Little Ukraine

If you do the movie about Ukrainians you could hire at least native Ukrainian actors for trustworthiness. Instead we see actors mainly from Balcans and Russia. Acting isn't good.

Could be a really good movie if depicted real Ukrainian immigrants and the soul of the Ukrainian people.

Should be called little Soviet better.

Little Ukraine was a recommendation from a friend who loves gangster flicks. Having no expectations and not knowing who the actors were, I watched and was surprised. Turns out, it's a well made, well acted tale of the Russian/Ukrainian mob in NYC. The film could be a first in depicting mob violence perpetuated by non Italian/Sicilians How come this hasn't ben done before? Cast is made up of American and Russian actors, and there are subtitles when Russians speak to Russians, making the film more realistic and authentic.

I love this movie. It is totally entertaining. I have been spent a quality time with this movie. This movie contains a lots of heart breaking and pathetic scene. This '' Little Ukraine'' movie is about a Jewish immigrant family as they navigate their new found lives in America. The immigrant story is relevant, because we can see this type of straggle in many other stories.

In comparison to most blockbuster action films, the cast of ' Little Ukraine ' does not feature any exceptionally well-known actors - however, I was surprised by its quality. OK if I put the simple story aside then this is a really good flick.

Stumbled on this gem and decided to give it a watch. Pleasantly surprised! A film that was actually made by artists and story-tellers - for a change. A passion project for sure, give it the time it deserves and get ready for a story you've never heard that will thrill you and haunt you and the same time.

A family escapes the Soviet Union only to find things aren't any easier for them in 1980s New York City. It's an interesting take on the immigrant crime family trope. We've seen the setup before, but Little Ukraine takes us on a path with characters who put themselves in increasingly hot water by making the choice to do the "right thing". It's a wildly pessimistic and nihilistic pov. There is also a healthy bit of skepticism that the story points toward it's main characters and their self professed virtues. In the end there are no heroes. This movie has a pleasant surprise. Good character development. Highly recommended.
