Featured reviews
There was some potential in this tale of four superheroes created by the Russian government during the Cold War; that have to stay hidden until needed; but the movie sadly has very very lazy writing and even poorer editing. The FX are acceptable (the last Avengers was not much better and cost 50 times more); but the characters are pure stock. Forced; unsympathetic and underwritten. Action scenes are not spectacular as they were supposed to be; and villain motivations (or goals) are not that clear.
In brief; perhaps next time with better production and writing they will make a better movie; but just one is just a curiosity.

The plot is the normal on this movies, a secret project to turn man on super soldiers is shut down and the mentor of this project finds himself with superpowers and wants to rule the world.
This movie has good ingredients to be a good movie, superheroes, fight scenes, nice girls , action, i only gave it 6 stars because sometimes to me it seems like the acting was not at the best, it didn't look natural, look mechanized , if the dialogues where more fluid then the movie would be better.
So , the Russian avengers is a good movie to see and hope it will get better on the sequel.

I don't know why people are trying to say this movie is good, because it is not. First the good parts, the cinematic, music and special effects are pretty decent. And the bad, how can I put this, the movie has no pace, the way they start the team it's laughable, "wanna join? sure". The stiff face major blonde whatever struggles to show emotions and empathy, but it just makes you laugh at her failing to do so, and the list goes on and on, the acting is really terrible.
OK, we get it, small budget, but that doesn't mean the story,editing and acting has to be so low.

It's not very good.
I wanted it to be good, I would have settled for quite good, but no.
CGI = awful (circa 1900's SyFy channel, and I'm being generous).
Story = Hm, maybe taken from a computer game released in a country ending in 'stan' and not very popular there either
Watch at your peril.
One good thing about the film is, no, sorry, I got nothing.

One good thing about the film is, no, sorry, I got nothing.
It's always great to see some practical FX, some live action makeup instead of overly used CGI, but obviously the makeup artist responsible for the baddie has never studied human anatomy before, the guys abs went down past his groin, and his face and entire body looks as if it was made of silly putty , I've never seen foam rubber or silicone look like that, a new low point for the industry. The robot drones were not bad, but the Russians sure love their tanks don't they? Tanks everywhere, everyone loves tanks! I'm not sure if any warrior on the planet would find those round swords useful, but hey, it's superheroes, right? The Invisible girl looked unmistakably Russian, as if she was wearing all the makeup from Instagram all at once, so nothing surprising there, a shame, as she didn't need to,obviously lovely enough. One thing is for sure, they are a whole lot better than the Turkish superheroes, so Marvel need not worry just yet.
Did you know
- TriviaThe movie has some parallels with various Marvel characters. Arsus being a scientist, changing into a large powerhouse, (whos pants somehow dont rip unless in full bear mode) is like Hulk. Kahn moves at the speeds of Quicksilver. When Ler covered his body in rocks he resembled The Thing. And Kseniya has a power set close to the Invisible Woman. Patriot is similar to S.H.I.E.L.D.
- GoofsBoth times when Arsus morphs into a full bear, ripping his pants, he reappears in human form having a full set of pants and boots.
- Crazy creditsIn mid-credits scene, Yelena is transported in a back of a truck by two soldiers. When they open the door, she attacks them, killing one and subduing the other, who, when asked who sent them, says: "Ferrum".
- Alternate versionsWhen the film was originally released in Germany, the dubbing was highly criticized for adding lowbrow humor. To rectify this, distributor Capelight ordered a new dubbing (which reflected the original tone of the movie) and the film was re-released (with both dubbings) on Blu-ray/DVD.
