Kusturica meets Jackass

Rating: 6/10 (14 November 2006)

I'm sure that I'm not the only one who after seeing this movie thought of Kusturica's "Time of the Gypsies" movie. First of all, Bregovic music, there are at list 5 songs, with some repetitions of Ederlezi, the theme of Kusturica's movie and the journey itself. The movie contains some key elements of Kusturica's other movies mixed with some Michael Moore documentary, some Jackass. A strange mix, but not so impressive that it might seam. Boran's village is, I can say for sure, a typical Romanians gypsies one. The poor people really envoy being joked at. It's funny for me to listen to the Romanian taking on the background. Many Romanians were outraged by this movie, but I'm sure not of them. If you what carefully, the joke is on the American style of life. It's a movie to see, it's not a good movie, it's just a movie. It's better then watching the news.
