Review of Fuse

Fuse (2003)
10/10
Pjer Zalica, a name to remember
6 February 2005
When I looked at the vote I could not believe it scored a 6.9. I'm happy to see that many voters gave this film a straight 10, which I concur with wholeheartedly. Surely the 1's and 2's are not about the film, possibly politically motivated. The film has a lot to tell, and does so in a very intelligent way. These are real people, the thin veneer of magic realism adds to the atmosphere and reminds us of how absurd life often is. The film shows us the aftermath of an ethnic conflict, yet irony beats tragedy, game, set and match in this film. Superb acting, fast paced, good montage. History tends to paint big events in black and white, yet with this film the viewer realizes again that on a human scale life if full of nuances.
