It is a very decent movie/documentary. Void of unnecessary drama. Interesting tale, and one can relate to the story. There's a feel good tinge to it. There isn't the usual unnecessary gore associated with films of this genre. The visual effects were quite good too, sound could do with some help. Predictable ending but its one of those flicks you keep on watching though you know how it ends. Its nice to see the portrayal of the antagonists in a more subtle yet compelling light.I watched it in Russian which I do not understand, but was still worth my time. Enjoyed it, but will not watch it more than twice. I recommend it.

Wow. What a fantastic movie!

I don't remember when was the last time that some movie kept me on the edge of my seat so much, and when I cheered so passionately for a happy ending. Every part is in its place here, from the realistic depiction of the Taliban, the Russians, the war situation, just about everything... including scenes charged with emotions. I am normally a big fan of Hollywood films, but it seems that every Hollywood director should watch "Kandagar" several times and understand how characters are built that the viewer can identify with. The war scenes are also superbly shot. Bravo!

the title could be the entire review content. because "Kandagar" is brilliant example of precise realism, impressive atmosphere, importance to each detail, admirable way to build the tension, smart made of dialogues and the science to use the viewer as part of a story. it is a story of survive. like many others. but unique. not only for the status of real case but for the high art to translate it on the screen with wisdom. and this impose it as one of the extraordinary stories. because, against many American films about similar theme, this movie reflects a coherent and admirable story. in cold colors. with impeccable art.
