This is excellent entertainment, fantastic acting, and with very realistic and creepy tension. I saw it in Russian with subtitles, and I suggest you do the same, something is always lost in dubbed translation.
I cannot fault anything with this movie. It is all good, great or excellent. If I would mention something negative it is that they just did not nail it completely. I cannot put my finger on it, perhaps its the Russian language? Or perhaps this needed a higher budget? I am not sure, but I felt like something was missing or not perfect and that is why I am giving this great movie a 9/10 ( a weak nine) and not a higher score.
This also feels very fresh, new, and interesting. This is what is needed in the realm of entertainment, more sources of it. For too long Hollywood has ruled supreme, only slightly challenged by Bollywood and a few independent movies from Europe. China had something going for a while, but I have not seen a good movie from the Chinese for many years, so this feels great and refreshing. Hopefully we get more of this from the Russians, and from the rest of the world too. We need more culture and more levels of entertainment.
I highly recommend this. Top3 best movies of the year, and this should win plenty of awards, but sadly its Russian and, yea, well, the world is how it is...
