Good start, but then it gets ruined

Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.

Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

The whole movie IS GOOD. I'm always watching it in Russian because when you translate it means nothing to begin with. The English version made me laugh at the pure inexactitude of translation of dialogs. The movie is action-moral drama. You do need to watch both movies to understand the whole of the story. As everything in the world the spin lays in the relationship between characters? Think about it: What would become of RE series if Alice was not fighting over one or another moral and sentimental issue? In general it is a lot alike with Resident Evil, so the whole 'bust your arse up to space' attitude is very cool. This movie is a REAL action movie, just like we loved them around end of 80's and most of the 90's good old block busters. It is afterall the real Russian modern generation culture and the movie does leak it marvelously. The dialogs are really fun (in Russian, once again, and not in the English version. So do try it out and try to learn Russian to really appreciate the dialogues.

This film is part two of a two-part movie. That's right, a two-part movie: it is not a sequel. So I would ordinarily advise that one should watch the first half before watching this. However, on this occasion I would rather say that it's better to watch neither. Ostensibly, perhaps, the movie was split in two because there was a very long story to be told. Each 'half', however is only ninety minutes long, so a 'whole' movie would be three hours. That's long, but there have been plenty of longer movies made. What's more, there really isn't a great deal of a story told, rather it relies too much on drawn out melodrama and repeated fight (gun and fist) scenes which seem to be there in profusion because the writer has run out of ideas, so there's really no justification for splitting the film in two at all. Trimmed down to about eighty to ninety minutes overall it might be worth watching, but as it is, watching it is an endurance.
