Masterpiece cocktail of 90s life! Scenes are so dramatic and were made like visual art. This film is very close to the lever of "Oscar films" i used to go for to the cinema, and also so close to real life. I believed so many times, but of course it's not ideal. I like the scenes if life much more then philosophical talks in the car. The end was not disappointing!

Oleg Sentsov, a Ukrainian film director, was detained in Crimea in May 2014 and sentenced to 20 years in a Russian prison on charges of terrorism. Senstov was freed from a Russian penal colony after more than five years of detention.

A sad and bloody tale of the whole generation lost amid the ruins of Soviet Empire. As someone who happened to be a teenager during the 90's in Ukraine, I find the brutality of daily life and decaying environment to be very believable.

Good actors, a great director that offers no moral judgement, just a simple, easy to follow story about traumatized society.

This movie is not for everybody. If it didn't look like a documentary about my own life, I probably wouldn't have recommend it to anyone. If you meet a Ukrainian in their 40's or 50's and want to understand why they are the way they are, then watch this movie.

Great movie depicting 1990s in Ukraine and life of criminals in the country during this period. Big kudos to Oleg Sentsov for using Ukrainian language: even though this isn't historically accurate, it sounds very organic and proves Ukrainian can be used in any setting.

Fortunate to see this at the Venice Film Festival and what a crazy ride. Forced to be up and close with characters in a world that has no breaks. Felt transported and loved every minute of it. Definitely not for the faint of heart.

It's a very atmospheric movie of great quality. The time of Ukraine history after USSR, when people didn't know what to do. It is strong, harsh, but realistic and depressing movie. But it shows what we've gone through - it's all have taken place. And this scares the most. There is no romance about a bandit life, but it will make you feel something.
