Review of Bolero

Bolero (I) (2004)
9/10
Vastly underrated
12 January 2009
The first time I saw the movie I simply could not follow it. It is a Czech language one and no English language dubbed version was available. It is not an action movie so it would be impossible to follow from the visuals alone.

I searched for subtitles for it and finally found them on a obscure web site. Just to understand it I ripped the CD & incorporated the subtitles. Even than I had to pause intermittently to be able to read the subtitle text. I guess the Czech language is more efficient than English.

My entire perception changed. It is an excellent movie, very well made.

I somehow have a feeling that the majority of the voters could not follow it due to language problem.

Very definitely worth seeing. Far better than any of those Hollywood churns out that depend on foul language, unnecessary and importantly unbelievable action, unrelated female nudity.
