The Blackout

Comparable with Hollywood. I really enjoyed watching, the acting is great, story pretty thrilling. The special effects are definitely great. I wonder why this series has only 6,1

A Russian end of the world movie that is as good as any out of Hollywood. Good acting, fairly good effects, and a decent story. The action scenes are very good, and at 2 hours, doesn't drag.

Worth watching, but it is in Russian, so subtitles will be required for non-speakers.

It's cheesy but commits to its approach and is good fun all the way through. It did a better job ending it than many action sci-fi movies. Well worth a watch!

It's not Blade Runner, but it doesn't think it is.

Sounds great on your home theater. Loud and full of battles.

Much of what previous reviewers have written is accurate. The movie is a bit too long and some good editing would have improved it overall. The acting is ok, the special effects are fine, and the dialog is ok. Top marks for originality. I liked that best. It is better than much of the crap coming out of Hollywood. I think a an excellent director could copy this movie and make a great Sci-Fi flick by improving the dialog, using better actors, and having better drama direction. Overall a nice movie from Russia.

First of all, it kept me entertained from start to finish. The pace of it (story) and the visuals were there. I'd say, the camera work was well above par, astounding even, and the CGI works were also outstanding, up there with the 200 million dollars Hollywood blockbusters. That said, the character development was poor. There were some real joy in waiting character-wise that never happened. A waste. There was also too much killing, unnecessarily. But the story was good, believable and almost unique, compared with recent movies.
