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.
4. 全片太多对白 又夹杂了诸多英文梗 换皮泰囧做实.
片子集搞笑亲情及历史科普于一身，推荐所有朋友去看～
很对不起这么说但是是真的😭😭😭
好虐可是好喜欢！……看到凌晨三点实在太困了上午醒来又继续接着看……男主乍一看挺帅仔细一看又很普通看久了又觉得还是好看的(笑死)，喜欢他的房间(论有宅男哥哥的有用性)……以为的(并且冲着的)happy end不是一首歌而是一个乐队(我之前应该是知道的但是我忘了果咩)，意外的更喜欢world's end girlfriend的「girl」，片头和片尾用上太绝了……虽然是初中生的爱情(？)故事，还是告诉我们——不要靠近男人，会变得不幸(我：男的怎么会一直喜欢你呢妹妹)(虽然我好希望男女主可以谈普通的恋爱哦🤧)
充满爱意的做，看起来很可爱的啫，我还是不能被你拿捏，一些奇怪的点，帮助女孩子找到了更大的海
儿童向动画片，结构完整，逻辑自洽，节奏恰当，情节详略得当有反转，人物性格鲜明有成长。爱德竟是最大赢家，拯救族群、巩固亲情、收获爱情与友情。O妹是个可爱的惹祸精，冲动又勇敢，还是个不折不扣的兄控。谁能想到这么可爱的白颂德，居然是白送的，还是大Boss！5岁智商的浩宝其实是个团宠。
开场后一开始确实也不太受得了女主的独白，但是一进到r15戏我突然察觉了导演的功力，只要看到两个主人公的脸，就自然进入到戏里。这种接近乎切身的感受甚至持续到结尾最后一场戏。
谁说我们不需要烂片。Channing在脱衣舞男之前就已经是我儿时偶像，谁让他又帅跳舞又好看。他在布拉德皮特出场镜头的星星眼那段，简直太好玩了，后者竟然没死太棒了，真的还想再看看只会正经的硬汉如何在耍宝电影中找到自己的定位！
陪娃看非常好！小朋友第一次完整看完一部电影，值得纪念
败笔在跨物种的爱情线和那个杂交蛋…
错误的开始 错误的结束 或许男孩是比女孩更成熟一点
勉强及格～选角与情节场景本来可以拍个不错的爆米花电影，可惜不知道谁的野心，要把地摊文学提起来黑色幽默一番，就很尴尬～喜欢看这类书的不会看出来讽刺，不喜欢看的不会懂其中的吐槽。
本来想打个盹的，结果被吸引。
七星，一星给配音，配的很接地气。很热闹搞笑，小朋友看的很欢快！
每年不知道要看多少垃圾日影才能遇上这么一部生猛的新作。对爱与性的探寻与青春的迷茫和孤独交织，说不清的复杂感情反而纯真的让人不忍亵渎。两次犹豫不决的亲吻，一场忽然放晴的台风，然后青春便如同梦魇一般刹那间消失的无影无踪。剪辑和配乐很有风格，两位小演员近乎完美。4+
前半段还是很好笑的，从小白变成反派的那一刻起……后面的剧情套路也太中国了吧。。。
用时空穿越串联起很多元素，有点俗套，小白黑化有些突兀。
1. 布拉德皮特也太好笑了吧 因此前半程剧情还能支撑. 相比之下 叫塔图姆的果然都比较 拉垮.
甜甜圈的可爱我完全感受不到！
寻找小白的那段时空传越很有意思 小朋友不一定看的懂
