Very smooth

Rating: 9/10 (30 October 2016)

I like action movies, although fight scenes usually bore me a little. Most scenes in this movie however, are very smooth. The men in suits make things look more sophisticated, the magnificent choreography is almost graceful. All in all, the fight scenes are beautiful and fascinating to watch.
The use of Russian is cool, gives the whole thing a rough edge. I love the subtitles, they have put in so much work to get that just right! The accentuated words make you 'hear' what words are stressed, even if you don't speak Russian.
The music is excellent. Strong, meticulous with a rough edge. Perfect for this movie.
The story is compelling, from the first second you're drawn in. I'm very curious for the sequel, Chapter 2!
