Cubussoli Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Derry Herrera Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

Lachlan Coulson This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.

Curt Watching it is like watching the spectacle of a class clown at their best: you laugh at their jokes, instigate their defiance, and "ooooh" when they get in trouble.

centinel822 I generally enjoy movies that tell the (somewhat) true stories of real-life rebels and "Robin Hoods," such as William Wallace, Paan Singh Tomar, and Ned Kelley. Tadas Blinda certainly fits the mold, but this movie did not do him justice.For a "true story," Tadas Blinda, Pradzia seems pretty cliché. In fact, I was surprised at how many elements it shared with Braveheart. While the acting was not great, I am not sure if it was the fault of the actors or because some of the characters were so cartoonish, particularly Konstancija. I almost expected him to begin pulling on his mustache à la Snidely Whiplash.Of course, I did not expect production quality on par with, say, an American or Japanese film, and I was not pleasantly surprised. The editing was pretty bad in some places and the "battle" scenes felt like a "cast of dozens," which made the battles feel like little skirmishes. I was particularly bothered by the tone of the film. Something tragic would happen, and then minutes later the characters would be acting light and almost slap-sticky, or a character would be being lynched, and when freed at the last second, would immediately bond with those who were just trying to string him up. The romance also seemed a little forced, particularly with so little backstory between the two supposed lovers, and the less said about the affair sidestory the better. It just seemed like the director could not decide on what tone to set and couldn't find a good balance between the tragedy that spurred Blinda's rise to rebel leader, with the desire to show some humor and charm.That all said, the scenery was amazing -- Lithuania is a beautiful country. Agnia Ditkovskite is equally lovely and does what she can with what she had to work with. I did also enjoy the obvious conflict, not between rich and poor, but between Lithuanians, Poles, and Russians. It was an interesting view of the local politics of the time.This was not a horrible film, and there were moments of light genius. I would recommend this film to anyone who has a particular attachment to Lithuania or history. For the rest, you might want to go re-watch Braveheart.

wookieLTU This movie was a real disaster. I can't remember the last time I've been so disappointed to point of wanting a refund. Be warned,save your money. You may just want to wait until this movies airs on TV. I wouldn't recommend DVD either. A complete waste of money. The acting in some cases were very poorly executed, just terrible, the script is terrible, the characters had no depth or real like-ability unless you are fond of stereotyped clichéd characters and aren't developed in any way, the directing is terrible. It's probably the worst recent years movie ever made.No wonder Lithuanian movie business is going into the toilet. Shame on Ministry of Culture for continuing to green light this crap. Don't buy it. Don't rent it. Don't download it. You have been warned. 0/10 (If only IMDb let you score that)

dievinu The true is that I was waiting this movie all summer and when I was able to see it on the theater I was so thrilled and so excited. The main actor Mantas Jankavicius is a singer and this was his first time when he was acting, like acting for REAL and I was very impressed and very happy because he made his role perfectly! Even Agne Ditkovskyte's ,who is real actor, role wasn't so good as I expected. But altogether the acting was kind of good. The other thing which impressed me was the nature of Lithuania and how had director conveyed that beauty. Third thing why you have to see this movie is that this is maybe the first time when Lithuanians can be proud by their country in the films industry cause this film is worth to be well-known.

851222 Greetings from Lithuania.Going to be short here. This is a pretty good movie. Actually this is a very good movie and if you've seen any other movies from Lithuania, you'll know what i mean. The cast is good, and i think all actors did a really good job in this one. And as a lead Mantas Jankavicius, he is OK too. The plot (YES, a film from LT finally has one) is quite good. But the biggest star of this movie is a nature. It is breathtakingly beautiful. It's not "Gladiator" or a "Braveheart", but it's a very well made film, that will leave some audiences wanting for more. Bravo, tai gali tapti Lietuvisko kino renesansu!!!
