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



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.
