Best movie of this year hands down!

I saw this movie before reading any reviews, and I thought it was very funny. I was very surprised to see the overwhelmingly negative reviews this film received from critics.

Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

One of the funniest movies I have seen. I dont understand Russian so I watched it with sub-titles. Hilarious!!There is a manic song sequence in which she sings "I will survive" Impecably shot and choreographed.

It's not only about Russians making fun of themselves. It's also about making fun of stereotypes people have about Russians. Trust me on that )) I'm a doctor )) Vodka and a wild behavior, what else to expect? They are coming upon you ))

Russians can laugh at their own faults and imperfections and this movie is there for you to prove it! Besides that, there's a nice old school cast, new faces, and the brilliance of a young perspective film director to show their best, place them in order and create this KARAOKE-movie, something new. We all live own life according to own family treasures and culture or, sometimes, left at own devices. In this movie, you will see the "working-class" provincial Russians life that is, perhaps, on the verge with nonsense. Yes, they all looking for love and family treasures and it is indeed about love, lies, jealousy, the perplexity of life and "the vodka at the table". A story about the little provincial people who always has a bigger dream/fish to catch. This movie is hilarious.

The worst film ever! I want to stab my eyes and erase my memory... It's horrible! The film does not teach anything. Only alcoholism and debilism. Bad songs, bad dialogues. Weak storyline. And this is in the presence of such wonderful and legendary actors. It is unfortunate that I can not put the estimate lower than one
