From the point of view of entertainment and scale, the film is definitely worth considering in a positive aspect. That's good.
The picture itself, graphics are chic and time-consuming camera work requires respect. It gets worse. I expected such a trick from the script.
Because in the co-authors is the name - Nikita Vysotsky. And he is intelligent and competent canvas - can not be trusted in any way, due to the failure of the
(previously) projects. In order to fully plunge into the canvas of the storyline - it takes at least 50 minutes. For a two-hour movie, especially
Historically, this is negligible. Not worked out characters, not the motivation of the characters. Plenty of main and secondary images -
