Major Grom: The Game is a Russian action flick directed by Oleg Trofim. It's another full-length movie inspired by BUBBLE Comics' Major Grom series and serves as a direct sequel to 2021's Major Grom: Plague Doctor.
A year has gone by since Major Grom took down the Plague Doctor. St. Petersburg is back on its feet, Sergey Razumovsky is in a psychiatric hospital, and Igor Grom has become the city's hero. Life is pretty sweet for Grom: he's a local celebrity, teaming up with his buddy Dima Dubin to catch bad guys during the day, and enjoying nights out at the bar with friends-or cozying up with his gorgeous girlfriend, journalist Yulia Pchelkina.
But this peaceful vibe doesn't last. Lieutenant General Maria Arkhipova (Olga Sutulova) comes in from Moscow with plans to shake up the Saint Petersburg police, aiming to swap out the staff for high-tech security drones, thanks to international arms dealer August van der Holt (Matvey Lykov). To top it off, a mysterious new terrorist known as The Ghost shows up in the city, turning everything upside down!
The cinematography is solid, and the fight scenes are well choreographed, but the film drags on a bit. At times, the pacing falters, making it feel like we're starting over. Honestly, one watch was more than enough!

4 months of waiting and the film was watched.
More characters, more timing, more screenwriters and more...
It's very difficult not to break up and start praising all parts of the film.
To begin with, the presence of people without acting education in the cinema is cool!
Secondly, the film has 6 screenwriters (like TV series for 100+ episodes), only they most likely sat in a room and ****** each other instead of just taking the original and adapting it to the cinema.
Although why is this necessary if you can add memes (literally, the characters in the film talk with memes that are from 4 to 10 if not more years old)
Well, it was and it was. What's to mumble?
So if a plot or revealed characters were attached to these jokes. At least one? Please?!
No. Go eat *****, dear viewer.
Almost 3 hours are not enough for the film to give at least something interesting.
It is clear that the film is trying to squeeze something out of itself, but this one looks like a set of blanks molded into one big pile at the end.
And in general, somewhere in the middle of the film, I caught myself thinking that the film looks torn. It's rare for me and it's not good.
You can also praise it. There are few graphics in the film and it is good. The budget just went for it. And in general, the film looks fast and not too boring.
But, *****, 2.5 hours. I will name at least 30 films that run longer and are more interesting to watch.
In short, incompetent people tried not to ****themselves 2 times. ****** up the first time in covid, ****** up now. It's amazing that even without competition, no one needs this *****. Secondary garbage. Secondary from secondary. Garbage.

I am a devout admirer of the Grom universe, and hearing that the third film was finally coming out was such a pleasant surprise. Tikhon's portrayal of Grom is very dear to me; it is always wonderful.
In this film, the original story continues, becoming darker and more somber while also providing long-awaited answers.
At nearly three hours long, I'm glad I had the chance to watch it in the cinema for the first time. It made for a great cinematic experience. Since then, I've watched it twice more via streaming services.
Call me biased, but there's something truly special about this franchise-it has a soul, at least to me. The depth and authenticity it carries make it stand out in a way that resonates deeply.

The movie is great. I've watched it three times and will go a fourth time. I am glad that Russian cinema is only gaining momentum and delights us with such good films as "Major Thunder. The Game." I don't understand people who give bad ratings to such a film masterpiece. The cast, acting, plot, special effects are all top notch. Bubble produces the best comics and movies. Such a wonderful film should be seen by more people around the world. Progress compared to "Plague Doctor" is felt immediately. The cinematic universe has truly reached a new level. I look forward to the continuation of films and comics. Love Bubble and you will be happy!
Nice film! Good characters, plot twists are great. The amount of jokes is huge, but you will not forget that it is an action movie because of the structure of storyline. My eyes were so chilled about the performance, scenery, the color correction. It is not a comic book plot, it is better actually. Dima Dubin has got such an uplifting development in this part, I was very excited about every minute of seeing him on the screen.
You sometimes can miss the point about the Holt (especially if not being a fan), but I really can forgive such cons because the pursuit for the screen time can be very intensive when we are talking about Grom universe, no excuses. I am very glad to know about this sequel and looking forward to see the new ones.
