Wonderful character development!

Expected more

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

Sorry for bad English. I saw that movie once, 10 year ago. "Armavir" - invented ship. It was similar story with real Russian ship "Admiral Nakhimov" - it sank 31 august 1986 near Novorossiysk (Black Sea). 423 people are dead. This movie not only about shipwreck, but about love father to daughter. About hope and despair, ...memory and oblivion, ...revenge and remorse. One shot of tragedy and father to rush via all Russia, to find and save child, adult child, but he will always protect her. One month after tragedy, and nobody want know about that. It is not Xmas story, it is real life. It is distressing sight, but it's necessary to begin to think. This story have not time and place, it is story about us.
