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.
韩影老套路爽片。为了朴素丹看的，从《京城学校》开始一直挑战不同形象的角色，简直是百变小魔女，爽片开挂女主也不例外。希望身体快快恢复，多出来接戏吧！
一部能看，但是毫无意义，甚至多少让人生厌的恐怖片续作，这倒不是说在声音和氛围上的掌控退化了，而是第一部电影中发生的一切都没有被提及，所以甚至也不用存在所用的“洗白”，就可以John wick到底，总体上它不好也不坏，只是部尚能看的片子。这多少让人觉得可惜，因为它本可以更狠一点，而不是迫于资本拍部无聊的续集。
受制于感官缺失的恐惧氛围全然散尽，失望透顶的续作。
从《屏住呼吸》到“气喘吁吁”——破旧立新：场景大了，格局小了。
奄奄一息的续集...难看到我以为下错了片子
前半段盲僧的战斗力很让人失望，后半段变成了最后生还者1

不如前作，但是给老大爷安排了一个班的兵力，未免太欺负孤寡老人了吧！喂~还是值得一看。其中狗狗的叛变，莫名的喜感。——20210910
老骥伏枥，志在千里，烈士暮年，壮心不已。比前作少了些紧张感，最主要没有多次扣题！屏住呼吸啊！我们都知道伤害狗狗的人是没有好下场的。老大爷每次受伤我都觉得好痛啊差不多得了吧，结果他又站起来了！感动美国！
有長文影評。盲翁在自己家園充分掌握地理環境，得以單靠聽覺與歹徒鬥智鬥勇，易如反掌地鎖定歹徒位置，並靈活運用家中的不同道具擊退敵人，縱然把女孩困在「大型密室」內實屬反智做法，但前半段「大宅躲貓貓」戲碼總算能延續第一集營造的壓迫氛圍，依舊緊張得暫時停止呼吸。
走出舒适圈就不属于这部电影的立意了，虽然我第一部只给了两星
小女孩之不幸，被瞎老头捡来养，成天练习绝地生存毁童年，好不容易跟亲生爹娘相聚，结果进了毒贩子窝，她娘觊觎的小女孩的心脏，最后亲手弑父弑母。这童年阴影得多大！（2021-07-25 想看）
中规中矩的韩国动作片，唯一有表现力的场面也就反派落海也要拖着女主一起死的决心了
看看第一部就行了，起码有一些垂直的类型化表现，到了这一部反而沦为普通的犯罪片，前作的优点都没有了。狗狗做错了什么，老要充当导火索。
一间底特律的房子拍了两部戏惊悚片 最后的洗白是干嘛
3⭐半，剧情老套了点，不过bgm加分。小姐姐身手够溜。反派够奸够狠！！
与第一部的关联，仅存少量场景保留，因此呼吸更轻松，影感灾难，沦为低趣味血腥暴片。与前作不同在于所谓好人坏人道德之间的视角切换，更是烂片理由之一，救赎是自淫思维，如果存在这类救赎，那么我先去杀人再去救人又有何妨？不存在洗白一说。
退伍老兵的杀神之路，从禁室培欲到相依为命，生命的孤独无人能解。隔绝亦是保护，生身父母不过利益为重。目睹残酷，由懵懂一瞬蜕变成大人。世界的凌乱无以为继，唯有相互投射的萤火，足以度过漫漫长夜。
动人家姑娘，动人家狗
还是第一部好看些，纯靠 情节和营造人设的惊悚片
