Odinochka

Odinochka, or Target, is a TV movie about Andrei Gromov. He was put into prison for 12 years for a crime he did not commit. The film is interesting because there are many twists and turns in the plot which keeps the audience interested. Additionally, the main characters are multifaceted and go beyond the typical "good guy bad guy" roles. I enjoyed the action scenes and the pace of the movie. Enough action was present so that I was never bored. However, the character development was still strong due to the pace of the movie. One negative comment is that I wish more of the Russian city was shown in the scenes. The shots that did show the city were extremely beautiful and could have been used more. Overall, it is a good movie to watch if you can get the right subtitles for your language.

This movie is all about seeking the truth and "professional" revenge. Harrison Ford "The Fugitive (1993)" multiplied by a hundred actions of "action" on the hero's way. It has absolutely no boring moments. The movie flows fluently, like Eminem's rhymes flow. The women are beautiful and dramatic. The men are solid,frank yet rough-tough. Also there's a true sight on the post-Soviet law enforcement agency. On the way it had operated before, and probably still operating now. Considering the actors, the decent plot, dynamics and the performance it is surprising this flick was produced as a "TV" movie. It certainly should have become a blockbuster, could have become a commercial success as well. 8 out of 10. Disregard this (TV) tag.
