Decent SciFi

Quite a decent SciFi. The effects are absolutely top notch! Seriously, Russia needs to make more movies like this and also distribute them in English. On the other hand, the story is a bit weak and if this is how Russians behave in real life, then maybe the western narrative of "aggressive Russia" is not that false.

Attrazione mancata

Beautiful special effects and original alien design; It's a shame, because the idiocy of the plot (young Russians acting as dumb) makes it a wasteful opportunity to develop a good sci-fi movie. Lately, Russia has given sample on how to compete with Hollywood (see Guardians), but the difference between making a good movie and a bad one are always the same: a strong story with new ideas.

Boring and kind of stupid.

I've just finished watching the movie, and, as a Sci-Fi buff I must say it bored me to death. Please don't compare this to District 9 or Independence Day, or Alien or whatever, it deserves it's low rating. From start to end you can see it's an ambitious project, but it fails in all aspects, no action, no deep psychological meaning, not even one great moment to remember. It's all so-so from start to end, no character development and the ending absolutely anti-climactic. I couldn't care less about the protagonists life in the end, pretty much says it all.

Wonderful Sci-fi with Terrible Dubs

If you can get past the terrible English dubs of the main cast - don't ask me why the tertiary characters were good and they skimped on the main cast - this is a beautiful sci-fi gem.

You can see the quality of acting behind the dubs. The story is good. The visuals were superb.

I wish Amazon had it in the original Russian with English subs.

Flaws could've easily been avoided

It's a shame that a seasoned writer didn't proofread the screenplay to fix the many plot and technical issues. The editing has to be one of the worst I've seen. The directing was sub-par. The English dubbing was decent, and the cinematography and visuals were stunning. Acting was actually not bad. My generous 7/10 could've and should've easily been a 9/10. Such a shame.
