Major Grom: The Game

I am a devout admirer of the Grom universe, and hearing that the third film was finally coming out was such a pleasant surprise. Tikhon's portrayal of Grom is very dear to me; it is always wonderful.

In this film, the original story continues, becoming darker and more somber while also providing long-awaited answers.

At nearly three hours long, I'm glad I had the chance to watch it in the cinema for the first time. It made for a great cinematic experience. Since then, I've watched it twice more via streaming services.

Call me biased, but there's something truly special about this franchise-it has a soul, at least to me. The depth and authenticity it carries make it stand out in a way that resonates deeply.

The movie is great. I've watched it three times and will go a fourth time. I am glad that Russian cinema is only gaining momentum and delights us with such good films as "Major Thunder. The Game." I don't understand people who give bad ratings to such a film masterpiece. The cast, acting, plot, special effects are all top notch. Bubble produces the best comics and movies. Such a wonderful film should be seen by more people around the world. Progress compared to "Plague Doctor" is felt immediately. The cinematic universe has truly reached a new level. I look forward to the continuation of films and comics. Love Bubble and you will be happy!

Major Grom: The Game is a Russian action flick directed by Oleg Trofim. It's another full-length movie inspired by BUBBLE Comics' Major Grom series and serves as a direct sequel to 2021's Major Grom: Plague Doctor.

A year has gone by since Major Grom took down the Plague Doctor. St. Petersburg is back on its feet, Sergey Razumovsky is in a psychiatric hospital, and Igor Grom has become the city's hero. Life is pretty sweet for Grom: he's a local celebrity, teaming up with his buddy Dima Dubin to catch bad guys during the day, and enjoying nights out at the bar with friends-or cozying up with his gorgeous girlfriend, journalist Yulia Pchelkina.

But this peaceful vibe doesn't last. Lieutenant General Maria Arkhipova (Olga Sutulova) comes in from Moscow with plans to shake up the Saint Petersburg police, aiming to swap out the staff for high-tech security drones, thanks to international arms dealer August van der Holt (Matvey Lykov). To top it off, a mysterious new terrorist known as The Ghost shows up in the city, turning everything upside down!

The cinematography is solid, and the fight scenes are well choreographed, but the film drags on a bit. At times, the pacing falters, making it feel like we're starting over. Honestly, one watch was more than enough!

I liked the movie. Interesting plot with lots of action and an ambiguous villain. Visual effects are on the same level, and in some moments even better. This movie made me cry somewhere, and somewhere laugh. The acting is also great, and you can believe all the emotions of the characters. Because of what sometimes you don't understand at all who you sympathize with more. But the beginning of the movie is not for everyone, because there are too many scenes with drunks, which made me feel awkward.

Overall, this is a worthy continuation of the Igor Grom arc. It has its pros and cons. The first is much more in my opinion, so I recommend watching it.

It's a very good movie, but I think it could have been better. The director did a great job, he put in a lot of everything, and drama, and comedy, and the raft twist of spider-Man, and it looks cool. Unfortunately, if you want to understand this movie, you'd better watch the first part of Major Thunder, otherwise there will be a lot of holes. The cast is great, fan-friendly and good at movies, there are no questions for them. There are still some questions about the plot, because after all, this is a comic book movie, and here they are very different, which is for me, as a comic book fan, upsets me very much. At least, we get hidden gays (Razumovsky and Volkov)
