Fees in Russia: $ 1.9 million. Very uneven and damp, but quite funny.

The film is simply terrible, there is no plot, one vulgarity, and an abomination. Zero actors. Nata I liked everything very much, the operator is especially good, and, of course, Kurtsev is inimitable in Svetlana Sveta, there is no Kurtsev there. The difficult recognition of the cat Bagel Greater senility should still try to remove. There is no plot. A bunch of, like, not the worst actors .. Surprised Khodchenkova How did she agree to star in such crap after the Vikings? Or is there not enough money? Sucks, no plot. Mat and closeup of the genitals. Arthur Arthur, there are no genitals either close-up or small. And there is practically no mat, and what is. The second difficult recognition of the cat Bagel. Why Russian cars are like that? Because each person does not give a shit about the result and their own business. One did not tighten the sound insulation, the other did not tighten the bolt. So in everything - well, look! This is all done at once.

Zhizn Vperedi Review

Company thirty-five-year-old exes classmates from the 11th "B" for some reason going to his funeral Classmate Lehi, who died drunkenness, - they were invited to these funerals Oleg (Sergei Burunov). Gynecologist Sergei Tyulenev (Egor Koreshkov) arrived at the funeral with accidentally met shortly before classmate Maria (Olga Medinich), who's an exemplary family man, but still pore dries on the school handsome bully Mishka (Paul The beam), and by Mary herself still Sealenev dries.

Misha at the funeral showed up with spectacular dark-skinned lady (Elizabeth Martinez Cardenas), with which he defiantly fucks almost in public -- apparently believing that he would all be scared Envy.

Former wimp Igor (Denis Swedes), which has become very cool and wealthy, brings to the funeral Grisha's former school storm, nicknamed Kisel (Arthur Smolyaninov). Grisha after school went to bandits, engaged in racketeering and looting, but then suddenly believed in God and managed to jump off by giving Bandit friends all he had. And now Gregory is holding meetings which encourage people to believe and give up all sorts of bad habits.

Beauty Galina (Yulia Alexandrova), who is couldn't find happiness in family life, because it doesn't understand with men, and at the same time desperately dreaming to get pregnant, to come to a meeting with his best friend Alla (Valeria Kozhevnikova) - she is pregnant with the third child from a perfectly perfect husband Vladimir (Maxim Vitorgan).

Quiet Genka (Alexander Pal) during the funeral also meets his school love - Lyudmila (Svetlana Khodchenkova). The one after school went somewhere in Europe to work model, but the funeral is not clear why after all, she showed up. European and mannered.

Of course, there will be booze and muzzle, and fuck-fuck, and remembering school grudges, and all that.

***

Of this movie from the very beginning specifically grew the ears of Jora Kryzovnikov, with one of the most successful Russian tapes of recent years - "Gorko." Here from "Bitter" - three key performers: Yulia Alexandrova (wife Jory Kryzovnikova, and he shoots her in all his films), Egor Koreshkov and Alexander Pal. In addition, the plot of "Life ahead" with the plot "Bitter" also in some aspects intersects: provincial town, universal booze (there was a wedding in "Bitter" but at its very what difference does it make where to get drunk: on wedding or funeral, right?), colorful characters from a variety of social strata, black humor and environment of some detachment Happening.

However in the film's description on "Kinopoisk" Goosebumps do not appear, although in some other bases he's listed scripted (e.g. on the site Ruskino.ru written, that the screenwriters are Jora Kryzhovnikov and Alexey Kazakov).

So Jora Kryzhovnikov is clearly had to do with the script, and why his The name of the writers has disappeared - it is unknown. There may have been some kind of conflict. between Kryzhovnikov and the director Ohanesian, but that's just an assumption.

To the same in the film shows that with the script he's in big trouble because the picture consists of several short stories, very conditionally related these funerals and meetings classmates, and for some characters storyline periodically monitors all-over paintings, and others that have been shown bright enough in his episode, then completely "drained" it looks at least strange.

When gynecologist Sergei right during the reception in a patient who has taken the appropriate posture recognized his classmate, in which, in general, still in love -- it was serious statement: I knew right away that it's going to be fun at least. (This one scene somehow recalled the episode of excellent TV series "Rake" where one of the heroines met her old acquaintance during swinger orgies.)

On went, a worthy novel with a believer bandit, played very well by Arthur Smolyaninov, and the twisted ex squish, perfectly depicted by Denis The Swede. It was pretty bright here, plus the director in this episode tried shove some broad social generalizations from the series "why do we have everything so bad" but since these sentiments Shvedova's character was born as a claim about the quality of its service prostitute - pathos somehow not very it worked, to be honest. It was funny, though. But these two characters after these novels just safely abandoned, and for good. It's a pity.

Character Paul Priebus with this dark-skinned man was clearly too grotesque, its clearly been too much, and the expected final performance at the wake of the series "You all -- shabby and greasy, and I'm handsome and poke at the chocolate bar" I didn't make an impression.

Wu Alexandra Palya with Svetlana Hodchenkova had a funny novel, but purely staged it was done rather slurred enough. Because it's kind of not very clear -- it's a horror movie, a drama or Comedy. The result was neither No, but Pal and Hodchenkova at least played it all well.

With Alexandrova's characters, Kozhevnikova, Vitorgan, and Central The Insemination Station history also It turned out to be pretty funny. Vitorgan he did a great job of being a great person. teddy husband who will do all that wife will say, but maybe a little overdone, an audition episode potential in semis at the wake was also quite cool.

What we have as a result? Very uneven movies with obvious problems and with the script, and with the staging, but I did not regret that I looked it up. It turned out to be live and at times a little crazy, and I love that. Besides, the actors are here. involved good and played them qualitatively, not sloppy.

Aftertaste the picture, in general, so-so - flaws you know in detail after viewing -- but looked not without pleasure and, you might say, Liked.

Hand out recipes from the series "If you liked the painting Bitter, I won't like it either" practice shows that similar recipes are rare.

So see for yourself - interesting you watch it or not. Negative reviews from viewers quite a lot (as in the case of Bitter), rating - very so-so. Everyone says that movies for fools and perverts. Sort of me and the cat Bublik.

I looked at it today. Well, yes, the movie is a little weak, of course, but I really liked it. Acting at an unexpectedly high level. Only the initial novel on the contrary the weakest seemed. And the rest - very, very. I guess I'm a better target audience than Exler - the age of a little younger than the characters of the film.

The tie looks interesting in general - after reading I wanted to see. So I understand that the implementation of the whole potential of the tie does not reveal, but I will look. This, by the way, is one of the main problems of Russian cinema, as for me - scenarios, or rather fundamental problems in them and terribly low level. Namely, the indifference, and the complete misunderstanding of how to conduct the plot after the tie

Akim Aslanov as you quite rightly noticed in the first paragraph, Alex writes reviews of those films that he likes and in the form that he likes. And it's also quite true that this is Alex Exler's blog. So why would you advise what reviews he should write? Alex thanks for the review, the film interested, be sure to look.

It seems to me that Akim was referring - from the point of view of the reader of your reviews, Alex, the review is not in vain read, if the result you understand that the movie is very even worth watching (the movie is good, the reviewer recommends), or the process of reading was fun (for example - the film sucked, and the reviewer coolly drove on it). It was fun about Godzilla, for example, about tentacles the same. Legendary reviews 😄. In this case, I have a feeling that 90% of the site's audience will not watch this film. You write it yourself, you're so-so. That is, and there is no special sense to watch, and the review of such material is not a masterpiece. Somehow... I think he meant it, and that's my opinion,). No pretensions to the imposition, full imho.

If a person read the review and decided that he would not watch - the review has already saved him time. It's kind of a strange discussion. One makes sense to watch, the other does not have. It's a matter of time to write a review and generally only concerns me personally.

I understand that what I'm writing now is going to sound kind of like a form of boringness, but still. You are not a professional film reviewer, but write reviews on what you like and in a form that you like. You don't chase the latest. Even if it turns out to be very bad, a professional film reviewer should write an article. You're somewhat in a different position. Although there are films that are unsuccessful, about which it is perfectly clear: yes, the article should be written. Suicide Squad. But here, apparently, you really wanted to tell your impressions of this film, something hooked you. Because this is not a sensational movie, your opinion, which must be expressed. But in the case of this film... you know, i first thought about what would be much more interesting to read reviews of handmade films. At least, which one you think you are.

I don't get it. Don't write reviews for sucks? So they are the funniest and most sought-after.

Good movies and so kind people will recommend, and I look forward to fresh reviews of the sucks, which I will not watch. But reviews sometimes succeed - the birthday of the heart. And the result usually depends on the extent of the injury Alex received from watching the tape (well, or file).
