I wanted to watch the "Chikatilo", because the real story of the famous maniac made a lot of noise in the Soviet and post-Soviet eras. The real Andrey Chikatilo killed more than 50 people and was getting away with justice for more than 10 years...

Now all the details and facts of the investigation of that case are in our hands thanks to the director Sarik Andreasyan, who, in my opinion, shot his most interesting project in his entire career. And despite the fact that Andreasyan's filmography hasn't had dramatic crime thrillers before, he did his job perfectly.

The plot is conventionally divided into two parts. In the first one, there's an investigation by Colonel Kesaev and Captain Vitvitsky. In another one, we are introduced to Chikatilo himself. This guy looks modest and quiet, but it's just a superficial judgment. In fact, he is a real beast who must be judged with the utmost rigor.

This story is gripping from the very first episode. There is a well-developed plot, beautiful, authentic shooting, as well as strong acting. So, if possible, be sure to watch Chikatilo. You need to know the psychology of a maniac.

As for me, the most important reference point for watching films is the cast. If I see interesting actors who select roles wisely and don't star in anything, it means that the novelties with their participation are mandatory to see. And since Benedict Cumberbatch starred in "Spy Games", such a movie can't be missed.

The storyline takes us back to the early 60s. The businessman Greville Wynne becomes a spy in the service of Her Majesty. While in Moscow, Neville gets instructions from a Russian colonel who has decided to go over to England's side, and who would have thought that very soon the stakes in the espionage game would become extremely high. The lives of millions of innocent people around the planet will depend on them.

Benedict Cumberbatch's performance is as good as ever. Once again I am convinced that he is one of the best actors of his generation and I can't remember a single bad film with his participation. And as for "The Courier", Cumberbatch drastically differs from Sherlock or Doctor Strange. He doesn't play a superhuman, capable of anything, but at the same time he bestows us strong emotions and we really worry about his hero.

In general, the film's worth seeing to understand its full dramatic and historical depth. The shot is interesting, there are no unnecessary moments, everything is in essence. These are the kind of films you need to watch and discuss!
