The movie screenplay is written based on the Radu Tudoran book The prodigal son (fiul risipitor - in Romanian). The book is a beautiful love story. The love of Eva for Tudor, an unriliable guy, who comes and lives as he likes. Eva is a strong woman who can't control her unhealthy love, he is her weakness, her impossible love, her dream and her nightmare. She takes him back every time and in the end of the book she is loosing her mind when he dies in the bombing incident and she looks for him everywhere keep on saying at every corner "maybe he is here". The movie has such a hollywodian approach, "he is a spy and that way he disappear / reappear with no explanation, everybody goes to America and presumably live happy ever after. No. The guy is just a pric and she can't control her addiction. Although I consider is difficult to translate into a movie a book like this, the ending chose for the movie only made it worst. The book is beautiful, I read it twice, once when I was in my 20s and the second time in my 30s, and I would like to read it again because I discovered different things at different age. Unfortunately the book was not translated in English.

I have to say that the beautiful music is written by Mihai Nenita. He is the biggest violinist and the composer of the main themes of the movie. I had to wait for the end of the movie to search for the one who's really play the violin and to find later that the music is composed by him: Mihai Nenita. He was born in Chisinev,R.P.Moldova, and he studied violin since he was 4 years old. He studied violin in Moldova and in Germany. He is born in 1977, and all his family studied music. He is very talented and I fell so sorry that no one mentioned his name. The. Beautiful theme, Tudor's theme is made by him. I wish him all the best and hope that he is going to surprise us again. Thank you, Mihai Nenita.

There are certain trash movies that have achieved cult status,even Adrian Popovici who directs this movie made one : Dracula the Impaler (2002).Unintentional fun just like : William Girdler's "The Manitou"(1978) or : Chiodo's "Killer Klowns from Outer Space" (1988)but in this case the film lacks any of this qualities,no self-spoof or any sign of visual aesthetic instead it has wooden acting,2d characters and ridiculous subplots.Could have been a "contre-emploi" comeback on the big screen for Jean Claude Van Damme ,even "Legionnaire" has a more convincing romantic approach or Steven Seagal's last "Born to raise hell".Bergin and Ironside are totally miscast ,it's also a shame that excellent romanian actors like Morgenstern or Bleont are part of this farce,i guess they got the script before signing the contract.... I felt like dreaming when i saw it,who could finance the movie knowing what disasters Adrian Popovici has directed and produced in the past,he should stick to DTV zombie flicks .I've read comments earlier about Ujica's "Autobiografia lui Nicolae Ceausescu" (2010)an excellent documentary,impartial and with artistical integrity,go and watch it instead of spending money and time on "Eva".

This movie is going into my ever growing list of completely worthless, mentally frustrating movies to watch. No offences to the main actors, as I believe a failed drama is often the fault of the director/producers/writers -- those people whose faces you may never see. The story was severely disjointed, and the acting was nauseating at times and laughable at others. I had so many moments of, Huh? Say what? and You've got to be kidding me, while watching this. Not worth the couple of hours I will never get back. If only I would learn to make this judgement at the beginning and not convince myself to sit through the whole thing, hoping desperately that the miserable story and acting at some obscure and never attainable point will be redeemed.
