We Are Not Angels 3: Rock & Roll Strike Back (2006)
We Are Not Angels III is a Serbian film. In 1973 during a Youth Work Action, budding musician Borko Pavić (Nikola Pejaković) is disappointed to find out that the majority of his fellow young workers prefer to dance kolo to folkish harmonica sounds rather than listening to him play his acoustic guitar. Heartbroken and depressed he confides in his best friend that he read that in America the young people make the devil appear by playing the music backwards who then makes them rich and famous. He becomes the mega popular rock'n'roll superstar Dorijan. Cut to 30+ years later Dorijan is still a debauched, coke-snorting, and alcoholic superstar, except that he's now playing turbo folk instead of rock'n'roll. He lives with a silicone trophy girlfriend Smokvica and his best friend from childhood is his business manager. Despite still having his women, fame, and fortune, Dorijan is unhappy about having to resort to playing a musical style he hates in order to have all that.

It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?
Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.
This is an awesome movie and anyone who doesn't think so is either dumb or doesn't understand Serbian humor. Everyone says that the first part was the best but i think that this one is. It's a comedy about musicians and it has everything a comedy should have. You just have to understand the way Serbian people think. You can't say it's a bad movie if you didn't grow up watching and listening to this kind of stuff. Don't get me wrong . I'm not saying that you have to be Serbian in order to understand this movie. This is a movie for the whole world and i recommend it to everyone. Just don't say it's a bad movie if didn't understand it at first.
For the record, I watched this movie only because my whole family was watching it on Christmass Eve. After watching whole movie I got stuck with feeling that this movie could be really good movie if the crew sticked to the basic story in the script. This story was when fallen rock singer, who sold his soul to the devil and made huge success in folk music, gets his body switched with young boy who is struggling with his band to make it on rock scene. The idea was good, getting back to the roots for the folk star and showing young boy the other real side of the fame and glory. This could made a good movie, not a classic as the first part of "trilogy" but decent, enjoyable movie, but NO everything in Serbia has to fall to the trends, starting with film-making. The movie is packed with commercials for this and that, high school is made to look like American, bunch of crap was shoved in movie (like Chinese trade centers, DJ Krmak etc). Some actors gave good performance, others succeeded only to irritate and lure the curses from audience. I wouldn't recommend this movie to anyone except those who enjoy typical brainless "entratainment" filled with latest hypes and popular actors. I'm left with painful feeling that this could be good movie and hoping that the original would combust and all copies will be destroyed.
I have not seen the first one yet, but I watched the second and I enjoyed that. I took the liberty of watching this. Well, where are the laughs? I understand that people may not have liked the second because it is a sequel. Maybe it will happen to me when I see We are not angels 1.Anyway, this one is more to do with music, but the film is quite boring and without much humour at all really. I think Srdjan Dragojevic is a great writer, but he disappointed me with this. It shows the typical story of the angel and the devil but they are not interesting because they ARE NOT FUNNY. That goes for the rest of the characters. This film better hope I do not give it a one after watching the first.The only reason I do not give it a one though, is because of the beautiful visuals this film has with lighting and cinematography. However, that is not enough to like this garbage. If it had some funny moments I could at least respect it, but sadly no. I cannot stop you from watching this, but remember: YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.
First installment of "Mi nismo andjeli" is one of my all time favourite films. I've been raving about it from the first day I saw it in 1993 to this day! Second installment was still entertaining and original, even if quite different from the first. This, the third film, left me disappointed.I am not a film critic and I am sure this film will appeal to many. Some of the jokes are quite entertaining and the story stands on its own. But I am nostalgic for the originality that the first film had which wasn't repeated in the third. I don't know if Srdjan was the one directing it whether it would have been any different. I recommend seeing all three films and coming to your own conclusions.
