Murph: The Protector (2013)
Another attempt to make war marketing?
He can be brave man. He can save his friends. But who was he? He was enemy soldier in foreign country. Name for that act is not "intervention" but occupation. All good reviews are based only upon one aspect: He was American idol and fighter for American interests. The truth is simple and reversed. He was an occupation soldier and anything he did is act of that kind of man. So, film that describe that kind of man and glory him as an idol and hero is only a masterpiece of occupation propaganda. Without questions, doubts, repentance or human aspect of enemy side. So, mine 1 is equally unfair as somebodies 10 for this film.
A Lonely Place to Die (2011)
Political marketing is destroying the essence
Let's not repeat the good and bad reviews that have already been imposed. Screenwriter tried to slip political opinion rather than to think about the credibility of the scenario. The girl is Serbian? But she is not speaking Serbian. She just mumbles unintelligible syllables?! Was it so hard to find a voice that will speak Serbian instead? No, it was not. Problem is in political opinion. The problem is personal animosity and hate towards everything that in its prefix has the word Serbia. Even the Serbian language was forbidden to be heard. Author confirmed that when the "good guys" mercenaries, saying: "that the girl's father is a war Serbian criminal who has committed ethnic cleansing in Kosovo, and how they broke up their ass in the war in Kosovo, in the name of higher and justifiable goals." In last scene, father of the girl is torturing the kidnapper to confirm that he is some kind of monster. Why was it necessary? To convince the audience that Serbs did all those crimes? Today, the facts are just the opposite. Serbs have been ethnically cleansed from Kosovo. As they were under attack in last two centuries. In this task, participants were and are English mercenaries and special forces, but more of that NATO marketing and political support. And there's no such propaganda that this fact can deny.
If author wanted to make a political thriller there are unnecessary all other parts of this film, including kidnapping, mountaineers and action about it. I will give 2 to this film only because of the beautiful landscapes.
