Ed Gonzalez Slant Magazine Mar 28, 2007
2.5/4
Told as a carefree series of serio-comic encounters, recalling the spirit of Catch-22, and as such it's no surprise that that film flirts with inconsequentiality. Go to Full Review

3/4
The script is fresh and accessible -- even for folks who don't know Croatia from Cambodia -- and it is put over by solid acting and direction. Go to Full Review
Andrew O'Hehir Salon.com Mar 7, 2007
Rajko Grlic's film is a sometimes wistful, sometimes farcical comedy, in the honorable Eastern European tradition, set along the Yugoslav-Albanian border in the halcyon days of 1987. Go to Full Review

Border Post contains some genuinely amusing moments and feeling for humanity. Only one element is lacking, any hint as to why the region would be engulfed in fratricidal war within a few years' time. Go to Full Review

Apr 26, 2013 Starts off not so interesting; but turns way much better off near the end. See more Mar 30, 2011 very entertaining up to the end, where it takes a U turn. very good film. See more Jul 9, 2010 great movie,great direction,great cast See more Apr 13, 2010 This movie evokes nostalgic feelings for the time of Yugoslavia, even to audiences who were born after the break up and never witnessed life in the joint country. Through great comedy, the movie paints a realistic picture of the multinational character of socialist Yugoslavia, but also gives a remarkable metaphor about the events that lead to the devastating war and separation. The acting is also remarkable, since each character is a highly trustworthy depiction of it's nationality. Also, supreme photography! See more Jul 19, 2009 Jedan od solidnijih domacih filmova u poslednjih 5-6 godina, naizgled humoristican, a u sustini krajnje tragican, mada bez nekog velikog povoda. Sergej Trifunovic u ulozi kakva njemu lezi, sjajni Diklic u mini-roli, dosta autenticnih snimaka brainwashinga sa nacionalne tv, par replika za pamcenje, ali sve bez nekog dubljeg smisla, bez zasto i bez kako See more Jan 19, 2009 very well made film. iTS not so local and gets straight to the point.
