Frighteningly Hilarious

Rating: 9/10 (20 December 2019)

Who knew that one of the darkest chapters in history could be made into a movie in such a humorous way? The producers of this movie took the time to develop all aspects of the movie greatly, but the most successful efforts definitely lay in the writing and character portrayals. Each actor achieves wonders in their roles and you cannot help but enjoy their frantic interactions and anticipate their next moves to take power of the Soviet Union after Stalin. Perhaps the hilarity of the events portrayed in this movie shed a light on to how ridiculous and frightening Stalinist Russia was and what how it drove people into doing things that no one could imagine. If you are a lover of history or this period in general, this is a definite must see!
