Cetiri ruze

Acting in general is nice, but the story is very poor. It is not movie worth watching.

The beginning of the movie tries - to a certain degree of success - to follow narrative of modern crime movies with telling the story through the eyes of one of the protagonists in retrospect, but doesn't deliver in the end. It fell short of providing any substance, in a way that it opens up many questions, touches on many topics, but doesn't build on that and just leaves the audience hanging and wanting more. Writers of the movie are once again slaves to the typical Serbian movie trope, where protagonists have to be some good-for-nothing blokes, who want to go big-time but end up getting involved way more than they initially expected, along with turbo-folk music blaring here and there, and some cheap Serbian hookers as a cherry on top. Four Roses doesn't bring anything new to Serbian, let alone world, cinema, leaving much to be desired, and trying to pander to the audiences tastes by cheap plot, typical vulgar jokes we have heard so many times, and leaving many things unexplained, unanswered and not-built-upon. To sum it up, not worth anyone's time, especially going to the cinema and supporting this piece of crap movie.

Although I didn't have any expectations about this movie prior to watching it, I was bitterly disappointed. I would describe it as an empty, meandering and uneventful waste of time. Storyline was not only poorly developed but it wasn't developed at all. What we can see in the movie is a very chaotic set of undeveloped urban hedonists wandering over the vapor of emptiness with a touch of undefined substances. The movie is filled with meaningless fillers such as girls twerking, drinking cocktails and talking prosaicness. Obviously, the screenwriters are huge fans and were trying to follow the trace of Tarantino but have lost themselves somewhere down the drain. Almost every single actor in this movie appears as an ironic stereotype of themselves from some earlier movies. As usual, Gordan Kicic has one face expression in this movie (as well as in all other his movies) which leads you to conclusion that he is not one of the characters in this movie but a part of a scenography, irritant decoration of this wanna-be night club. The only reason for giving this movie 2 stars instead of just 1 is the selection of music, which is refreshingly good.

This isn't your typical Hollywood film but I'd thought give it a go after watching the trailer on YouTube. This is an original European film, with a message and a bit of history about the 90's in Serbia. A really interesting film, thumbs up!

Dynamic movie which going into variety of urban subcultures. Lot of characters, very content story that is easy to follow. The film carries a strong message to all those who survived the 1990s in Serbia and from afar observe what the culture of the 1990s transformed today. It illuminates the stereotype of nightlife in Belgrade, what it really is and what its must-have elements are. In very good approach, it leaves a mark on the days we are living.
