Firstly, I'm a military movie buff and don't care about politics if the film is done correctly.

Seeing the low review score for this, I felt that I needed to watch it and give it a fair shake.

Each country produces their own propaganda movies & that is to be expected. After watching all of the pro-Ukrainian movies, I wanted to see one from the Russian viewpoint and this movie delivered that.

For the movie, I was only able to locate a very rough copy, so I can't comment on the video quality.

The acting is fine and anyone who had seen the actual "real" videos on LiveLeak coming out of the Ukraine from 2014 will be familiar with some of the subject matter.

It's totally pro-Russian (as expected) with some Holocaust vibes thrown in and of course anyone pro-Ukrainian will object to and downvote it.

As with any conflict/war, atrocities are committed by both sides; no one comes out completely clean and no one will ever know the truth, except those who were there.

Overall, it's a decent film and worth a watch, if you can find it.
