We Are Not Angels 3: Rock & Roll Strike Back Trailers

We Are Not Angels III is a Serbian film. In 1973 during a Youth Work Action, budding musician Borko Pavić (Nikola Pejaković) is disappointed to find out that the majority of his fellow young workers prefer to dance kolo to folkish harmonica sounds rather than listening to him play his acoustic guitar. Heartbroken and depressed he confides in his best friend that he read that in America the young people make the devil appear by playing the music backwards who then makes them rich and famous. He becomes the mega popular rock'n'roll superstar Dorijan. Cut to 30+ years later Dorijan is still a debauched, coke-snorting, and alcoholic superstar, except that he's now playing turbo folk instead of rock'n'roll. He lives with a silicone trophy girlfriend Smokvica and his best friend from childhood is his business manager. Despite still having his women, fame, and fortune, Dorijan is unhappy about having to resort to playing a musical style he hates in order to have all that.

It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

For the record, I watched this movie only because my whole family was watching it on Christmass Eve. After watching whole movie I got stuck with feeling that this movie could be really good movie if the crew sticked to the basic story in the script. This story was when fallen rock singer, who sold his soul to the devil and made huge success in folk music, gets his body switched with young boy who is struggling with his band to make it on rock scene. The idea was good, getting back to the roots for the folk star and showing young boy the other real side of the fame and glory. This could made a good movie, not a classic as the first part of "trilogy" but decent, enjoyable movie, but NO everything in Serbia has to fall to the trends, starting with film-making. The movie is packed with commercials for this and that, high school is made to look like American, bunch of crap was shoved in movie (like Chinese trade centers, DJ Krmak etc). Some actors gave good performance, others succeeded only to irritate and lure the curses from audience. I wouldn't recommend this movie to anyone except those who enjoy typical brainless "entratainment" filled with latest hypes and popular actors. I'm left with painful feeling that this could be good movie and hoping that the original would combust and all copies will be destroyed.

I have not seen the first one yet, but I watched the second and I enjoyed that. I took the liberty of watching this. Well, where are the laughs? I understand that people may not have liked the second because it is a sequel. Maybe it will happen to me when I see We are not angels 1.Anyway, this one is more to do with music, but the film is quite boring and without much humour at all really. I think Srdjan Dragojevic is a great writer, but he disappointed me with this. It shows the typical story of the angel and the devil but they are not interesting because they ARE NOT FUNNY. That goes for the rest of the characters. This film better hope I do not give it a one after watching the first.The only reason I do not give it a one though, is because of the beautiful visuals this film has with lighting and cinematography. However, that is not enough to like this garbage. If it had some funny moments I could at least respect it, but sadly no. I cannot stop you from watching this, but remember: YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

First installment of "Mi nismo andjeli" is one of my all time favourite films. I've been raving about it from the first day I saw it in 1993 to this day! Second installment was still entertaining and original, even if quite different from the first. This, the third film, left me disappointed.I am not a film critic and I am sure this film will appeal to many. Some of the jokes are quite entertaining and the story stands on its own. But I am nostalgic for the originality that the first film had which wasn't repeated in the third. I don't know if Srdjan was the one directing it whether it would have been any different. I recommend seeing all three films and coming to your own conclusions.

I saw first two parts, and second one was big disappointment (it looked like wanna be Hollywood teen comedy) first one is legendary. Now i went to the cinema, with my girlfriend and popcorn's, expecting nothing. But after first ten minutes I realized that R'N'R strikes back really strikes back. The film was something completely different. Darker, more mature comedy with really nice photography and production design. Something not common for this part of the world. Really phenomenal. The other great thing is music. Very nice movie themes, that could be real hits.And also very well incorporated in the movie, makes you urge for more. Directors style is modern. Looks kinda commercial/music video, addict to me. Which is great, he moved one step forward from all other directors in this parts. I can't wait to see his next movie.Finally somebody that pays attention at all aspects ( actors,photography,music,story... ) in his work. Great actors, great roles. Great movie. Bravo for those who were brave to produce it.
