Siberia

This film can only be described as a badly executed porn film. The acting is awful. The plot has more holes in it than a strippers fishnet tights and for the first time ever I was rooting for Keanu to get his ass kicked. Please, for the love of god, do not waste your time watching this film.

One of the stupidest movies I've ever seen, the plot doesn't make sense and the characters have no depth. Acting is cringe. Storyline is disjointed. Bad all around.

I hate anticipating a film based on the trailer, and then getting a totally different experience when watching the film. The movie is nothing like the trailer portrays it. The plot is never flushed out, characters aren't developed, tons of loose ends throughout the film, and an awful ending. There were some things that kept me intrigued enough to stick with it to the end, but then I was thoroughly disappointed, as the story really never went anywhere.

The screenplay destroyed any potential this film may have had.

The story is absolutely useless and unnecessary from start to midpoint. The remainder of the scenes where convoluted (especially the ending) and so dragged out - especially the lame sex scenes.

I had to fast forward most of the long scenes as I was losing my interest and patience. What were the writers thinking? A 5th grader could have written this better.

This film suffered an identity crisis; what is soft porn? what is a romance? was it a thriller? was it spy film? There was certainly no action or suspense. There where so many plot issues and more holes than in Swiss cheese.

The cinematography was the main highlight, then the acting, and finally the directing was fairly decent, although the director should have demanded this film be edited down - especially the dragged out useless scenes to perhaps a short film. 104 mins was waaay too long for the pacing that was so ridiculously slow. The score was also annoying.

As a huge fan of KR, this was a big disappointment and he should have passed on this one. A 3/10 from me only for the very few positive traits.

This film tells the story of an American man who goes to Russia for a deal of blue diamonds.

The film starts off moderately good, but five minutes later it becomes horrendous. It becomes a romantic film, but there is no chemistry at all. They two characters do not seem attracted to each other, and their romance is contrived and unconvincing. After fifty minutes of romance, finally we get to see diamond related scenes again. Yet, these diamond scenes are just more excuses to have sex scenes. It just becomes quite ridiculous. The pace is slow, the story is implausible and the film just has no thrill or engagement. It is a plain bore, and does not captivate me at all. Frankly, it is quite a disappointing film.
