Lots of screaming girls and tough guys
Rating: 4/10
It's your usual 'young people get trapped (this time underground) and
have to fight for their lives against mutants' movie.
It's all very much in the Wrong Turn vein. You know, the cast are good
looking. There are lots of pretty, short-skirted females screaming the
place down. The guys run around all tough and are, funnily enough, the
easiest slain.
But underground it's dark, and thus we're often faced with a too dark
picture. Half the time I couldn't see what was going on.
The ending couldn't have come quick enough as I was becoming
increasingly bored with this movie. It's 'b' rated stuff, nothing
special.
Storyline The story follows an underground weapons manufacturer in Belgrade during WWII and evolves into fairly surreal situations. A black marketeer who smuggles the weapons to partisans doesn't mention to the workers that the war is over, and they keep producing. Years later, they break out of their underground "shelter" --- only to convince themselves that the war is still going on.

Brilliant Cracking Thriller!!......
Rating: 10/10
Those who have seen "Underground" have probably noticed that we are not
watching one film but a collection of at least 10 films in one single
masterpiece!!
I watched with great enthusiasm the work of Kusturica after
"Underground" in films like "Arizona Dream" or "Black Cat White Cat"
films which prove to be more elaborate and "smoother" in terms of
direction (brilliant works as well!!) but none of these films could
ever equal the "nerve" and strength of a very young Kusturica at his
best! One could see the passion and boldness that is at stake in this
motion picture. It's as if he gambled his own life doing "Underground"
How else can you describe this work of art if not a mixture of devilish
and holy images that take the shape of a flawless piece of
theater-dance!!
The actors speak, dance and create (more than interpret) with a vigor
rarely found outside the Balkan Circle!
In terms of theatrical aesthetics the film incorporates Stanislavski(
realism at its best), Brecht (at certain points the actors step out of
their roles and mock at themselves) and Artaud (they are flames more
than humans)
