Black marketeers Marko and Blacky manufacture and sell weapons to the Communist resistance in WWII Belgrade, living the good life along the way.

After a lengthy stay in a below-ground shelter, the couple reemerges during the Yugoslav Civil War of the 1990s as Marko sees the opportunity to exploit the situation.

Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Delirious in its excess, but never less than ferociously intelligent and operatically emotional, Underground represents one of those rare, exhilarating moments when an outsize artistic vision is fueled by an apparently unlimited budget. Not to be missed.
– Dave Kehr,
New York Daily News,
23 Sep 2014
fresh:
A triumph of mise en scene mated to a comic vision that keeps topping its own hyperbole.
– Jonathan Rosenbaum,
Chicago Reader,
23 Sep 2014
fresh:
A rich, vibrant, visually spectacular survey of the changes the place has gone through during the past 50 years.
– John Hartl,

fresh:
Kusturica takes us from wacky farce to harrowing grief to lyrical fantasy to bloody horror. To ignore any side of Underground is to do it injustice.
– Michael Wilmington,
Chicago Tribune,

rotten:
Underground is a bizarre, often repellent anti-war parable that takes forever to state the obvious but hits some scattered high notes on the way.
