Underwhelming, to put mildly

Rating: 2/10 (27 January 2020)

It would be difficult to imagine a worse rendition of one of the defining moments of the 20th century. This movie is a real dog: the plot is clumsy and at times incomprehensible, the situations are mostly implausible, the cast act, talk and behave like English people, not like Soviet citizens of that era. The dialogs are atrocious and the continuous, gratuitous use of gutter language becomes an irritant. One can only hope that a talented director will shoot a remake in the not-too-distant future. This movie is a total disappointment.
