Sounds like the movie is becoming more loosely based on Karadzic by the minute.

They might as well have just based it on a fictional character. Still that might not sell as well as a real living, breathing, indicted war criminal...

I think the only thing the Hollywood Karadzic has in common with the real Karadzic is that they are both war criminals from the Bosnian war.
That seems to be where the similarities end.

And it doesnt exactly inspire confidence when the guy said that a movie could have been made about locating Bin Laden either.

I can hear Hollywood executives murmuring their approval on such a movie already.

With any luck this move wont be as bad as I fear it will. If I set my standards low then I hope not to be disapointed. In the final analysis whether the movie is good or not will have much more to do with character development - are they realistic characters, rather than the K word.

My hopes for this movie are diminishing rapidly.

Well what do you expect of a movie that forced the closing for 10 days of every cevapi place in Stari Grad? I really am getting annoyed with Westerners who think they are Buddhists. It usually isn't so!
