A movie, may be called a classics for the genre of parody. It has a good budget, spent due to the aims of filming, not fore a sake of one's pocket, well detalized in images and dialogs, with a great idea in the final. Despite any jokes it shows the real nature of any war: somebody dies on the front line, somebody enjoys life and makes money. As well, contains a lot of satire on modern russian bohemia.

It's very hard to sum this movie up. If you think of cinema as a conscious process, then you'll find this movie quite bad: the green-screen effects suck, the acting is bad, the jokes are flat and unfunny, the story is nonexistent and could be retold in a single sentence, the musical segments are way too long. But, by trying to bring contemporary Russian culture into the Third Reich (for example, Schurenberg and Garik talking about money laundering schemes; all the office work jokes; Russian celebrities) the authors have unconsciously spawned something truly post-modern, an unaware auto-portrait of the nation.

If you are not familiar with Russian pop culture you will not get anything out of this movie besides grotesque scenes of action and bizarre dialog. In reality this movie pays a great homage to the old soviet spy movies. Especially the cult spy series "twelve moments of spring", from which it borrows most of the characters. It is also relentlessly pokes in the most satirical way at todays new Moscow corporate Russia, by presenting it in the form of the third Reich. This movie is comedy genius. Great selection of actors, with some Russian comedy heavy weights. I struggle to see how anyone non Russian would get what the movie is about. But if you watch it, don't judge it as it is not made for the Western audience.

Well. This year we have seen one more "masterpiece". Before us "has pleased" - "Samyy best film" If the beginning was still more or less further it all became worse and worse and has ended with a crazy ending. There was an impression that script writers not so strained - having decided that the spectator and it will gobble up and have actually appeared are right. Such weak film, and after all has collected already more than 8 million dollars in hire. That is we in the future will be waited by following "masterpieces" Now a little about actor's game. Anna Semenovich it is simply awful, it is impossible time to look all at its huge bust... Derevyanko too looks not the good, but nevertheless it is better, than Semenovich. Other actors also not so tried.
