Featured review
I'll be honest, I was really excited to see this, I don't have much experience with Russian Cinema unfortunately, but I'd this was anything to go by, then I am keen to see more.
A very good start, it's creepy, it's imaginative, I can truly believe that this is set in The Cold War USSR in the 1980's.
Well acted, well produced, I'm no film expert, but in terms of the visuals, it feels more American cinema than European cinema to me, it looks great.
I just love how Russian it is, from the name, to the Russian dolls that pop up.
It's chilling, it looks great, it exceeded my expectations, I perhaps didn't enjoy the ending quite to much, but that's a minor quibble, all in all, I thoroughly enjoyed it. 8/10.
