Review of Murina (2022) by Lorfgt — 25 Jul 2022

Typical low effort pretentious slav misery porn arthouse film. The director is your usual self hating croat **** venting about her daddy issue and portraying Croatia as some hellhole every slavoid is trying to escape. I have to echo what a lot of user reviews here and on IMDB have writer. This almost type of fetishisation of Balkan/Eastern European filmmakers have with portraying their country as hell on earth when statistically speaking they’re safer and better to live in than the majority of countries on earth (especially Croatia). It’s like it’s almost a template designed by these hacks to cash in on this pretentious type of way foreigners are used to viewing countries like Croatia .

The story is about some self absorbed brat leeching off her father, whom the film desperately tries to portray as strong willed and rebellious, and yet her stunning and brave act of rebellion is to whore herself to some rich foregin guy in the hopes he will take her away from her father. Because at the end of that day that’s the only thing Eastern Euro slav hoes are capable of doing-whoring themselves to the first foreigner they see and then complain and over exaggerate how horrible their life is in their country, instead actually of doing something worthwhile and making a change. They fetishes themselves and act like special princesses that the whole world wants and yet don’t bring anything else of value to the table besides how much everyone wants to **** them.

To the director of the story-I’m sorry your daddy didn’t give you enough hugs, but please try to get better material. It may impress gullible foreigners who view this type of tripe as high art, but to those of us living here and have seen a dozen of these types of films, it’s extremely boring, predictable and eye rolling.
