Excellent, Without a doubt!!
Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
The movie is very simple, easy-going, a bit grotesque, and a bit melodramatic. And funny of course. Very suitable to watch once a year with your grandma if you have one. We have a supermarket in our town and, guess, the first time it opened (not so long ago, by the way), its alien atmosphere provoked people to behave in awkward ways. Now we are accustomed to such type of shops and the magic is gone.The music is too loud sometimes and can cause headache. But that's all right. It is supposed to be fiery and hectic. The presentation of the events is quite childish and there will be no problem to watch it together with little children in a kindergarten.7 out of 10. Thanks for attention.
While this is by no means an incredible film, one must appreciate that it's much better fare than most romantic comedies. I disagree with the perception of the film as a justification for the Milosevic years. In my opinion, it presents the view that the old leaders had their problems, and that people must be careful to ensure that new problems don't develop. It's ridiculous to assume that condemnation of the present necessarily implies glorification of the past. The acting is great, with Jagoda and Marko coming across as absolutely hilarious. The choice of the Clash's "Lost in the Supermarket" was divine, and the brass rendition of it throughout the film adds to the football pitch atmosphere outside of the supermarket. A delight for non-Yugoslav film goers and the more initiated alike.
Neatly made, though nothing spectacular film from Yugoslavia (Serbia). Has a made-for-television feel to it (though i'm not sure if this is the case, or if this film had a cinema release in it's homeland).Some of the attempts at slapstick comedy just did not work, our hijacker constantly slipping on the floor wore thin after about the second time. The mocking of the police by the crowd was rather unrealistically childish.Hard to find any fault with the acting performances working with a threadbare script.My advice put your brain into stand-by mode & just let this film take you for a rather silly ride. 5/10
JAGODA U SUPERMARKETU is all about ideology. The films focuses all its` energy in attempts to defamate globalization which is fine. The only problem is that it was made in Serbia where poverty and spiritual decay rule. Also, in such a state, Milic film claims that love can overthrow any pain and thet our only trouble is the fact that Americans are openning supermarkets.Wrong! There is no love in decay. Decay is sickness not a state of grace.When it comes to craft, which was supposed to shaded by ideology, let`s begin with screenwriting. Screenwriting is horrible. This film feels like a 1985 comedy that scored a BOMB in Maltin guide. The dialogue is vulgar and as many films before, it relies on vulgar displays of verbal wit.Characters are flat and acting is weak since actors cannot create out of nothing. Also, Branka Katic, one of our major stars, is too old for this role even though she was a typecast. Problem is, she belonged in this type ten years ago, in 1992. Now, its` 2002/2003 and she must move on. Aging is not her problem. It`s all about the director who picks the cast of main characters.Milic`s staging and editing are neat. Editing and cinematogralhy are top-notch when compared to Serbian standards. Of course, Emir Kusturica`s credit as producer means that this film was made on a budget. I hope Milic will rebound from this abyss because underneath piles of producer and festival inflicted compromise lays a talented craftsman that can make a solid picture given a good script.
