Before I say anything about the movie, I would like to mention that I am Lithuanian. As almost any other Lithuanian I know the story of events that happened after Act of the Re-Establishment of the State of Lithuania was signed on March 11, 1990.
The movie began quite good. I really liked how it was filmed (the picture, the colors, the lightning) from beginning to the end. I also liked the actors, because they were not some famous actors that act in every TV series made in Lithuania.
But that's all. That's all I liked. The movie didn't show how horrible January Events actually were. In the movie it just looked like Soviet military units randomly decided to shoot some peaceful protesters and shortly after that they left. Wait what? It wasn't like that, the movie didn't explain enough the situation, the politics, the purpose of each side. From January 11 to January 13 every Lithuanian was either in Vilnius near the parliament and the TV tower OR ear-touching the radio listening what is happening there before the broadcasting was terminated. The movie lacked information, that's why it didn't deliver the message. The situation in Lithuania at that time was much worse than it was shown in this movie.
I only rate this movie 4/10 because of the camera work. The storytelling was terrible.
