Podslushano v Rybinske

The script. Although the main character's crime prediction feature is not original, we do not compare the series with the Tom Cruise movie, but it is presented not as something fantastic, but as a consequence of an illness.

The detective component of finding the killer doesn't sparkle with mysteries and unexpected twists, but it doesn't matter and it's very easy to explain.

Characters. One is more beautiful than the other. If there are no questions for the main character, because the actor is wonderful, in comedic and dramatic roles, and what other characters have questions? Not at all. Everyone's playing it right. Although the series is a comedy, the actors were nevertheless selected from a wide variety. Everyone is coping with the task.

"Podslushano v Rybinske" attempts to blend a provincial crime drama with supernatural elements, but the result is a convoluted and ultimately uninspired story. The premise of a journalist receiving psychic visions to solve murders is a well-worn trope, and this series-turned-film-project adds nothing new to the formula. The protagonist, Yura, is a frustratingly passive character, more a victim of the plot than an active participant in it. The narrative meanders aimlessly, introducing plot points that are either quickly forgotten or resolved with a jarring lack of suspense. While the cast, including Timofey Tribuntsev, gives competent performances, they are let down by a script that prioritizes convoluted mystery over genuine character development. The film's tone is a mishmash of grim thriller and quirky small-town dramedy, never settling on a consistent identity. It's a tedious watch that fails to deliver on the promise of its intriguing setup.

Is it worth watching? No, it's a frustratingly generic and poorly structured film that is best left unwatched.
