WOW Soviet and Russian cinema is SHIT
What a shit, boring movie about an average teenage loser. Not funny in the slightest when it's supposed to be a comedy.
And yet on the Russian filmweb it has an 8/10 rating lmao
Why are they such shit-eaters? They literally consume crap and rate it highly because... it's theirs. What a joke of a nation, joke of a culture and joke of a cinema

Compare this piece of crap to Sexmission (1984) or Blind Chance (1981)

I'm not prejudiced, Cargo 200 was okay (too focused on shock value though, really pushing suspension of disbelief)
Brother was a 6/10 ripoff of Taxi Driver but I like it for documenting 90s Russia (just like Taxi Driver documents 70s NYC)

Haven't seen Come and See yet, heard some people say it's boring though but I want to see it because Ive never seen an Eastern Front movie so Im interested

War and Peace is shoddy for 1967, compared to Lawrence of Arabia. The main battle is too drawn out with bad directing, shoddy editing, stilted theatrical acting. Not even the best battle depicted in Eastern Bloc film, that title belongs to Knights of the Teutonic Order (1960)

Eisenstein is entirely overrated. Battleship Potemkin failed to impress me, Fritz Lang's Nosferatu from 1922 or Die Niebelungen from 1924 mogs it hard in every aspect
Alexander Nevsky was embarrassing, I don't know why the battle on the ice scene is lauded so much (never happened btw), all I saw was like 20 extras in the weakest costumes stumbling over pieces of cardboard pretending to be ice blocks
And outdated even for its time. Compare it to M (1931), Mystery of the Wax Museum (1933), Wizard of Oz, Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, or even Kolberg made just a few years later in 1944 (under British bombardment!)

The Korean rock singer guy's movie has something for that time. Their economy was going to shit (Reagan allowed Arab oil to drive down Russian oil's profits/demands:D) so don't expect too much from their output.

Gulaghomo is for faggots only. Read the First Circle instead
