I found this movie very enjoyable, with quality above average but not masterly. Maybe mostly because I am half Hungarian I found this film extremely moving. The story is ok and I disagree that it's overlong. Some parts were very good, and I looked the historical material. But there are also several flaws. It doesn't feel entirely genuine. In the first part everything's too clean to be believable and so are the costumes and other things. The acting is ok but nothing special. I just disliked the grandmother who was way too British and 0% Hungarian, happy when her grandson's in jail and all and with that annoying smile it felt like I was watching the commercial for Werther's Originals. And the love stories...fine but did they all have to be on the theme 'already married with your brother'? I also terrible missed Hungarian dialogues...I guess this way it gets bigger audience, but artisticly...
3/5.
