Dimitrije Vojnov

Dimitrije is a Serbian screenwriter who retired from the job of film critic in national high-circulation newspapers back in 2006. However, even as a screenwriter, Vojnov has remained a pundit on film-related subjects in the Serbian media ever since.

As a firm believer that film critic's retirement is as fragile as the decision of a Steven Seagal movie character to leave the violent past in the CIA behind and become a gardener, Vojnov breaks out of retirement once in a while when a specific film provokes him to impose some film criticism on it.

A graduate of Faculty of Dramatic Arts in Belgrade, Vojnov has participated in many conferences and tomes about film history, theory and other related issues.

  • Karmadonna (2025)
    Review preview for Karmadonna

    It holds nothing back – it’s funny, violent, suspenseful and tense while still discussing our current cultural moment, both locally and globally, and being very incisive and dangerous about it.

  • Heads Of State (2025)
    Review preview for Heads Of State

    It’s ridiculous to have a Russian director who obviously has strong opinions about Russia and especially about the Russo-Ukrainian war make such a tone-deaf film about the Russian threat.
