Highly Overrated But Still Good
As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.
All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
It takes a crafty movie maker to make a film that will linger on your mind for such a long time. And it takes a genius to write a story that will make you smile and cry. That makes you feel overwhelmed and fragile.If you've already seen this movie once, be sure you'll see it again. You'll return to it every now and then because of it's immense power to touch your soul.Old professor and archaeologist Misha suffers a hear attack just after he had discovered secret passage that connects the world of the living and the world of the dead. While in deep coma, he briefly enters the world of the dead, where he reunites with his wife who passed away many years ago, as well as with many people he used to know when they were alive.As Misha wakes up from the coma, he is actually dying for the second time, now in the world of the dead. Again, he opens the passage but this time, some of the dead want to come back to the world of the living; some of them just to ease their soul, some to settle the score, and some of them just for the fun of it."The dead cannot rest their soul because of the those who are alive". I guess that pretty much sums it up."Sabirni centar" is truly a masterpiece. A gem. If you haven't seen it yet, you have no idea how much you are missing out on.
This is a great movie. See why the dead can't find peace, because of us the alive. It is hard to see greatness of this film if you don't understand Serbian. Movie starts when professor Misa find the one thing what he was searching all his life-the passage. Soon after, he dies. The dead in their world, are one by one disappointed by things that happened in the world of a living. And when the professor Misa who died recently find out what is happening in the world of a living by his pupil who committed suicide after Misa's death, he find the passage similar to one on earth. The dead go on a journey to correct the things.
