I love this movie completely! I went to see it in a Friday evening, 9 PM, but it won my full attention from the first line! I have enjoyed every single second of its 3 hours although I was tired and it changed my spirit, made me laugh, made me think, made me happy. It is a movie created from our very essence as a nation, from our each and every archetype, from our collective or individual beliefs, but with a director touch of genius that makes the movie to be an incredible story and an amazing movie experience. It is, for sure a state of mind movie, but, at the same time, I believe it's one movie that builds its own state into your mind. The thing I loved the most about the movie is the dynamics of the characters, each being its own archetype and what happens between them is completely delusional (in its best sense). The choice of the actors - truly inspired, every one fits its character best and it feels like you are really in that apartment with them as the synergy created is so well built. Highly recommend it! Congrats to our talented directors, for such an incredible year for the Romanian movie scene!

winter sleep of our conscience, the Romanian way
relatable and relaxing
Similar to Roma (2018). Meaning, good insight into culture, society, and reminds me of environments from personal experience (relatable). Relaxing, I could actually smell this movie, probably because it is so realistic and real as if I am in that room. Reminds us of typical society problems like arguing, rush, crowd, parking space, lack of peace... Also bit good discussion topic like conspiracy theory of 9/11 and other crimes and gore videos. But as a movie this is boring, too long, time waster, tiring, useless... Only good insight into typical citizens apartments lives. High presence of nature, environment, the usual daily things. Bit of nostalgia, association, and drowsiness occupied my mind and body. Not too much like a movie bit like live camera or spy camera.
A Film of Nevroses
First of all, the film is too long, it does mot seem edited. Then the topic is the same old Communist story. The characters are simply nevrotic, being the exponents of a nevrotic society. The continuous noise in the background makes Sirranevada another Romanuan film with serious sound problems. The characters are 100%represemtative fir Bucharest, they speak as if they barked all the time, nobody smiles, there is mo moment of silence. Consewuently the viewer will be left with a terrible headache at the end, withe the feeling of witnessing an unfinished, unedited film, with a title that does not have anything to do with the narrative. A total waste of time, an awful piece of cinema with no meaning.
