That was an excellent one.

Lack of good storyline.

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

The best reason to see MOSCOW PARADE (Prorva) is to see Ute Lemper in action. This versatile German artist can do it all, and this film gives the best glimpse at her many talents when she was in her mid 20's. She is currently starring on Broadway in CHICAGO, after having originated the same role in London's CHICAGO version. Too bad that's not on video. Meanwhile, settle for PRORVA. The only downside is that in making her look Russian for PRORVA, they decidedly made her appear much less attractive, as if there were no beautiful long legged blonde Russians.
