"(Not) an Ideal man" is one of the tez pictures that seem to seem quite ordinary and predictable to themselves, but the further you look, the more you delve into the essence, you worry about the characters and can't wait, well, what will happen in the finale. For me, this film is primarily a strong, beautiful and vivid story of an unusual love between a girl and a robot guy.
The plot plunges the viewer into the near future. Robots are becoming a part of everyday life and their appearance is no different from ordinary people. A young girl Sveta gets a job at a company selling such robots after a hard breakup with her boyfriend. A technical malfunction is detected in one of the products, and the engineers want to return it to the manufacturer, but Sveta, having already managed to fall in love with this robot, buys it for herself. The robot is sensitive and attentive, takes care of her and looks after her beautifully. How will this unusual romantic story end?
The main character of this novel is Egor Creed. That's where the creators of the film did not lose with the choice of the main character. Creed is perfect for the role of the ideal man. At the peak of popularity, outwardly very good-looking, this musician will gather a lot of fans and female fans with just one name. He plays quite well, with charisma, his character is textured and very attractive. In tender scenes, it looks harmonious and really, just the perfect man. Yulia Alexandrova made a pair for him. I like this sweet and pleasant actress. He plays very sincerely and emotionally. Any girl will understand her actions and motives, in general, her role turned out to be interesting and curious.
The film can be attributed to the genre of modern witty comedy, with a share of melodrama, seasoned with fantastic elements. The picture touches on topical issues of relations between the sexes, sometimes joking a little about the "dream of all women".
The script is original, there is no similar picture in the Russian cinema. The plot is full of unpredictable events and "subtle" light humor. I really didn't have enough drama towards the end, I just wanted to cry, but the emotions were strong. The Alexandrov-Creed couple look brilliant together, their emotions are beating over the edge, there are some very beautiful shots that take your breath away. The musical range is selected harmoniously, the melodies are pleasant and add romance. The picture is high-quality and stylish.
Summing up, I note that I liked the film in many ways. Everything in it is harmonious, starting from the original idea and ending with its full implementation on the screen. The picture is cool for dating or viewing with friends. If you are a romantic nature, then you will like the movie even more. And I want to congratulate Egor Creed on his debut. I suspect that this role will not be the last for him.
