The Pilot. A Battle for Survival is a tense, survival war drama that doesn't shy away from the horrors of battle. If there were another war film to which I would compare this, it would be Harald Zwart's 2017 Norwegian historical drama film, The 12th Man (Norwegian: Den 12. Mann). Both present a gritty survival at all cost and live to fight another day approach to the war genre.

First up, this movie was made long before the invasion of Ukraine and anyone who thinks this was made as propaganda for that invasion needs to stop with the delusional thinking.

As usual, this WWII movie is superbly made, with great cinematography and superb aerial effects. I really wasn't sure if they had real aircraft or CGI a lot of the time, that's how good the aerial scenes are.

The leads play their roles well and the story is quite inspiring, not dissimilar to the Douglas Bader story for the British in WWII.

Well worth a viewing. Watch the Russian audio with subtitles, not a dubbed version. Why anyone watches dubbed movies is a mystery!

I found the English voice overs hard to listen to. I changed the language to Russian and added English subtitles. After making that change, I enjoyed the movie.

It seems followed the book "The stroy of a real man" which was written by Boris Polevoy.after all math it is a nice movie where war,love and courage of a real man all are included.

This was made before the invasion of Ukraine, not propaganda, not made by or for Putin. Many Americans don't understand about Russia and WWII. They sustained horrendous losses, something like 20 million, compared to 400,000 for the US. A lot of it was fought in their own country after the Nazis invaded. As a result the war is more deeply embedded in the Russian psyche. US WW-2 movies are about soldiers doing brave things far from home. Russians were defending their own cities where they had homes, family and sweethearts. Pilots were the best of the best, and in the film he flies and Ilyushin-II, an armored close ground support aircraft. It was a great plane, an entirely Soviet design, and they were proud of it. It was ideal for the kind of fighting they were doing. The film shows it getting hit hard repeatedly before it came down, and this was realistic. It was a heavily armored, very tough plane.

This russian-made movie is also known as "The Pilot". It is not only excellently produced, but in my opinion also deserves to be more popular and have a better rating. It shows very well - like the movie "Into the White" - what a struggle it must be for a pilot that is shot down and stranded in enemy territory.

And yes - as is typical for many a russian-made movie - there is a tendency to make it a "hero movie", whereby a russian soldier performs the unthinkable. But honestly said, the 'heroics' were at an acceptable level (i.e. Not annoying), whereby the viewer gets to see some pretty good acting combined with quite impressive scenery, props, vehicles...

Overall, I deem this to be one of the better russian-made movies. As such, I score it at 6.9/10, which results in an IMDb rating of 7 stars.

I believe this is based on a true story, and frankly the action sequences in the air reminded me of Dunkirk. The movie has it all and if you enjoy stories of survival, this one doesn't disappoint. Heroes are everywhere and here we have a pilot who goes the distance in fighting the good fight for his country. Man do we need more Nikolai Komlev's in the world. This isn't a propaganda movie, this is a movie! From my seat in the rear-gunner's, this is a movie that cuts to the chase and delivers the kabooms.

The 105 min runtime felt much longer with the long dragged out and unnecessary scenes. The slow pacing made it even worse. There was very little suspense, or anything that would really make you care to invest watching it. The romance part was cheesy, and the survival part kinda lame. This would've been better off as a documentary, and no more than 60 minutes long. The performances were decent and mostly convincing, but the cinematography was the standout feature, as it was excellent. It's a very generous 6/10 from me.

The plot is poor, uninteresting. There is no introduction to the film, the viewer just has to figure out for himself which period and what. Directing is poor. The effects are mediocre. German tanks are similar to cardboard boxes. A lot of time has passed since the Second World War, and the Russians still seem to be alive in that period and cannot forget. The film is poor in every sense.

Ignore the weird ppl leaving bad reviews it doesn't matter that it's a russian film they probably couldn't read anywas. I would suggest this movie I liked it some ppl just have bad taste like 45% of the reviews I saw.

Will Always will be cowardiced, frightened zealots who always choose violence over common sense and negotiations. Until the former KGBs and older line are finally dead, it won't change. Once they die out I believe things will change, because you can't hold an entire nation in the dark for long these days. Even the older citizens are clearly so brainwashed after a lifetime of lies... so this will take time. Fortunately the young Russians are fully aware of Putin and his evil ends.

In the meantime we must do whatever we can to help Ukraine keep their democracy. Putin must go first of course but he hides like a scared little rabbit so that'll be difficult. We must forget the past 20 yrs of somewhat normal relations and realize Putins losing his mind, after being given strength by Trump and is trying to fulfill his legacy and will stop for naught. Let's hope many good Russians have the courage to overthrow him. And for gods sake convict Trump a felon for the post election coup attempt so he can't run again. If we cannot do that we look like fools to the world who can't even stand up for the most basic tenets of our Constitution!

But this was a good movie. It was made before the Ukrainian war but for those of you naive enough to think it still wasn't full of propaganda are to uneducated on history to form an opinion as such.

Still it's a very decent movie. I doubt it's funding the war lol so rent it and give it a watch.

The Pilot. A Battle for Survival film disappointment. Of course, I did not expect much from Russian cinema, especially from films on World War II. We have this topic popular, the implementation is usually sad. And The Pilot was no exception. A dull film in which the main action of the feat of Alexei Maresyev was posted for 20 minutes of timing at the end of the film. I can't advise anyone about this movie.

My opinion on the best way to watch this is to switch the audio over to Russian and read the subtitles.

This film could have been made about any county's hero pilot. There was no propaganda to this story. Based on the true story of a downed Russian pilot in German territory. The hero has to battle the elements, wild animals, oh, and the German Army that's after him. He reflects deeply as he goes through all of this as many of us would do if we believed we may not make it out alive. The period elements of the time are spot on. Hard to believe that the U. S. now has a strong friendship with Germany and are at tension with Russia. I was rooting for this guy just as much as I was watching Enemy At The Gates.

Lets put Putin in the drivers seat of this one, growly gravelling fighting hero that he is. Oh yes Komrade just let mee keeel those dirrty Nazi bastards, leets make them sheet their pants haha.

Very well made, acted and CGI-ed, no problem there. I liked it up to the finale when they are all saluting the hero-pilot and then I thought of Putin in the Stadium the other day rallying patriotic support of the destruction of their "brother" Ukrainians (we love you so much we are going to blast the hell out of you to get you back) As a piece of history, well its true the Russian had to fight like hell to get Germans out of their Motherland.

Lets just say I wish Russia luck not having another Afghanistan in Ukraine. But thats where they are headed.

One of the very "best" and emotionally ground-breaking WWII war drama with "amazing" photography and visual effects, a little slow most of the time and too few airplane fight (possibly low budget and to develop the story more and push it forward).

Without any ratings field, it deserves a neat "8". Especially, the ending, real one, in memoriam of the "heroes" is well-done.

Hope Apple TV makes a big series on WWII eastern front.

Really, they have saved up a few of these to release now, I wonder why.

Propaganda of the most blatant type.

150 characters needed to point out propaganda?

A refreshingly realistic WW2 shot film, right down to the Russian "Ilyusha" (Ilyushin Il-2) ground attack warplane. The acting throughout was superb.

The ending credits to so many actual Russian WW2 pilots is a sobering and tragic reality of War.

Lest We Forget.

I have to wonder how many more War Movies will Russia release in the coming months, Just as a real war breaks out and Russia Invades the Ukraine!

I tried to watch this movie, but 30 mins in, I felt repulsed for even trying to watch it, as I couldn't help but feel this was Propaganda to help boost the Russian peoples will for Invasion of Ukraine!

Watching "The Pilot" was a pleasure, first because of the quality of the air combat scenes, very well filmed. Another highlight is the editing of the film, which streamlined a predictable story, but which catches our attention. I liked!!

I had no idea the Russians were such good, honest, upstanding people. I had the Ukrainian invasion all wrong. It's the evil Ukrainians and U. S. we should give them back Alaska.

All Soviet films should be deleted / suspended. Like all the others, they are just Russian lies. Like Soviet propaganda. All these artists do not deserve to be known in any way as the "evil west"

The movie is actually really good and I've enjoyed it. Effects are 8/10, story is a bit predictable but still really exciting and enjoyable. Shows the struggles Russians faced in Russia during the German invasion and it's focused on Russian pilot Nikolai Komlev and his survival and endurance in the hard wilderness. Watch it if you can.

I refuse to watch anything russian due to the fact they are attacking/invading Ukraine!

Ukraine is not attacking Russia! They are defending themselves!

I liked the film - it looks like there are some comments from users who did not even bother watching it and just sent a negative review simply because it is a Russian movie and it is about WWII.

I would watch it again. If someone thinks that Hollywood can make a better film about the Soviet army fighting against the German invasion - they might as weill stick to the propagandist and full of nonsense "Enemy at the Gates"...
