Somewhere in the remote region, the war ends. In the midst of ruined cities and houses in the streets, in rural hamlets, everywhere where people still live, are children who have lost their homes and parents. Abandoned, hungry, and in rags, defenseless and humiliated, they wander through the world. Hunger drives them. Little streams of orphans merge into a river which rushes forward and submerges everything in its path. The children do not know any feeling; they know only the world of their enemies. They fight, steal, struggle for a mouthful of food, and violence is merely a means to get it. A gang led by Cahoun finds a refuge in an abandoned castle and encounters an old composer who has voluntarily retired into solitude from a world of hatred, treason, and crime. How can they find a common ground, how can they become mutual friends? The castle becomes their hiding place but possibly it will also be their first home which they may organize and must defend. But even for this, the price will be very high.
To this simple story, the journalist, writer, poet, scriptwriter, movie director, and film theoretician Béla Balázs applied many years of experience. He and the director Géza Radványi created a work which opened a new postwar chapter in Hungarian film. Surprisingly, this film has not lost any of its impact over the years, especially on a profound philosophical level. That is to say, it is not merely a movie about war; it is not important in what location and in what period of time it takes place. It is a story outside of time about the joyless fate of children who pay dearly for the cruel war games of adults.
At the time it was premiered, the movie was enthusiastically received by the critics. The main roles were taken by streetwise boys of a children's group who created their roles improvisationally in close contact with a few professional actors, and in the children's acting their own fresh experience of war's turmoil appears to be reflected. At the same time, their performance fits admirably into the mosaic of a very complex movie language. Balázs's influence revealed itself, above all, in the introductory sequences: an air raid on an amusement park, seen in a montage of dramatic situations evoking the last spasms of war, where, undoubtedly, we discern the influence of classical Soviet cinematography. Shooting, the boy's escape, the locomotive's wheels, the shadows of soldiers with submachine guns, the sound of a whistle—the images are linked together in abrupt sequences in which varying shots and expressive sharp sounds are emphasized. A perfectly planned screenplay avoided all elements of sentimentality, time-worn stereotypes of wronged children, romanticism and cheap simplification. The authors succeeded in bridging the perilous dramatic abyss of the metamorphosis of a children's community. Their telling of the story (the scene of pillaging, the assault on the castle, etc) independently introduced some neorealist elements which, at that time, were being propagated in Italy by De Sica, Rossellini, and other film artists. The rebukes of contemporary critics, who called attention to "formalism for its own sake" have been forgotten. The masterly art of cameraman Barnabás Hegyi gives vitality to the poetic images. His angle shots of the children, his composition of scenes in the castle interior, are a living document of the times, and underline the atmosphere and the characters of the protagonists. The success of the picture was also enhanced by the musical art of composer Dénes Buday who, in tense situations, inserted the theme of the Marseilaise into the movie's structure, as a motive of community unification, as an expression of friendship and the possibility of understanding.
Valahol Europaban is the first significant postwar Hungarian film. It originated in a relaxed atmosphere, replete with joy and euphoria, and it includes these elements in order to demonstrate the strength of humanism, tolerance, and friendship. It represents a general condemnation of war anywhere in the world, in any form.
这部电影的原题材应该是圣经中何西阿书和妓女的故事。爱是恒久忍耐，又有恩慈；爱是不嫉妒；爱是不自夸，不不做害羞的事，不求自己的益处，不轻易发怒。这部电影较好的诠释了，爱应该是怎么样的。
Dynamisme ludique, personnages sans relief, scénario simpliste fan service divertissant, en soit, adaptation passable qui remplit bien le cahier des charges? 2.5
爆米花一下……是太无聊的剧情。内容到表演，油腻的一塌糊涂。
虽然剧情是2～4部缝合怪，老婆和哥哥都没出场，虽然没有爬哪哪塌，但我太激动了！青少年期的Sam和Nate的演员找的好像，还有孤儿院，和游戏里几乎一模一样！是第一个泪点；第二个是教堂，和游戏里好像，我在这里真的死了无数次；第三个泪点是Nate唯一的爬墙动作，出现在海盗船出现，那段回忆起和哥哥海岛游的快乐；最后一个泪点当然就是Nate穿上了枪挂，然后主题曲响起，他终于成了Nate！我能期待一下连着五部电影吗！苏利文电影里太壮了太能打了像赵文卓演唐僧，荷兰弟比Nate不性感的多，但多次topless好评。就接受吧。以及Nate配音演员的彩蛋好评！！！啊期待第二部！
我必医治他们背道的病，
22#6 全系列游戏都通关了，带着粉丝滤镜来看。整体剧本挺尴尬的，前面更是闹着玩一样，拍卖会已经够弱智了，在下水道里能藏着密室更是绝，真是不把市政看在眼里，雇佣兵反水虽然是常识，但也太草率了一点……不过后半段渐入佳境，在内森留下坐标之后，整个味道就对了。尤其是海空战，非常舒爽。所以还是很期待第二部！
大反派的结局挺出人意料的，本来以为由男主对决的戏码没有上演，若是，也难免落于俗套了，故事情节不复杂但过程蛮曲折，说明感情不是简单的AB面，难免的挣扎和彷徨。
挺规整的商业片，飞机上降落那场戏还是挺激动人心的
影迷群的赠票看的，插科打诨中规中矩，双男主化学反应一般，荷兰弟跑酷动作可以，给假坐标我猜到了，怎么看怎么可爱这家伙，一笑起来:-D真的想rua哈哈哈哈
接下来的节奏太沉缓了，严重影响观感。
杀时间 这部和蜘蛛侠勉为其难选了一部 感觉蜘蛛侠会更油腻。想看肉ins上一大堆干什么要看丑脸明星？？？？商业片实在没什么好说 就是杀时间产物而已 任何文本人物分析都过于一厢情愿
基督徒一大爱好，就是想让风尘女子从良，对方却不为所动！
安全线内完成了一次真人改编，无脑爽片。荷兰弟倒是和吴磊越来越像了，油腻程度也是。
新印第安纳琼斯系列。只是钥匙开来开去是不是有点老土了。
基督教电影最大的问题就在于，巧合太多，且在关键性转变的时刻放弃叙事、把一切交给主的做功，但对于非信仰群体来说，故事的魅力就在于这些痛苦和纠结之后产生的转变，突转更需要层层编制的细致铺垫，这也是为什么现实生活中的见证分享会有奇妙恩典之感（因为神迹就是充满偶然性，救赎就是突转，神就是爱），而等量放在电影里就只会让人觉得不真实。/又是一部信仰和非信仰群里观感严重两分的作品……哎。
就好似穿越回十几年前，《夺宝奇兵》一类的探险题材，论视效都比不上《木乃伊》，全靠荷兰弟赚眼球。
除了观赏性上，本片也几乎没有别的优点了。勉强四星吧。
很一般，但可看，也就是说，娱乐大片最基本的就是可看嘛。
故事框架上没有逃出夺宝类型片的限制，只能靠动作戏和调侃段子拉回一些观感，动作戏的编排上还是非常过瘾的，有意地致敬了成龙的一些动作电影，荷兰弟在动作戏上还是很拼的，但是电影比较大的问题是主角之间缺乏互动感，荷兰弟和沃尔伯格的年龄差距真的太大了，说段子调侃也没有激起笑点。（6.5/10）
除了爆米花标配的名胜古迹场景，一些set pieces还是有些看头的。荷兰弟的武打元素竟然特别成龙，预告里的吊灯戏份明显来自于警察故事/尖峰时刻。
