Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good

Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

proviant 'The Last Relic' is one of the most beloved movie in Estonia. Wonderful characters, nice location shots, lighthearted adventure and clever humor. Again. Estonians love humor.Director Grigori Kromanov's first intentions were to create serious historical philosophical movie exploring the mythos of free man, but he was force to take much adventurous-romantic view point. The witty dialogue and catchy songs (that has became classics their own) really carry the film. And the songs, did the authors intend it or not, have actually quite deep meanings, and add quite much to the director's wanted philosophical point. The film is also historically quite inaccurate - the character of Ivo Schenkenberg has gotten very free artistic interpretation in this film. He is real historical person, but was known as heroic fighter and leader of Estonian fighters against Russian army in Livonian War. Of course, Soviet regime didn't like depicting him as a heroic character in the film. That aside, Schenkenberg played by Peeter Jakobi is probably one of the most memorable characters in Estonian cinema.The sword fight scenes look dame even compared to it's contemporaries. One part of that can be blamed the Soviet regime who had quite heavy regulations considering fighting and violence on the screen. At least we can get a glimpse of Ingrida Andrina's (Agnes) nipples, that somehow past the eyes of censor.

icet2004 I'm Estonian and i live in capital of Estonia/Eesti/Estland(Tallinn)I think that Viimne Reliikvia is the best Estonian movie ever that ever made.Agnes and Gabriel mean so much to Estonians to so much very much. movie year is 1969 wow old movie,but good very.music is good there all is good there.movie is actually funny too.half comedy.i recommend this movie to everyone even to Americans.songs are very good there. Viimne Reliikvia is maybe Eve Kivi's best known role.same famous like in Dzunglistaar.i also like Estonian movies 'Sigade Revolutsioon' like 'Kevade','Suvi,'Sügis' and 'Nimed Marmortahvlil'.My father likes 'Metskannikesed' and i think that Vanad Ja Kobedad is not good movie at all.

mirjam-2 This might not seem like an outstanding film to an outsider, but it is a classic in its homeland. This is the story of how men and women fought for their freedom against higher power. The acting is great, the dialogue is classic material. This is most certainly the most often quoted piece in Estonia's history of film and for a reason. Watch it if you want to see a great film that has touched a whole nation without being too serious or too patriotic, but fun and careless among other things as well. This is as good as it gets.

C.H. Sadly none of Estonian movies ever get any recognition, but if there was one Estonian movie You're interested to watch then, this one will surely make You more interested in Estonian movies. Also watch Kevade!!!
