Ok

It's a good movie that is based on a real heist, as the makers of the movie say. The film follows the story of Bogdan, an ambulance driver, and indirectly the problems in the Romanian health system .The protagonist, Bogdan, manages to convey some emotions to you. The film along the way will try to have 2-3 moments with a little humor and some in the cinema hall smiled or remained indifferent . The characters (secondary or episodic) and the protagonist played well and each changed the "direction" of the action/film . In the end, the movie is a good one, with good parts but also with bad parts, but it was worth a chance .

Good acting but boring

I don't understand why most of the Romanian movies are so boring. The right length for everything that happen in this movie would be 90 minutes not 120.The movie directors don't understand the current realities where our brains are trained for speed and not able to cope with a 3 minutes scene when nothing happens or to wait 30 seconds a reply of an actor to just say one word.This style of movie would fit with the 70's of the last century. It is a pity because there are many good stories but the way how they are made are not difficult to keep interest of the viewer.I liked the main character and would love to see him in more movies.

Static, boring and trying to be "artsy".

Although the plot could have been more impressive, the actors deliver a really good performance. The "thriller" feeling is effectively conveyed to the audience through the music, color grading, and the plot itself. On the other hand, the movie lacks depth in some places. The action is quite slow and boring, and the dialogue is delivered in a manner reminiscent of a snail's pace, which feels entirely unrealistic. The camera movement is uninspired and generally static. It seems they just set up a camera on a tripod and adhere strictly to framing rules. I hope that Romanian movies will attain the fluidity and pacing of modern-day films, as it appears we are still trapped in the 1990s era of Romanian cinema.
