Pretty Good

i must have seen a different film!!

Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

I lived in Siberia between 1963 and 1973 and I can testify that the film is as true to the reality of life there as it gets.

I have registered to make a review for this film.I shocked when I see 900 vote for such a film.I think Russia is a gold mine for the cinema because after isolation from the world there thousand of lost story and unknown environments such Sybria.The cinema needs too to comments of Russian people.Because there was black out and cinema shaped with out them.This film has a lost story one of these people.The film is breath taking and have too powerful story and environment.Actors camera director are perfect.All film is about hope and teaching you worth of the hope.He is taking from you with such powerful actors and environment.You are cold and lost with in Syberia.Feeling hopeless people emotions.And director has a gift for you end of the film. This film a lost diamond and nobody is knowing.Everybody must see this lost masterpiece!

it is a film for who the review is haunting of wind. because it is out of words. picture of an universe, cruel, touching, pure state of facts, it is a form of pray. this is cause for who, for me, the scene of paper icon is the best. a world in search of sense. desire / need/ search of God. in the heart of taiga. and His presence. in presence of young prostitute. in the young soldier. in the letter to father. in the grandfather as keeper of measure. a Russian film like a conquest. as lines of a battle.it is not an exception, many movies from East are exercises for self definition. in this case, like in Ostrov or Tsar, in Angel Tunnel , the problem, the central quest is this feeling who gives sense of life. the answer - miracle. in old Dostoyevsky manner - redemption. fall of sin. honest image of circle who has you as part. bitter, cruel, sad, full of extraordinary beauty. a film. about God.

It's lovely movie,Siberia. Late autumn. In taiga.In the deserted village there lives an old man Ivan & his seven-year-old grandson Leshia. A pack of feral dogs devours everything alive in the neighborhood. One of these dogs is Leshia's best friend. Sometimes their relative uncle Yuri brings food to them. Once on his way back from Ivan's village uncle Yuri is attacked by dogs & perishes. Ivan & Leshia stay without supply. Once Leshia witnesses Ivan shooting at 'his' dog & runs away. The old Man finds him in a dry well, but he fails to get him out on his own. Ivan sets out through taiga in search of help. Now the dogs are hunting him... And the boy is waiting for his father...
