Featured review
They pulled it off
First of all, I would like to express my admiration. Admiration for the fact that the creators managed to make a good film with a clear plot, excellent acting, pleasant pictures, high-quality and appropriate special effects, with humor and meaning. There is no vulgarity here, the swearing does not spoil the impression - it is appropriate. And this (good cinema) is in itself a huge achievement.
I was afraid that with such an abundance of stars it would simply turn out to be another skit, but no: everyone played their roles well. I would especially like to mention Efremov: I don't even remember him in a role that lasted more than a couple of minutes and without a bottle. Here, he is both a habitual tyrant, an evil genius, and a victim.
And of course the main star of the film is Epifantsev. From the very beginning I didn't like the fact that he would play Babylen, but he is so organic in this role that any objections disappear from the very first scene. He is simply perfect for the role of a young, energetic man who does not believe in anything, trying to survive in a destroyed country during the troubled times.
