Franjo Dijak and Natasa Janjic Medancic in Goran (2016)

Review by charlieinfinite-96215

Goran

10/10

Got Exactly What I Was Looking For

I don't understand all of the negative reviews. The movie is exactly what it intends to be: a bleak tragecomedy (note I don't say "dark" comedy, because it is beyond that).

If you feel like the movie is dragging, maybe you should turn your brain off and go back to watching Avengers. The haters here are probably also the ones who prefer the directors cut for Donnie Darko (aka Donnie Darko for Dummies). They need everything handed to them with full explanation.

Maybe the people reviewing this don't like films that feel like real life turned up to max? But that's what it is. It shows how twisted life can be - just when one thing starts looking up, you find another three reasons why it isn't. And just when you think you know someone, you realize you don't know them at all.

The film has a perfect cast, capable direction and cinematography, a decent script, great music, and it had me engaged from the opening shot. I would like to say that it would be nice for the characters to be expanded a bit (also the runtime) because it is all worth exploring more. But, it is also to be said that the vagueness of it all was intentional for purpose of timed reveal.

I rate it a solid 7/10 (gave it a 10/10 to boost the ratings)
