Hitler Kaput!
Tuesday, September 16th, 2008 | Russian movies | Tags: 2008
Hitler Kaput! is a comedy, that seems like made in Zucker Brothers style. The movie is starring Anna Semenovich, ex-Blestyaschie, big titted pop queen. The moral side of such movie, telling in the funky way the story of the most bloodiest war in the history, that took 27 millions lives of Russians, mostly civilians, is heavily disputed in Russian internet.

Trailer of Nepobedimyj (Invincible, Man of the East)
Saturday, September 13th, 2008 | Russian movies | Tags: 2008
What i can guess from the trailer of Nepobedimyj (translation: Invincible) or Man of the East (title for international distribution) is that this movie is a kind of Bourne / James Bond movie. Ok, here is the synopsis:
Yegor Kremnyov is a Russian special intelligence agent. During his last mission, which was supposed to be simple and safe, all of his accomplices were killed. But the guy that they were to have captured turned out to be the secretary of the fugitive oligarch Sorkin - Mikhail Shering, who has been on the wanted list for a long time. According to rumors, Shering has secret papers that are of interest not only to Russian intelligence, but also to the powerful West crime syndicate. Now Kremnyov is faced with the difficult task of bringing Shering home. He is surrounded by treachery, conspiracy, ambushes and traps, but nevertheless Yegor plans to deliver Shering on his own. But Kremnyov’s main trap is the very cargo he is to deliver - Shering. It is not so easy for Kremnyov to avoid the influence of his fellow traveler. This deathly dangerous journey will change them both - both the fugitive Shering and the invincible Kremnyov.

Saturday, August 30th, 2008 | Russian movies | Tags: 2008
The new movie of Alexandr Melnik starring Konstantin Lavronenko (“The Return”) and Tommy Lister (president from the “Fifth Element”), is a kind of slasher, survival action and anti-utopia in one package. That’s how me and Google translated the synopsis:
Near future. The death penalty was abolished worldwide, prisons are overcrowded. More and more funds needed for the maintenance of convicts to life imprisonment. International organizations decide to do an experiment. Russia provides an uninhabited island in the north, where a small settlement is developed. The first prisoners from Russia come to island. They must start a new life and arrange their own society. However, the settlers begin to live by the law: “last is dead”.
