .Knifes , bullets , nothing can kill him . Oh yeah , i forgot , Dr Lecter is a dog . The scene where he recognize the perfume of the Graham dude is stupid .And looks like they cut it from first episodes .Or maybe i'm wrong and Graham stinks so bad and Lecter recognize him easily . Let's say that the introduction , with the "angry" wife who looks concerned for her ass more than for his husband life , it's bad too . Probably they can make another 10 movies ( episodes ) with the same stupid theme . IN REAL LIFE A SERIAL KILLER IS CAUGHT AFTER 10-20 YEARS OR NEVER . So let's make the difference between reality and fiction - and between bad and good movies .
