Some reviewers are just wrong.

Rating: 10/10 (19 November 2018)

How many people will review this with "This is how the Soviet Union was"? Some even go into detail about how 'monsterous' the people of the old Russia were. Sort of clue is...Ridley Scott. And it's a Hollywood film. It's bleak because that's what we have always been told. It's really not as bleak as the film. There's another clue. 'Film'!!!
