Horror story

The attempt to interpret life of the Russian writer Gogol paying attention to clerk's adventures in Russia, central Ukraine.

The plot is interesting, full of suspense related to mysterious and mystic murders.

The episodes of the film are related to jumps in time and links to dreams of the film's main hero.

Many humorous episodes related to Russian and Ukrainian lifestyle of the 19th century.

Slightly above average

The genre of the movie can be defined as horror with detective elements. On the whole, it looks easy enough. I was personally stressed by the inserts with Gogol's visions, they were not always to the point, and sometimes confused the plot and were boring. Toward the movie's end, you may think "What's going on here at all?". Some scenes are written by the sick imagination of the scriptwriter, which is just made to please the viewer allegedly with beautiful effects. The degree of nonsense is at a high bar in this movie.

You can watch it for fans of Slavic literature or as a simple horror movie. But it is better to find something more interesting.

Well,

I'm gonna be honest by saying that the subtitles for this film were difficult to understand. However, I watched it anyway, making my own conclusions as to what was going on and I liked it anyway.

I think the film was well made. The costuming and details, while not overly dramatic, were also well suited. From my translation of the film there is an interesting story going on here. I really hope to find better subtitles eventually.

If you enjoy period horror, you may very well like this. I'd tell you to check it out. As I mentioned, the English subtitles I found were awful but if you soldier through or have decent subtitles you'll be glad you checked it out. I'm about to check out the second film after I finish this review. Maybe that will tell you something. I'm curious as to what is going to happen next.

Something really cool

I watched this film at home, when TV3 was showing it during these winter holidays. And I REALLY liked it very much. It's not a usual film. It's a TV series shown in cinemas and, to be honest, that's a great idea. Sitting among all the people who came there to watch it too helps to create a unique atmosphere. All the actors are perfect for the roles, I liked Oleg Menshikov most of all))) I advice you to watch it))
