Smoleńsk

Honestly, it's so stupid that instead of watching a movie and judging it subjectively according to their own beliefs, they judge it negatively because no matter how someone told them to, I rate it 5 stars because I don't think that the whole truth is shown there, but this movie is by no means directed by Patryk vege, so it should not be the worst movie.

The movie becomes boring very soon as the course of action is predictable and based on a single assumption about the root cause of this fatal accident. That makes the story one-dimensional and trivial. The narrative is basic and pushing into a basic conclusion. The characters are very plain and acted badly.

Very inconvenient for previous government (Platforma Obywatelska - Civic Platform with Donald Tusk) who was guilty of too many mistakes and for people supporting that government (so call lemmings - called that because of their self destructive nature) therefore so many low scores. Film is based on real events that happened after the crash - manipulation of mainstream televisions, politicians involved in same, sudden deaths of people who knew anything about the crash which proved that there was definitely something more behind it than mainstream media were telling people. That film is showing the whole net of connections between politicians, government and media in a mission to cover up what happened in Smolensk. I must admit - it's not the best actors play however very good scenario.

What most reviewers and voters are missing - it is NOT documentary, so it simply can't be judged as one. You wouldn't expect "Abraham Lincoln vs. Zombies" to be judged only basing on historical accuracy would you? Basically it is a movie that bends some facts to make those events more dramatic and movie itself more entertaining. It is listed as "Drama, Thriller, Inspired by true events" and it does a quite good job as that if you use some common sense.

Sure, Hollywood productions with 10-50 times bigger budgets give you more bang for those few bucks spent on tickets, but it is worth seeing anyway.

Music is decent, acting is fairly good most of the time, there is few bits that could use more post processing as it is fairly noticeable that those are green screen scenes.

Sure it has plenty of flaws, some (mainly script) are even critical ones - no one would plant multiple exploding devices on the plane when just one is enough, plus - there must be many other ways to destroy a plane without leaving any actual evidence. But again - it is a FICTION loosely based on actual events. It is not a work of investigative journalist but just entertainment.

All in all - worth seeing if that topic even remotely interest you.

I've watched this movie two times. First in the cinema, and recently at home. I cannot honestly find any upsides in it. The plot is "thin" and "expected". Acting is very poor and completely unrealistic. Overall it is a very bad movie. I don't recommend it unless you've enjoyed Killer Tomatoes Attack France and you just watch it for laugh.
