Featured review
Major Grom: Plague Doctor: Missing, something
Plot
Supercop Grom fights crime in St. Petersburg - an uphill battle. A vigilante starts killing the powerful, who escaped justice.
Cast
Unfamiliar with anybody involved, or the source material.
Verdict
I'm not familiar with Major Grom in the slightest and only wound up watching this as it was recommended to me.
Upon learning it was a Russian superhero movie my guard went up, I was burned before with 2017's The Guardians which I had very hopes for but turned out to be remarkably terrible.
I went in with concerns and though certainly better made and more stylish than The Guardians it still falls short as though not a bad film it's all just so very, expected. It's predictable, it's generic, it's a wish-wash mess of things we see frequently.
Grom himself is an unlikable character, the supporting characters are overdone stereotypes and the passable villain couldn't make up for that.
The plot itself, I quite liked. But would you have enjoyed Lord of the Rings as much if the characters were as annoying as The Walking Dead and the lead was Morbius?
Several shades of meh.
Rants
I'm shortly going to do my top 10 best Russian films and I fear it'll be terrible, a list of poor movies because I simply haven't seen anything Russian that I really liked. I hope I'm proven wrong, but let's see. Curious, go check it out on my profile.
Breakdown
Has a certain charm Tries to be too "Hollywood" Unengaging Weak characters.
