| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Apr 14, 2002

It's hard to believe this is writer-director Danis Tanovic's first feature fiction film.

Full Review | Original Score: A | Feb 15, 2002

The acting's so strong and the dialogue so realistic, that it feels authentic.

Full Review | Feb 7, 2002

A strange and disturbing film, but it is not without a stirringly humanist compassion even at its most outlandish and outrageous.

| Jan 9, 2002

A well-mounted... seriocomedy with passing punchlines. And for about half the movie, it's compelling stuff.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Dec 21, 2001

It's not a pretty picture, but it is a funny one, if you agree with Tanovic that all human behavior tends toward folly, cowardice, self-deception, corruption and hopelessness.

Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/5 | Dec 21, 2001

Tanovic, himself a war veteran, expertly twists us within the dilemma while avoiding easy answers.

One of the most remarkable films of the year.

| Original Score: 4/4 | Dec 21, 2001

A skillfully wrought, if somewhat predictable, farce involving belligerent opponents, blundering international peacekeepers and excitable journalists.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | Dec 21, 2001

A bleakly funny parable that could be titled Between Enemy Lines.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Dec 21, 2001

From beginning to end, it bristles with ironies in classic Eastern European absurdist style.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | Dec 21, 2001

Tanovic's film is coil-sprung to explode on the unsuspecting.

Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/4 | Dec 20, 2001

An explosively suspenseful, deeply moving dark comedy and an astonishingly assured fiction debut from Tanovic.

Full Review | Original Score: 4/4 | Dec 20, 2001

Part of what makes No Man's Land so effective is a take-no-prisoners sense of humor that is characteristically Balkan.

| Original Score: 5/5 | Dec 14, 2001

[A] stunning farce...

Full Review | Dec 10, 2001

Equally deft at portraying the hateful madness of war and the infantile, venal feeble-mindedness of military bureaucracy.

| Dec 9, 2001

The movie's insights let the movie get away with its wartime irreverence.

Full Review | Dec 7, 2001

Scathingly tense, blackly funny and ultimately indelible.
