"Created a craze for domestic cinematography, about 90000 viewers. After that everything moved, people got used to Croatian film" - Vitez
"The music was an impressive element, it held everything together." - Vitez
"It was a decent film." - Vitez
"My favourite distributors, Continental film, who, by the way, *beep* me up as much as they could have, distributed this film and were so professional that they managed to take this predestined hit from another producer!" - Vitez - DirectorDrazen ZarkovicStarsKresimir KanizajDrazen KuhnTeo OsarcevicTwo loyal, aging fans of a low-league amateur team look forward when shady upstart wants to invest his money, so that the side would go pro and make it to the top flight. However their enthusiasm quickly vanishes as they realize that the businessman sees only profit, without much true love for the club."The director (Dražen Žarković, who also directed a sequel to 'Koko and the Ghosts' (2011), "Mysterious boy", op. a.) is a friend of mine, I even acted as a football player in his 'Ajmo, žuti'." - Vitez
- DirectorBranko IstvancicStarsMarko PavlovRobert VássEna IkicaA brother and sister, Miron and Melita, go to visit their friend Zoltan (Liptus) in Kopacevo for winter vacation. The local residents and hunting lodge members there are involved in a big campaign to help the wild animals from the reserve to survive the winter. The same night Miron and Melita arrive, a boy named Halasz is found half-frozen at the edge of the swamp where, he raves, that he was attacked by a white ghost on one of the islands of the swamp. From then on, he can no longer talk. The old woman Etelka reveals the secret that the ghost had been first seen long ago and that you cannot go to the island because the ghost wreaks vengeance on anyone stepping onto the island. Fear takes hold in the place. The hunters, with Vucevic, Kovacevic and Levay taking the lead, begin an investigation however neither they nor the doctors can help Halasz. Therefore Miron, Liptus and Melita decide to find the ghost and offer to carry it off the island to the shore in exchange making their friend well again. However, the ghost shoots and wounds the hunter Levay proving that the ghost is much more dangerous than was previously thought."Not a decent Croatian film, but people nevertheless went to see it. It was scrap! Since it was a film based upon a primary school required reading, movie going was organized, it reached some ratings and it became a contention for people to go see it." - Vitez
- DirectorMilan BlazekovicStarsIvan GudeljevicMaja RozmanTarik FilipovicFed up with the harsh treatment his master has given him, a brave little mouse (and later his dog, Brewster) sets off on an adventure."One of the most viewed domestic films" - Sedlar
"Animation in this film is a catastrophe. It's like you watch a dyslexic cartoon on acid in which nobody is stationary, even when characters stand they dance, wave their little hands... It looks like a hippie...you know... " - Vitez
"It probably has different colors in the background, too." - Sedlar - DirectorMilan BlazekovicStarsJosip MarottiVili MatulaLjubo KaporA painter who can temporarily talk to the creatures of an enchanted forest must help them stop the evil Cactus King, who's building an army of magical living weapons and machines to turn the forest into a wasteland perfect for the cacti."A decent film made by the same director (Milan Blažeković) as 'Šegrt Hlapić' (1997)" - Vitez
- DirectorJosko MarusicStarsKresimir MikicJanko Popovic VolaricThe story of a hidden war, a war between generations, war in which always children lose. Through a dramatic and picturesque tale, we discover two legends intertwining - a legend of a father and a son, and of a young girl Srna who is profoundly affected by the harshness of the world and decides to take a walk beneath the rainbow to transform into a boy. The film's message is intended for all parents: Talk to your children before it is too late!"...and then Joško Marušić created this film and boasted about how he will earn a million euros with it, and if not, he knows nothing about animation. As far as I know, if he didn't sell it to a foreign television and earned something abroad, he is far from that digit... and it again was a required read in primary school." - Vitez
- DirectorTomislav RukavinaStarsDoris PincicIvan HercegFilip Juricic'Lara's Choice: The Lost Prince' is a 2012 Croatian movie based on the popular television show 'Lara's Choice'. The plot is a direct continuation of the first season finale."One of these [terrible] movies, with 70 to 80 thousand viewers. If Blitz took it to their cinemas it would have many more, you know." - Vitez
"I would connect this to addiction. It was a TV series, so viewers would get a shot of it every day, and during the summer, when there was no shots, they had to do something about it." - Vitez - DirectorIvan-Goran VitezStarsIvo GregurevicIvan GlowatzkyDean KrivacicCroatian countryside. Middle of the night. Darko, owner of the local agricultural discount-shop wakes up the vicar of the small parish church to reveal his own dark secret to him. But that's not the only thing Darko is planning to reveal to vicar."They should make a contemporary film for children called 'Koko and the holy wafer' in which Koko and his gang would oppose the Church and fight against an evil pedophile." - Sedlar
"I made a similar film 'Posljednja pričest', I should remake it with Koko and prolong it to an hour and a half." - Vitez - StarsKruno MartinovicNikola PokupcicDora Lipovcan"It had a catchy tune, but we won't sing it! (laugh)" - Vitez
"I auditioned for the role of Koko, and I was listed pretty high, but at that point I already quit my acting career..." - Vitez
"I thanked them and refused the role." - Vitez - DirectorBranko SchmidtStarsMarija AleksicMira FurlanBoris Miholjevic"As a child I acted quite a lot. At the age of 5 I even acted in a graduate film by Branko Smidt called 'Rano sazrijevanje Marka kovača' and I was the title character Marko Kovač, a boy about the age of 5 or 6, who's mother is diagnosed with a breast cancer, Mira Furlan played her, and it leads to a dissolution of marriage... actually how he matures during those few months. When I watch this film today, the child, who was me... I can't believe how good this child acts." - Vitez
- DirectorPetar KreljaStarsAnja Sovagovic-DespotZarko LausevicMiodrag KrivokapicYoung social worker falls in love with a delinquent girl on the run.Before that ('Operation Barbarossa' (1990), op. a.) I acted in 'Stela' by Petar Krelja and I was very well recieved, I even got an award for a child actor on a film festival in Niš. I was commended so I already became suspicious about myself, but today when I look at myself I am no less suspicious. At that time, Nenad Polimac in an critic in Globus, wrote that the film has a lot of underestimated acting interpretations, for example Vanja Matujec and some overestimated, like Ivan Goran Vitez, which came to me, a thirteen year old, quite as a shock, although he was right!" - Vitez
- DirectorZack SnyderStarsJackie Earle HaleyPatrick WilsonCarla GuginoIn a version of 1985 where superheroes exist, the murder of a colleague sends active vigilante Rorschach on the trail of a conspiracy that will change the course of history."When I was visiting friends in New York few years ago, we scheduled the trip for march 6th to see the 'Watchmen? premiere. So we watched the 'Watchmen', and during my stay I wanted to see something else, but there was nothing else to watch, because they played only Oscar-nominated films, Negro comedies and comedies for teens and adolescents like 'I Love You, Man' (2009)... - Vitez
- DirectorJohn HamburgStarsPaul RuddJason SegelRashida JonesFriendless Peter Klaven goes on a series of man-dates to find a Best Man for his wedding. But, when his insta-bond with his new B.F.F. puts a strain on his relationship with his fiancée, can the trio learn to live happily ever after?"...actually for a bit older audience of immature twenty year olds who haven't got laid enough." - Vitez
- DirectorSeth GordonStarsJason BatemanMelissa McCarthyJohn ChoMild mannered businessman Sandy Patterson travels from Denver to Florida to confront the deceptively harmless looking woman who has been living it up after stealing Sandy's identity."I wanted to watch a top grossing film, which is 'Identity Theft' for which I had absolutely no interest - it didn't repel me, it didn't attract me." - Vitez
- DirectorRic Roman WaughStarsDwayne JohnsonSusan SarandonJon BernthalA father goes undercover for the DEA in order to free his son, who was imprisoned after being set up in a drug deal."The second grossing film which just started showing is this 'Snitch' so we can talk about that." - Vitez
"It is starring Dwayne Johnson, 'The Rock', former American football player, who switched to film business." - Vitez
"What kind of a movie is this, a complete cliché, he plays a father, an undercover cop who infiltrates among the drug dealers, because his son was arrested as one of the dealers, although the son claims he's innocent, that he's not a dealer, and now his father will infiltrate among them to arrest them so that he could free his son... for god's sake, what the *beep*?! - Vitez
"First of all, there is no drama here when you see him, a giant who will infiltrate as an undercover... It would be much more interesting if Rick Moranis would infiltrate... you know!" - Sedlar
"I could watch this film only if it was written by Shane Black. In that case you would have *beep* great one-liners... that could pull off such a film" - Sedlar
"No, I mean, this *beep* is the second grossing film this weekend and it is completely unexpected for everyone. A film shot with minimum wages so they could throw in a few stunt actions... In my opinion it is a film genre for YNA cadets who got a free weekend so they can go to the cinema, you know, instead of getting laid. Or before getting laid!" - Vitez
"Just look at the cast for this movie: Susan Sarandon, for *beep*'s sake, that's also a very strange matter... apparently they have to eat something, too. Pay the swimming pool rent, and stuff like that." - Vitez & Sedlar
"You know what's interesting: who directed this film? That is the dissection of this *beep* I wanted to mention, because this looks to me like a *beep* on a porcelain plate... this porcelain part is very suspicious: when you see it from afar, the trailer and all, it looks good, but then I was like: 'who the *beep* is Rick Roman Waugh?', and guess what, he's a stuntman! I read then on Wikipedia that his first script was written by the same guy who wrote 'Revolutionary Road' (2008), with Kate Winslet and Leonardo "the Frown" DiCaprio, I haven't seen it, but I heard it was a bit more ambitious film, so I was confused seeing such a writer falling in this sort of a thing, but then I read that the development of the film began around 2004 and few years ago Dwayne Johnson dropped in the whole thing, so they brought this stuntman to direct it. That's why it looks to me as if it was 'the Rock's' attempt... because it is some kind of an action drama, with social elements... his attempt to exhibit himself as a more serious actor, with a serious range of roles, so they brought this gofer who will practically do anything... this is just my projection..." - Sedlar & Vitez
"I'm worried because this film, having achieved this success, could make the stuntman want to direct something more, the next film will get more funds for production!" - Vitez
"He's not even interested in profit, he's only interested in flipping a car over for three times in the film. He probably gets an erection seeing those things." - Vitez & Sedlar
"This is the kind of film Steven Seagal used to do when he was young." - Vitez
"We expect Dwayne Johnson to be nominated for an Academy Award next year, based on this film." - Vitez - DirectorPeter BergStarsDwayne JohnsonSeann William ScottChristopher WalkenA tough aspiring chef is hired to bring home a mobster's son from the Amazon but becomes involved in the fight against an oppressive town operator and the search for a legendary treasure."Personally, I find 'The Rock' ok, even though he looks like a gipsy on steroids, in that action film with Stiffler, 'Welcome to the Jungle' I think it was called." - Sedlar
- DirectorJohn CarpenterStarsChevy ChaseDaryl HannahSam NeillAfter a freak accident, a company executive turns completely invisible, goes on the run and becomes hunted by a treacherous CIA official, whilst trying to cope with his new reality.Chevy Chase *beep* up his and John Carpenters career in the same manner [as Waugh did with Johnson for 'Snitch' (2013), op. a.] with 'Invisible man', which is in my opinion a pretty good film. He wanted to be a supporter of comedy roles, while Carpenter wanted it to be a bit more serious, so they both pulled to their own sides and it ended up ruining their careers, which they never recovered from." - Sedlar
- DirectorBryan SingerStarsNicholas HoultStanley TucciEwan McGregorThe ancient war between humans and a race of giants is reignited when Jack, a young farmhand fighting for a kingdom and the love of a princess, opens a gateway between the two worlds."This film hits theaters next week so we will talk about it, and Singer. we can unwrap a lot of layers in this one, a lot of connections, but we can also go back to 'Princess Bride' you mentioned earlier." - Vitez & Sedlar
- DirectorClark JohnsonStarsSamuel L. JacksonColin FarrellMichelle RodriguezAn imprisoned drug kingpin offers a huge cash reward to anyone that can break him out of police custody, and only the L.A.P.D.'s Special Weapons and Tactics team can prevent it."We have it in a prime time on a Croatian TV channel this weekend (March 2nd, 2013)" - Vitez
- DirectorFrancis LawrenceStarsWill SmithAlice BragaCharlie TahanYears after a plague kills most of humanity and transforms the rest into monsters, the sole survivor in New York City struggles valiantly to find a cure."We have it in a prime time on a Croatian TV channel this weekend (March 2nd, 2013)" - Vitez
- DirectorByron HowardChris WilliamsStarsJohn TravoltaMiley CyrusSusie EssmanThe canine star of a fictional sci-fi/action show that believes his powers are real embarks on a cross country trek to save his co-star from a threat he believes is just as real."We have a Tv premiere in a prime time on a Croatian TV channel this weekend (March 2nd, 2013)" - Vitez
- DirectorJohn HamburgStarsBen StillerJennifer AnistonDebra MessingA buttoned-up newlywed finds his strictly organized life descend into chaos when he falls in love with an old classmate."We have it in a prime time on a Croatian TV channel this weekend (March 2nd, 2013)" - Vitez
- DirectorGeorge LucasStarsHayden ChristensenNatalie PortmanEwan McGregorThree years into the Clone Wars, Obi-Wan Kenobi pursues a new threat, while Anakin Skywalker is lured by Chancellor Palpatine into a sinister plot to rule the galaxy."We have it in a prime time on a Croatian TV channel this weekend (March 3rd, 2013)" - Vitez
"We already talked about Star Wars, so we won't talk about this one." - Vitez
"This one is the best of the three. It's viewable." - Sedlar - DirectorMarcus NispelStarsJared PadaleckiAmanda RighettiDerek MearsA group of young adults visit a boarded up campsite named Crystal Lake where they soon encounter the mysterious Jason Voorhees and his deadly intentions."You wanted us to say a few words on 'Friday the 13th'." - Vitez
"Wait, this is not the first 'Friday the 13th'? No, this is a remake! - Vitez
"It is also a remake of what later became of 'Friday the 13th' - Sedlar
"The sequels are made on the same pattern, Jason appears, they add the mask ... They just took the winning formula, so to speak, and continued to produce the films just like 'Police Academy' was produced. And now, some *beep* goes to remake this..." - Sedlar
"The best part of a remake are the people behind the camera: producer Michael Bay and the director, who made the new 'Conan' - the two of them, it's like... have you watched 'Mistery men' (1999)? These are the 'Mystery men' behind the camera, that's how talented they are. So who would watch a film based on a idiotic idea produced by one of the worst directors?" - Sedlar
"Was the review good, or did it flop? Because, what worries me is people are going to watch this. You know how they say, audience can never be underestimated enough. There is a whole population of teenagers who watch every horror available, how ever trashy it was, and I don't know is it because they're drunk, or under the influence of some kind of other substances, because it is a complete brain disorder." - Vitez
"This is actually pornography..." - Vitez
"It's on TV, we recommend it to no-one. It's gonna be a shambled 'Friday the 13th', anyway." - Vitez - DirectorSean S. CunninghamStarsBetsy PalmerAdrienne KingJeannine TaylorA group of teenage camp counselors attempt to re-open an abandoned summer camp with a tragic past, but they are stalked by a mysterious, relentless killer."I've seen only the first 'Friday the 13th', which is, like... nothing." - Vitez
"SPOILER: there is no Jason Vorhees as a killer, but his mother... in the end we find out she is the killer" - Sedlar
"Is there a hand emerging from the lake in the end?" - Vitez
"Well, yeah, but I read they put it in the film just because Kerry had an end with the hand" - Sedlar
"It was a pure, commercial... you know, let's give the people what they want and reproduce it without any inovation." - Sedlar
"It's like someone remade a Chuck Norris film, it's on that level. I have no respect for *beep* 'Friday 13th', I mean, it's rock bottom" - Sedlar
"But it became an institution and now somebody is pinning up to it." - Vitez
