a-a-d

A pleasant and warm romantic comedy... Not in the least derogatory to anyone and far less clichéd than any Meg Ryan film. Even for those who honestly and whole-heartedly hate this genre, there are much worse ways to spend an evening or a date.

I don't understand why it received such a dismal rating, and can only guess that it was either shown with a god-awful translation in some language, was mis-advertised and sold as something entirely different, or was attacked by some internet community of overly ardent activists.

Saw it, enjoyed it, found nothing wrong with it, don't regret the 1.5 hours spent. Yes, it is neither Batman, nor Titanic, nor pure art, and may not appeal to those seeking a blockbuster or something elegant and refined, but it did entertain. In my book, that means - job done.

No stupid bond-style humour. Decent depiction of Moscow, Russia (I ought to know, since I live here). Rather entertaining...

There were only two strange things to it: 1. the ending left everyone clueless as to what actually happened (although, as someone here mentioned, that might just be a lead-in into a sequel) 2. the main characters never bothered to mask themselves or even put on some sunglasses while on the streets, even when national television reported that they were wanted terrorists, and, strangely enough, no one bothered to recognize them (come to think of it, the streets of Moscow, the largest city on the continent, were, curiously enough, completely empty, except for one or two scenes) Probably nothing to call home about, unless you are fans of Moran or Reid, but there are certainly much worse ways to spend an evening. Beats James Bond movies....
