Navalny

Shocking but fascinating. Besides chronicling Navalny and his undeniable charisma, it is a real peek into how Putin operates in real time. Very scary.

It's crazy that things like this happen in the world and for that I am grateful for living in a country where we can say anything we want. Alexei Navalny is one of the bravest persons in the world and the fact that he is literally getting tortured right now for doing the right thing blows my mind.

Synopsis: Shot as the story unfolded, NAVALNY is a fly-on-the-wall documentary thriller about anti-authoritarian Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny. Recovering in Berlin after nearly being poisoned to death with the nerve agent Novichok, he makes shocking discoveries about his assassination attempt and bravely decides to return home--whatever the consequences.

This would be a very entertaining farce, if it were fictional but it isn't. It's reality and the Russian leader and the Russian media are simply that dumb.

Navalny is a very bright, very savvy person who seems willing to do whatever it takes, including dying, to see regime change in Russia.

I haven't seen a more remarkable person or movie in a very long time.

A must see.

At the time of writing, the average rating is a little over 5, from over 10,000 ratings. Yet all but one of the written reviews rates it 9 or more. Bizarre no? Or does someone really want this film to rate badly for political reasons? That alone should make you want to see it.

Navalny is a remarkably brave, perhaps slightly arrogant man and his story is frightening and quite incredible. He and his team are very media savvy and at times the production feels almost too slick. Can we believe everything we see in the film? I feel it would be naive to do so given how all sides tend to manipulate mainstream media to their own ends.

My biggest concern is that the crux of the film is one telephone conversation. The problem is, we have absolutely no way of verifying the identity of the voice on the phone or if there is any truth to the conversation. The documentary brushes over this point, focusing instead on the content of the conversation, which is understandable given the sensational revelations made in it. So should we as the audience just believe it and move on or question it as well as everything else the producers want us to questions? I don't know.

Overall, well worth watching.

Film about poisoning. On August 20, 2020, Alexei Navalny, a fighter against dictator Putin, was poisoned. During the investigation of the poisoning, there are both funny and sad moments. In the course of the film, there will be one call that will surprise you and the film will not disappoint. If possible, take a look.

Absolutely fantastic documentary, it will go down in history. If you wish to know who Vladimir Putin truly is, this documentary is definitely for you. This is not just about unprecedented corruption in Russian government, this is about dismantling the facade of a strong Russian leader whose primary goal and motivation is to serve his own country, this investigation reveals his true colors of greed.

Navalny became a prisoner of conscience, knowing that he will face difficulties maybe imprisonment, and he had the courage to return to Russia. He came and was detained at the airport and the trial was at the police station , disgrace to the constitution and court. The film made millions of people realise what kind of "patriot" in reality Putin is.

Greed, evil, who accidentally coming into power used it with catastrophic consequences for Russia.
