What a waste of my time!!!

That was an excellent one.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Before watching this movie, I had never seen a movie made by Kazakhstani filmmakers before. After watching it, I have no desire to see another effort, at least any time in the near future. This movie goes wrong in just about every area you can think of. The only positive things I can about it is that it's decently shot, has (mostly) decent production values for what clearly wasn't a mega budget, and it has a one in a lifetime cast (though most of these well known actors are wasted in very small roles.) However, the movie is for the most part such a mess, it's hard to get any enjoyment out of those positive features. The story is extremely confusing, as if something went terribly wrong when it was translated into English. None of the characters are particularly sympathetic or interesting, with the only interest being how badly a lot of them are dubbed into English. Also, the movie doesn't know what it wants to be. Sometimes it's an action flick, other times it's a suspense thriller, and other times it plays like a very black comedy. With no constant tone, it's hard to keep your mind focused on what's happening, so much so that you'll start to forget the few coherent story details minutes after they unfold.... and you'll forget the entire movie minutes after the end credits start to unfold. I usually love B movies, but this particular one is really bad, even for my low standards.

Russian crime boss Mussa (Armand Assante) and Mr. Lo of Hong Kong make a $30 million dollar diamond deal that gets raided by Aliya, former Casino worker and trained assassin. Ruslan, a former lover and childhood friend of Aliya almost gets killed. As they make their escape, everyone is after them. "Nothing is what it seems" we are told by Aliya who does part of the narration. The film takes place mostly in non-scenic southern Siberia.The film opens with a lousy teaser and takes most of the film to get back to it. It starts out as a decent grindhouse with appropriate soundtrack, then is ruined by a lengthy Asian style love story. It has some good shoot outs but also a ridiculous car chase scene with 50's style effects for the car ride against the gang that couldn't shoot straight. The last five minutes attempts to make amends for a bad film by creating some idea of being twisty and clever. Peter O'Toole had a very small role near the end which he didn't do well.Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.

This is the worst film I have ever seen - even worse than Freddy Got Fingered.!! How did they get Peter O'Toole in this as He died in 2013 ? The film has 2016 in the credits ( It is on Netflix )and 2017 on here (Imdb)I cant see anything to suggest that the film took 3 years or more to make. It looks like a 3 to 4 weeks job !!

This is one of those low budget movies some of the talking is dubbed, the acting is really bad the CGI computer special effects are bad, there are a few movie errors, i only gave it 4/10 and I think that's being kind had more money been spent on it with some good actors it would have been a good movie
