Milionari de weekend

Well, after seeing a lot of Sergiu Nicolaescu's(a famous romanian director) I took a shoot in watching "Milionari de weekend", movie directed by Catalin Saizescu. It's basically a simple movie in which 3 guys and a girl get into a Russian Mafia conflict involving some art museum treasure, some money and you can see where this is getting to....I'm not going to give away any of the events from the movie, just going to let you watch it for yourself. In my opinion,"Milionari de weekend" reminds of Guy Richie's "Snatch" with all the close up footages, events mixed up, russians (there ls an actually Boris character here too..), a lot of characters not really defined...Anyway, some of you might know what I am talking about. On the other hand, I enjoyed some of characters, there's some good laughs in there and yes the fact that there are young actors starring in makes me think that yes, Romania can make movies. That's great! what's next? Laters

As a first note, Romanian rap band "Parazitii" does not appear in the movie :) Beside that, this movie really succeeded keeping me hooked up. Starting the second half of the movie, i was so gotten into the story, that i felt sorry the movie finished. The first part of the movie isn't so bright, the characters don't event try to act. And there are places where it's obvious that "Total Professional Records" did the movie (i say it in the most ironic way possible). But what i liked about this movie is that it kept me hooked up on the action. The script is, in my humble opinion, quite amazing. Also, it's one of the not-so-many movies i would like to see again in the future. The way the movie ends makes you feel like you missed something the first time, you must see it again to get the picture. And one last thing i liked in particular is that on several occasions, you think that in the next frame is going to happen a certain think... that's precisely the thing that's not going to happen. I like that. Sound is also pure genial. Now, the movie also has bad parts, but you can ignore them if you have the will. I gave it a 7/10.

Yes ! I've seen it ! And I laughed a lot. Maybe if you are not a Romanian or you've never been here, you can't understand the jokes or the thinks that are in this movie. Tudor Chirila is one of the new generation of actors in Romania. He is also a rock singer (his band is called Vama Veche - like one of the small cities from Romania, the frontier between Romania and Bulgaria). You can see in the movie that Chirila is acting like a rebel young boy. Also, there are two of our TV-stars : Oreste (called in the movie Fane Satar) and Mircea Badea (who's playing himself in the movie). They are very funny. The screenplay is kinda easy. But the movie is made for the young (20-30 years old). And with this movie, I can say that this is a step forward for the Romanian movie industry (and here I can say about the visual effects ... kinda new from Romanians). There's much to tell about this movie. But, maybe is better to find yourself. So ... if you wanna have fun ... try this movie ...

In my humble opinion ... a five star movie (from 5 possibles).

This was indeed a movie that pointed the youth audience , action is taking place in Romania, between Bucharest and the town at the Black Sea coast named Constanta , the hole plot is about two criminal bands that are fighting for recover a precious statuette that contains a very old ring which has an invaluable power that can harm or protect it's owner. For all of this there is a third band that has stolen it in the first place and three friends and a girl that involuntary happens to have it with the money from the deal that was disturbed in the first part of the movie , without knowing about the ring. They will gonna start spending the money and have fun for a weekend thinking about what lucky they have been finding it. All of this will be spoiled when the bands locate them . And here starts the action.

That all plot it supposed to seems like Hollywood action-comedy movies.

Well ... if you look at the movie as an "American clone action movie", than you must be really stupid. The movie is a comedy, "dear previous commenter" ... it is a very good comedy that makes fun of the American production style. It all depends on how you look at it.

The movie is brilliant. The story is great. You can't figure out the end of the movie, which is really really great. And to be honest ... 9 out of 10 friends of mine loved the movie.

I don't know how you can say the movie is the "biggest crap". You must know how to view a good movie.
