Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
A Disappointing Continuation
The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
I saw this in Croatia in 94. And essentially follows a Vukovar survivor (a one legged vet) as he tries to adjust to life after the siege. There is contrast to before and after of the city, has actual siege footage, and highlights the displacement issue, and post war stress.
