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
I went ... to God for the freedom to fight and fight and fell like a hot fire smoke was gone.
I once touched the beautiful so out of my mind this girl all the time does not fly out, but remained in the first half of the youth and adulthood (21-35).
Liberty wants everyone to understand that it is different for children and adults. To cut to friveyam should take place in this life, and if such opportunities at the moment, then at least begrudgingly pozaglyadyvat through the wall of obstacles to this freedom not want me one.
 Actually, I noticed that our local people watch less movies and later to ripen them, all the more the channel is not on the European mainland and in American movies. Russian same movies, especially the older ones often with neuropathic endings in contrast to household plot. And this is far from gone, apparently shot the father of "Brother", like that film shows uncut dognivaniya period and the collapse of the USSR State colossus.
All pretty vital shown is that if you fall in love himself is not necessarily mutually and do not always have a couple of matches, such a stretch misalliance happened with Robert-Bob. Of course the characters are not named in nashenskie Bob and Nat, some awkwardness. In love with a biker and a stern voice-over narration sensibly conducted without thinking of the appropriate words, they came from the heart. Entertained devils, weaving about the future, about zagadyvaya house in the suburbs. A girl, it was not necessary, she ssuchilas. Maybe her life so obtochila, but she went hitchhiking, no money with a strange desire to move to another part of the world.
The guy from Saratov, was looking for her in the basement, where they slept, but peering into the room he saw the girl-child defenseless and naked, for me it is not clear what was meant. As a result, Bob acted not reasonable zagrobiv yourself, your motsel and as in the ballad of the ancient Russian warrior shadow wandered through the snow near a spreading bush as a true Solitario myeon, terse in life, not to humiliate the fear of death, he made a fire and waited. No time to see, love came to him, softened guy will blunt caution fatal fascination turned an ordinary Russian girl. The film very much, reminds of past stage with just such a stone cold (deadpan) man, but a happy and without tragedy.

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.

These people survived the Second World War and immediately fell in the "death camp", the Kolyma. At least two million people were in captivity in Germany. This was seen as a betrayal of the motherland, Article 58. Death camps - an innovation NKVD operated flawlessly. It was aimed at the destruction of the "enemies of the people".

No, they did not kill, people simply do not stand up, zvereli and destroy each other, someone died from disease, cold and hunger. In the film, several of rehabilitated prisoners talk about their cruel fate, that very few people know that was held in strict secrecy for years. This nuance "convict" life, wild and fierce.

MOVIE 1 - "The Story of a trust" Dilapidated wooden buildings, empty eye sockets of windows, bunks in the barracks, the stars in the towers, a rickety fence, a wooden bridge - either to freedom, whether in the end - is all that remains of one of the countless Stalin camps. "Stone promised to keep secret" - now it protects only the countless bodies of victims of the regime, were buried here. It all started in the 30s ..

MOVIE 2 - "Face to Face" civilian workers, former prisoners and the children born in the camps continue to show. The end of the 30's - early 40's. for prisoners abounded important events. First expected changes due to the removal of Yezhov and Beria's appointment. But instead of change went indiscriminate shootings ...

MOVIE 3 - "The war after the war" from the mountain, which has a cracked old "cup" high-voltage transmission lines, are the ruins of the camp. Chronicle - soldiers of the Great Patriotic meet with victory and with flowers. In parallel with these trains were other trains that are not met by flowers. Those who traveled in them - military prisoners, immigrants - from German captivity were sent to the Soviet prisoners in the camp. They wanted to return home, but instead received a tribunal and jail. Began again denunciations, to tighten, and the handcuffs were put numbers that are now replaced with the names .... Among prisoners created underground organizations, people went into hiding. They are shot, dead bodies lay unburied for weeks fugitives to frighten, but they still ran - drove the excitement of freedom and human dignity. Death was a common thing ... This film authors have devoted innocently murdered, our brothers and sisters, found peace in Kolyma anonymously on cold ground.

Review



Very difficult to analyze and evaluate this film without knowing the identity of Sergey Kuriokhin, which is kind of spiritual inspiration of this picture. Soviet and Russian avant-garde musician, jazz musician, composer, actor, had a unique view of life to religion. Here is just a brief that can be said about this multi-faceted personality. It is no accident that, even in the title of the movie for us mere spectators hidden mystery "Loch - Lord of water." The name is clearly twofold - on the one hand slang 90s with another premise to Japanese culture. The contrast is even more expressed in the film, where the situation is "dashing 90" compared with the reading of a Japanese poem. Without going into all the mythology of the film, the story is quite simple: engineer Gorelikov another open-house computer facilities. Suddenly, this quiet place is demolished by a gang of racketeers. Dies other bones. And then the eternal "hick" Gorelikov engages in battle with bandits. Colorful image of the character and the situation in which he finds himself, and the film's original slogan, which are full of campaign flyers in the movie "The last hope of the country" in the future will result in our kinematogrofa in the film "Brother" and "Brother 2", which will all be very clear and clear. In the meantime, we will have to solve this puzzle, but you can not fully understand it without understanding the people who created it without the knowledge of their past work without mythology on which they relied. Without this, we can say that it is but an interesting movie - the charismatic main character - with the theme of revenge for the sake of justice, which will soon become one of the most beloved in Russia and in the world cinema.

In short, the landmark films of the early 90's.


Opinion 

Very moody movie. 
The movie has a number of shortcomings, in terms of dynamics and some slurred in the script. The impression that the filmmakers intend to do all methods of struggle "sucker" Gorelikova bandits some implausible, but rather even comical, to immediately withdraw all claims to the status of the domestic thriller. No doubt the whole story - it's an allegory for some more profound ideas, some of which are illustrated with quotations from the epic Shii. 
Everything else there is to illustrate the offset Kuryokhin as an actor and as a matter of the composer. In fact, as a "needle" with Tsoi valuable by Tsoi, and this film is valuable presence in it Kuryokhin.
