This seemed interesting at first but it turned out to be one of the worst movies I've ever watched. Such a waste of time! How do I begin? The idea of a contemporary movie about the Romanovs fascinated me. The first ten minutes were really interesting but then the disaster began. How do you expect to get something good when you mix the 80s with old Russian history? This was a very low budget movie. The actress who was casted as Anastasia played so bad, her accent was so fake and gross! Don't forget Anastasia was a royal princess who really received education. Also, they really ruined the 80s era. What I've seen in the movie is nothing more than a cheap copy. The ending was so unrealistic. Next time when making such a film, read more about the history.
This is utterly dreadful everything from the script to the special effects to acting performances. A special mention must go to the actor playing Lenin's hair, rarely in cinema has an actor's performance been worse than that of his wig.

This is truly awful. Mix of attempts and non attempts for accents, really bad acting, graphics are horrendous especially for todays technology, The budget must have been so low... the random guy in the confusing suit looks like they slapped some felt onto his head. They didn't even try to make it the same colour. Some sound effects are incorrectly timed. Music is also too loud at times to hear people talk. I would go on but it would just cause more wasted time and I feel it's taken enough of that from me. One of those which is so bad you can't stop watching just to see if any talent kicks in.

Don't touch russian history ever again. If you're not able to respect other cultures, if you're too lazy or ignorant to study them before filming, then STOP. Just don't come near it. As a russian I feel extremely offended right now. This movie must be deleted from the existence.
This has to be the most ridiculous low budget movie ive ever seen. They would have done better to just not bother with the Russian accents since they were terrible and the actors frequently dropped the accent anyway. The costuming is terrible, it looked like the romanov princess had bought her dress at a cheap costume store. Most of the props looked cheap and gawdy which made it much less magical than what they seemed to be going for. The storyline is kind of pointless. Even as a young child i think i would have found this movie pretty lackluster. Nothing about it was actually good.

This is disgusting. Stop mocking other cultures, and learn to use google for once if you don't have normal history textbooks at schools. Russian people are depicted as barbarians and I find it offensive, as if this mocked me personally. If you can't create normal representation and respect other cultures, then please don't even try ever again and mock your own culture (oh wait, you don't have any! whoops!)

Tasteless doesn't even cover this. Regardless of your opinions of the Russian Revolution and casting disproven conspiracy theories aside, the historical fact remains that a young girl was killed alongside her family. To try to turn that into some kind saccharine feel-good family fantasy movie is very disrespectful. Why not just do an animated musical about Anne Frank if we're going to be so tasteless? Some subjects need to be treated with due gravity. This is the kind of story that should be done as a serious drama. If you want to make a family film about hope and friendship, fine, there are other tales that can be adapted, or better still, do something original. At some point whilst the idea for this was being pitched, someone should have had the lightbulb moment that this is a horrible idea. I can totally understand why people from Russia are so angered by this film.

This movie is a total disgrace to the whole cinematography world. It seems that in 2020 you can blame Russia for almost anything, but descending to the level when you literally start mocking its history and culture? This time you guys managed to cross the line. Absurd plot, bad (and I mean really bad) acting and a total disconnection from reality are just tip of the iceberg.

I never expct anything when I sarted this movie, I understand this supposed to be a fantasy and of with magical touch into it. Just from the start obviously a low budgeted and introduction was not impressive. Just when Jo Koy (a comedian from Netflix) entered the scene that's when I realized this is supposed to be a comedy. JoKoy as the villain and the acting was suposed to be bad(?) lol! It made me laugh the whole time. I guess just take it easy. A fantasy-Comedy mix- Sure! It doesn't have to be all historically appropriate.
Anastasia Romanova was 17 when she and her family were mercilessly shot. This is a terrible tragedy, that should treat with respect and historical credibility.
This is film that doesn't care about historical context. It shows that in the Russian Empire the Grand Duchess does not know the norms of behavior.
This film is a devaluation of Russian culture and a disregard for a 17-year-old girl who was ruthlessly shot.

Absolutely disgusting and disrespectful story about a poor girl who was brutally murdered with her whole family in her 17 years old. This is mockery of Russian history. Anastasia was canonized. This film disrespects our history, culture and religion. I am so enraged and frustrated by this.

I cannot believe that this actually got made. It appears to be a film version of a fan fiction written by a twelve-year-old girl, complete with self-insert character. Everyone should watch this. I was genuinely conflicted on whether to give it 1 star or 10 stars.

Hands off Russian history. It's disrespectful. You can learn about this time before creating this
I'm fascinated by the many rumors of Anastasia, and although this is fantasy, I liked where it took the legend of her, especially the reveal at the end. Lots of heart and shot beautifully by one of the greatest DPs of all time, with visual hints of his work like Back to the Future and Hook. Music is wonderful too. It's not a big budget film but doesn't have to be for this take to work. In an age where there seems to be very little indie family/kids films, I'm glad this one found a home. It felt like an 80s film to me and my family, in a good way.

Cute, I hurt in s2 for the bullying, for the true story behind the legend that for many years enchanted us, in the hope that the girl Anastácia was still alive, however in 2007 our hopes died, our magic together with the confirmation of the DNA of all family members, the movie is very silly, but very cute...

This movie genuinely confused and upset me, while I do think it's funny young children will google "what happened to Anastasia?" and learn some upsetting historical truths, but more than that is the frankly baffling choices made on every level.

This film is even worse than a high school playrole performance. The only thing good is actors' beauty. A lot of nonsence scenes, stupid situation with a ridiculous way to try to create humour and fantasy. I can't believe this film was produced in 2019 and I have watched it on Netflix in 2021. LOL, like a kid wrote this movie.

Are you really not ashamed of what you have done? Are you really not disgusted by how stereotypically you showed Russian? why? just tell me why, and most importantly why
