Kazantzakis Storyline

The film-biography is a tribute to the Great Awakening Writer NIKOS KAZANTZAKIS. The ecumenical writer Nikos Kazantzakis said that his life is defined by his travels and dreams. These tracks were followed by the film. The presence of the Greek spirit, which represents great ideals, is intense. Freedom, power, creation, strong friendships, dynamic spirit. All of these elements make up a heartfelt sensation that will make you feel human, feel free. “I hope nothing, I fear nothing, I am free.” Nikon Kazantzakis—irenemavr-21946

Kazantzakis Movie Reviews

Blatantly superficial

The film about the prominent author Nikos Kazantzakis is lacking the depth that the author itself had. It’s un unskillful patchwork of Nikos Kazantzakis lines from his many marvellous books with no real coherence. It’s an awkwardly made 2 hours video clip of Nikos Kazantzakis famous parts of his books with the sole intention to make a part of the Greeks (apparently those who are not familiar with his work but only with his famous book characters eg Zorbas)feel proud about the great compatriot. The level of acting is deplorable in every sense. The film is annoyingly bad.

Disaster!

I mean no disrespect to anybody, because i do appreciate some of the actors playing in this film, but this movie is as bad as it gets. No real character development, no realistic dialogues, it all looks too pretentious. The direction is awful as well. i constantly felt like those who made that movie, haven’t even read the majority of kazantzakis work! So, i encourage everybody to read kazantzakis books, read all of them, read ZORMPAS, read it again and again! But you gain nothing by watching this movie..

Unfortunate but then again..

After having read most of Kazantzaki’s books i decided to watch the movie. Even though, i think, they tried their best, it is really hard to portray the depth of the author’s book in a 2 hour movie. Therefore it looked really shallow and some of the times it made me cringe. I hope someone could give it a go once more.
