5 Days of War

5 Days of War takes a very interesting topic to tell from the journalist's point of view. Overall, war journalists have had a number of interesting films lately. However, some are good, others average, and it is not important what horrors the war film will exploit. This actually happened in every war conflict, but what the film gives me after watching it had a huge problem with that. Yes, it showed the beauty of Georgia, which pleased me a lot, and the action was also not bad at all, but it all had such an unnatural expression, when the main hero escapes death from a frying pan in almost every scene, and on top of that, some, for me in such a film, incomprehensible story line about a love affair that didn't interest me at all. In the end, the film has good shots, good action, but an incredibly bad story that really brings it down. Anyway, the film still forced me to read more about the war conflict, which also convinced me that the film does not try to be objective at all in that conflict, but blames everything on Russia. But what saddens me the most is the fact that politicians are once again deciding the fate of a country with such beautiful nature and history, but as soon as war comes to this country, no one cares at that moment. Unfortunately. (09/04/2012)

A bit of journalism propaganda, but why not, I actually believed that national hero. The unusually personal relationship between the two main characters – thumbs up. The stuff Renny Harlin can film for 20 million – thumbs up again. It's not as grand and technically polished as other films with a bigger budget and similar theme, but within the indie style, it's a well-made thing, simple and straightforward. The basic things and values are said very clearly and without scruples. And the opening scene in the car is one of the best I've ever seen. (01/03/2012)
