ffs-63398's rating
This is not doubt movie that has quality (of some sort at least).
It is dynamic enough (even if lots of scenes are elongated with no reason). It has good enough CGI (even if amount of references/borrows is terrible). It has seed of a descent plot (even if it has almost nothing common with original and, for the sake of truth, originals, both film and book, are for 12 yo).
The main problem, as with almost all other modern russian movies, is, sadly, complete absence of originality. Both inner and outer.
Balding producers and elderly championnesses of morality/patriotism are desperate (and hopeless) to be on the "same wave" as next generation. It could be funny if it wasn't so profane, tasteless and mediocre. They are trying to create culture but completely do not understand neither what they are doing nor that culture changed dramatically over 50 years. The saddest thing is, they refuse to learn "new reality", even if they declare this new reality almost every day over the past few years.
As a result, this movie is for no one. Attempts to be modern are clumsy and at least five years late. Plot turns to be empty and leads nowhere. Instead of bright and inspiring future footage is filled by teen's foolish showdowns. Picture is colorful and smooth but lacks meaning.
Great example of what happens when artwork is started by free creative spirit and finished by high-rank soviet censors (yes, they still exist).

Director of this highly overpriced unpleasantness got himself honorary place in my (not long!) blacklist.
Reduce first contact, one of the greatest possible event in history of humanity, to uterine rabies. That is all this totally empty, overlongated, false pretentious, poor sci-fi parody movie contains.
Such talent must be noted. And also must be keeped from Sci-fi as far as possible. There is a very wide (and profitable!) area for this. Dear mr. Villeneuve please please please go there, to all of this jade rods, and never come back.
Elongation accompanied by total absence of meaning and understanding cannot make a good movie. Do not let "views" fool you. There is totally nothing in this movie.

This movie could be nice enough. Noting like "Social network", "Big short" etc because of too plain and stereotypical screenplay. But still - it could be enjoyable enough if not one thing. Soundtrack.
"Fok da pssi ess dums bums" or something like that. From the beginning to the end of the whole movie.
Is that how one represent "young common people" these days? I will not be surprised if there are some lawsuits from young people got offended by that representation.
I totally missed times when term "music" became so wide that it included "junky ghetto street dead ends noises". But i'll vote strongly against this if able.
