A zori zdes tikhie...

I just watched this movie and I must say this is now in my top 10 war movie of all time. Such warm and in the same time, such harsh story. Actors did amazing job...masterpiece. Sincere recommendation.

Russia, May 1942. Well behind friendly lines a veteran sergeant commands a small outpost, consisting of two anti-aircraft guns. His men are a rowdy, undisciplined bunch and after one incident too many they are taken off his hands. To his surprise, the replacements are women. Soon after, the Germans send a team of crack saboteurs into the area to blow up a vital railway link. The only thing standing between them and completing their mission is the sergeant and his small inexperienced team.

Great war drama. Militarily plausible and very accurate with some good action sequences. Some smaller details are surprisingly well done: meticulous things which make the whole thing so much more believable.

Highly engaging too, as we see the backstories of the main characters. Also shows the sacrifices made by the combatants, their families and communities in order to win the war.

Because of this engagement, it is quite emotional at times.

A great war drama, one definitely worth watching.

Most of the time, women play supportive roles such as nurses, secretaries, etc. however, during World War II, many women in Russia where enlisted in combat. This movie shows their courage and their sacrifice in fighting Nazi. Definitely worth watching.

An Incredible story of incredible bravery and courage which connects the audience with the story lines of 5 ordinary girls and their extraordinary lives and true heroism. The girls who committed their live to saving thousands of others, sacrificing their lives during the horrible war. The film is set in the beautiful part of Russia - Korelia and is based on a novel of a true story. Although it is a newly-made remake of the Soviet classics, it tastefully combines great actors, beautiful scenery and thrilling and saddening story, creating a true masterpiece. A film which must be seen by each and everyone, as it is a truly inspirational and motivational story, which will not leave anyone untouched!

Very good remake of old classic Soviet film. This is very humane and shows women drawn into war, who just want to live normal lives. You fell the horrors of war on a personal level and so the war feels even more horrible than in the big action movies, with large mass scenes and special effects. Here there are just women trying to fight for their country and survive. Very beautiful actresses.
