I don't get it (possible spoilers)

Rating: 6/10 (26 October 2001)

Ok, I didn't expect much, but I'm having problems with the 'greatness' of this movie. I think I'll take the liberty of not jumping on to the bandwagon of proclaiming that everyone should see this movie and so forth. Any normal person today who don't know what you "should" think about this movie, would probably find it quite boring and strange at times.
Thing is I'm not comfortable with the way the 'rebels' in this movie value lives. Reminds me of the death sentence mentality in the US and other countries today. The sailors kill several officers on the ship, but since they are bad guys that is perfectly OK. When one of the sailors however get killed, the horror. Out of nowhere a couple million of Russians come along and cry their eyeballs out for some sailor's death, a person they've never seen before! It lacks logic, and as I said I think you can go on fine without seeing this movie. Don't get me wrong I still think the movie's OK, but certainly not the greatest of all time.
