Blackout

This movie is by far no masterpiece, but I was still intrigued and entertained almost all the way through. Perhaps it's partially because I am allergic to the American action movies of today, which are all just plastic, empty, uncreative, gradually deteriorating, incestuous clones of one another and this Russian film offers slightly different solutions, visually and storywise. The dialogue is pretty bad at times (the English dub I watched because I couldn't get my hands on the original probably made it 50% worse) and the ending is very disappointing storywise but visually it's a cool movie, very athmospheric, great scenery, great action scenes. I know it's not a very high bar, but all in all it's still better than anything coming out of the US.

Would I recommend it? Yeah. If you don't expect greatness, you'll have a good time.

Comparable with Hollywood. I really enjoyed watching, the acting is great, story pretty thrilling. The special effects are definitely great. I wonder why this series has only 6,1

A Russian end of the world movie that is as good as any out of Hollywood. Good acting, fairly good effects, and a decent story. The action scenes are very good, and at 2 hours, doesn't drag.

Worth watching, but it is in Russian, so subtitles will be required for non-speakers.

Much of what previous reviewers have written is accurate. The movie is a bit too long and some good editing would have improved it overall. The acting is ok, the special effects are fine, and the dialog is ok. Top marks for originality. I liked that best. It is better than much of the crap coming out of Hollywood. I think a an excellent director could copy this movie and make a great Sci-Fi flick by improving the dialog, using better actors, and having better drama direction. Overall a nice movie from Russia.

It's cheesy but commits to its approach and is good fun all the way through. It did a better job ending it than many action sci-fi movies. Well worth a watch!

It's not Blade Runner, but it doesn't think it is.

Sounds great on your home theater. Loud and full of battles.
