Review

Great! Says Roger Ibert: "Two thumbs up!" 
Of all the film is based on the scenario A. Yining, this film, I think his best work. Although to me, of course, disagree adorers "Once 20 years" or "Offered for Singles."
However, all very cheerfully, funny and touching, sometimes to tears. At the junction of the two eras, probably already on the third attempt (after the "Operation Cooperation" and "Deribasovskaya") Yining, finally came up with a miracle that the history of how people had to shift to the new circumstances of the time and go after all the troubles have not lost their own dignity . 
In general, if you see where (and this is very difficult), be sure to see and admire!

Review

The film - a set of scenes and episodes that make fun of all the Soviet regime since revolutionary times. When you watch it, it seems that the actors, many of them at the same time, and the directors and scriptwriters like get the go-ahead, waiting, well, when will you can ...
... And waited, "Let the guys, you can burn!"
Guys and lit!
In episodic scenes starring pretty famous actors and actresses such as Larissa Guzeeva, Leonid Yarmolnik and beloved Simon Faraday.
We do not forget that the film is made in the era of the 90's, where the film industry was given a place ... one of the latter, which does not pay any practically attention to the financial side, then shot it pretty well, and the acting is just great, because working in the interest of .
The movie is cool, you should definitely see.

Review



How is it "playing on the emotions was not into"? Only one moment where the household has finally gathered at a modest table, look at the birthday boy, and now call and call - and in the next frame the main character almost with tears in eyes in which time starts heartbreaking "White Rose" for bandaged Khmyrov ... is not that thin and bitter irony? Or when him gonyutsya eventually cornered, and hang snatch money and little man, dirty, are left with nothing, desperately throwing them in a trace remains - how can you ignore? That's how hard it sometimes lacked bread, but when broken destiny.

Film of those that now make up the image of the 90's, and indeed the height adjustment. One of those "clouds of heaven", "me ', etc. A good film, simple, but like any fairy tale, not without meaning. And look at today's social dramas, melodramas Shoot ... nothing, everything was familiar and gray. Not to what is not the case.

King and Queen of marmalade state conceived to marry the prince, for this contest started princesses turned into a fun, rock-and-roll, full of jokes and humor festival, which ended in victory for the love of two young hearts pure.

Review


And you know, there's a very cool Fairytale "Rock-n-Roll for the princesses."

The point is. When the king and queen decide that their son and heir was time to marry, blows a magic horn, and convene the princesses from all the kingdoms of the neighborhood to the tournament for the title of skilled workers, in which the top prize - a wedding with Prince Filofeem

Prince in this case - hairy, skinny and long-eared, but very enlightened young bonehead, and latter-day hippie vegetarian their liking shall communicate with papa mama before fainting. And papa to mama for a minute so that the main producers of marmalade in the area. I mean, not poor kingdom, there is a reason to get married.

Tournament impossible to ignore: According to an old legend, that the Princess, I'm late to the tournament or not would become lame, hunchbacked and oblique. Unenviable prospect, and that's going girl-beauties from all the neighboring kingdoms. Not, do not, it is still going. Especially because the tournament as assistants for princesses come and all the neighboring princes. So, even if the Grand Prix (in some cases very questionable) is not cut off, would still be a good judge.

Princess varied. Here and languid eastern sad sack on the cushions and under the canopy, and the Russian beauty with a skew to the waist, naughty and mischievous ingénue with two younger twin brothers and infantile and romantic princess tulle with a teddy bear and nurse; robber Ormandiora brilliant and mysterious and elegant princess who grew up behind the scenes ...

Someone Prince and nafig surrendered is the case (and gentlemen!) Interesting, but just not accustomed to do something is not perfect, but someone just dreaming of victory. And not because I too Filofei liked, but because advantageous marriage - this is a chance to realize his dream. Well, one girl prince just seemed sweet and touching.

But who ... See for yourself.
