max-van-power Review of Who's Singin' Over There?

Who's Singin' Over There? (1980)

Nice little comedy with that special Balkan feeling

[6/10 · 2 December 2009]

I watched this movie, because it was in the top ten comedies of IMDb. It took me into a world that is absolutely alien to me. So maybe you have to be from Serbia to fully enjoy it. Overall I liked the movie. The story was well paced, the characters convincing and the actors were great. Nevertheless, from the ratings I expected a little bit more. So maybe my expectations were too high. The story is full of twists and ideas that are on the brink of being funny. But I didn't get quite into it. Maybe because I felt more like an outsider than an insider. The film is well worth a watch, but to me it is not the master piece that I expected.
