Furious

The plot is fairly generic and the characters are essentially undeveloped. It's a movie where you know what to expect heading into it. My only issue was the voice overs. Half of the time a womans voice was for men, and would carry over to surrounding men in passing comments. It made much of the dialogue very confusing to track. This was on Prime, so possibly some versions are subtitled with the original audio (which would be preferable).

First of all I could say that film is the mix 300 spartians and Russian movie The Horde. It is absolutely fantasy about East Europe of 13 century on historical base of legendary Russian warrior Kolowrat who had followed by enemy and battled against mongolians army one-by-one when his city was destroy. Advantages: Great music (System of Down), good and amazing clothing looks nice and unordinary...something middle between Chinese,japanise ang mongolian traditionary clothing, and a little bit of humour

Disadvantages: strange and illogic scenario, strange battle scenes, actors look as modern people and speaks in modern language

For me it was more interesting to watch if to compare 300 spartianses but it is not a great job..

Bloody hell, the visuals are stunning!! This Russian action adventure drama is beautifully filmed, with incredible visuals and photography, and an awesome score to accompany it.

I enjoyed the characters and the survival element of the film. Ilya Malakov did a fantastic job as Kolovrat, a young man who believes he is 13 again every time he wakes up - due to a head injury when he was just 13. All the characters were likable, and the actors were really good. I felt their pain, agony, joy, defeat and determination. This was wonderful!

I enjoyed this film about an amnesic soldier hell bent on revenge. It gets a 7 star rating from me mostly because the english translation was broken and it hindered my ability to understand all that was taking place. Even with that barrier, I still understood most of what was going on and I liked what I was seeing. One thing that really helped out was how beautiful some of the camera and CGI work was. I'm glad I checked it out.

I would love to watch a great film based in an Old East Slavic text such as The Tale of the Destruction of Riazan, about the legend of bogatyr Evpaty Kolovrat and the siege of the city of Ryazan, in Rus', by the Mongols in 1237. Also, I did like the costumes and the references to Slavic culture in this Russian production. Unfortunately, there are no more qualities. The film is cheesy and kitsch since the beginning, with so many bad aestetic choices: musical score, special effects, viceogame-like camera moves, 360° overstylized fight scenes with slow motion alternating with accelerating speed... There is also a strong Orientalist flavour, and it is impossible not to make a parallel with the graphic novel-based flick 300, both for the subject and for the portrayal of the huge exotic (either effeminate or wicked-eyed) expansionist enemy empire from the East.
