Three tiny episodes of 8-9 minutes, vociferously called a YouTube series, tell about the brave guy Denis Kukoyak (or Kukoyaka?) Let me ask, does the surname bow?, who is given the task of saving several top bloggers from imminent death.
A joint blogging project, shot for a narrowly focused fan audience, cannot be evaluated objectively, being an ordinary outside viewer. It is clear that Alexei Necessary did not work the worst way with the material. Here you and a very useful shooting, and not the most disgusting acting (especially Denis), and an intriguing script (although giving full swing only in the last series). All this allows you to relate to 'Last video' at least condescending.
But as an independent work, this series simply does not have weight. Those who are not familiar with these bloggers or treat them as indifferent as possible, become just sideways, as the action unfolds. No matter how charming the main character was, he alone is not able to take out a dead plot, so among all the scenes, only the final monologue about the fact that bloggers, as it turned out, are not cowards, but the most that neither is good. Very funny, very funny.
'The latest video' - an extremely narrowly focused extragenre attempt to please your favorite audience, arranging a kind of small blogger cabbage. It is recommended to watch only if you are a big fan of the personalities involved.
The desire to write a review caused not so much the film itself as reviews for it. Not on you tube, where everything is expected, but on Kinopoisk. The excitement and tears of affection for the bloggers involved in the series are understandable. Can such works be called you tube - films / series and rate them accordingly?
If I knew that the main value of the series in bloggers, I would not buy the high marks. This is similar to the estimates of modern Belarusian films or, say, Ukrainian production. You can safely discount 30 percent on those who are happy and happy to see “theirs” (as in the situation with bloggers).
The show is pretty good. The main character is a timid blogger, an “undercover agent”. A good comedy character, much inferior in coolness to his colleagues and girlfriend Clap. But, at the climax, it becomes clear who the hero is and who convulsively decides who to drain.
The script is more comic book - superficial with several accents. But good directing and acting work of D. Kukoyaki (surname bows?) and, unexpectedly, R. Popov, as well as not constipated and then well, bloggers, made the series very good. Exactly as an independent unit, without reference to the "stars of YouTube".
7 out of 10
The series "The Last YouTube Video", which the language does not turn to call a series (30 minutes somehow not serious even for a mini-series), is aimed at a certain target audience. From this curious and popular to date theme it was possible to develop a much more complete, full 'dramatism', film. For now, it looks more like a simple short film.
If we talk about acter game, then oddly enough, in this regard the guys showed themselves well, and some such as Sergey Mezentsev and Denis Kukoyaka, who was also responsible for all the humor in the "series", even well. Other vbloggers, like Lubarskaya with one line for the entire timekeeping, looked nothing more than a specially invited extra. Katya Clap, about whom I can not judge as a blogger due to my disinterest in her, here seemed to me some kind of detached, indifferent and did not show herself in the acting field, why not an ounce of interest to her increased.
It is unclear on what principle these bloggers were chosen, and others, no less, and perhaps more famous, like BadComedian or the same Max Golopolosov, surpassing the popularity of the invited YouTubers taken together, were bypassed (although if Usachev and Bazhenov to be crammed into one Russian film, there will be no one to criticize it). Or the same pranksters "Racamacafo" or "MK2show". And in the plot could add more banter and self-irony.
To evaluate the series, which is not seriously judged, along with the movies, will be somehow strange.
Continuous pranks, revelations, vlogs, reviews of a new iPhone - all this is good, we are already used to it, look with interest, voting with likes and reposts. It would seem that more is needed, but then came across 'Last video on YouTube '
The project is positioned as a mini-series and it is justified. Format 6-13 minutes. It's good, it looks easy, interesting. The main plot is that popular bloggers suddenly begin to disappear. Fairly I want to note that the idea is not new and something like that everyone has already seen, but what is important is how all this is presented to the audience: the picture is dynamic, cool soundtracks of the group ' Bread', the script is good, but, in my opinion, great comicality would have come to the face of the project.
The whole value of this mini-series lies not only in famous bloggers, but also in its implementation. Let me explain, the format is very difficult, not quite trendy, but financially costly, but damn it something new and interesting! I am sure that the project will not repeat the fate ' Police Days ' (It was a wonderful project, did not take off), will find its viewer and niche in YouTube. God!
It's nice to know that you live in a time when companies with a worldwide reputation were able to move away from the notorious: A new phone for just 69,999 and a special offer - 6 minutes of talk for free within the next 6 minutes from the best cellular operator, and began to make a really worthwhile product, as they say - quality content.
Connoisseurs are now throwing at me ' the battle of video bloggers' noting that the show turned out to be aimed at a young audience who can not always afford the advertised goods. Older people did not get the project, and the poor management of comrade Lantratov only annoyed the fanbase of bloggers. Then there were successful collaborations and musical experiments, including with the wonderful group The Hatters, where they have already managed to hook the audience over 20.
As for the promotional series, then before ' The last video on YouTube' there were several similar projects from other companies, many of which were relatively watchable. That's how I got carried away by sofa analytics, urgently for the film!
In the capital of our Motherland, popular video bloggers began to disappear and mamixes did not have time to come to their place, which means there is a sense to save them! And will help to pull the domestic videoblogosphere from the tenacious paws of bandits, a special agent undercover - none other than a representative of flour musical products - Denis Kukoyaka, who does not look like James Bond even from afar and from the back. Ruslan Usachev, Mikhail Krzyshtovsky, Lera Lubarskaya and Diogenes have already been kidnapped (what else is Diogenes, what are you, eh?). Threat to Katya Clap.
The events of the film unfold too quickly, and viewers accustomed to the classic serial timing exclaim: And that’s it?. Moreover, the series is from 6 to almost 13 minutes, which can talk about some problems in the script, which is confirmed by the key scene in the third series, when the characters have 10 minutes to choose from, but after a couple of replicas, the cherished 'peep-peep' and it returns (yes, the review without spoilers). Screenwriters are advised to watch the first 'Saw', imagine, there is about the same, and the duration of an hour and a half and look interesting!
The project is billed as a mini-series and can end without really beginning as sensational ' Police weekdays'. By the way, there is a lack of flashbacks regarding captured bloggers, will also be useful and revealing the motives of the villain, the introduction of new heroes and everything typical of the genre. Perhaps all this is filmed, although there is a feeling that the series ended with 3 episodes.
In general, the project can be called successful in terms of competently involved bloggers who managed a good acting (Need, probably, stood above them and whipped a bunch of wires from Beats by Dre shouting: Here you do not beat the blog, dear), a pleasant soundtrack, a good shooting and not a hopeless script. In any case, the loyalty of the brand will increase, and bloggers will be able to see in themselves and acting data, which was not possible to the authors ' Dislike', but there as the ship will be called, so it will be...
Bloggers aren't actors, but acting is a success. Denis played well, although there were flaws with emotions, Katya replayed (in such a situation, there should be 2 character categories at least, shock and panic, the shock was throughout the series, but there was no panic (the moment when they were chained in episode 3 is not considered panic), the writers mixed panic with shock because of which Katya walked with a non-natural face. Sergey played well, but too played according to the script, ' staging the production'. The others played well.
The drawbacks of the scenario can be considered that in the 1st series, none of the visitors to the cafe noticed the disappearance of a person (and he was taken out by force), and in the 3rd series, other hand holders should be used, because a child could cope with such (not counting the rope).
Blood spraying is not natural.
The camera work is good, the shaking is very useful. Interesting installation.
Of the things I didn’t like about the series’ length jumps, it would be better if all series had the same length, for example, 10 minutes.
As a result, this short series turned out to be better than some feature films, intrigue, unexpected turns, good quality and acting remained.
I don’t think it’s worth continuing this series, it ended well, but this team can work on a new story with a longer duration.
Unfortunately, lately, the level of Russian cinema is falling, not growing, as many people claim. There are more and more works, the quality of which seems to grow, because they learn from mistakes, but this is not the case. But there are heroes everywhere. I couldn't even imagine that 'salvation for my ailing eye' would come from the video hosting 'YouTube'. The miniseries ' The Last YouTube Video' is a new word in cinema. My words don't contain water. The first thing to note is the quality of shooting and sound. For the perception of an accurate picture, this is very important for paintings of any production. Second, actors. If I didn’t know these people, I would call them actors. Speech is clear, no playfulness, feelings are conveyed magnificently. Idea and meaning. These parts are well worked out, too. A person with a narrow world of perception will understand what the authors wanted to convey to us, because this was clearly emphasized. What’s important to me is that all the actors are enjoyable. Everything in the picture is balanced, and humor, and intelligence and quality. Even in his piggy bank personally for me added Alexey Negotiable, who was the director of this picture. I advise you to get acquainted with the work of this young and talented man. Definitely the highest score deserves this job!
I really liked this mini-series. It’s nice to see such large companies interested in collaborating with the blogosphere. Each episode brought new emotions. The idea of the film is to give the viewer a chance to guess who the man in the black hood was. The authors managed to keep the secret of the main character.
For those who decided to watch it, I give advice, first get acquainted with the main characters of the series to better penetrate the series.
Have a good time!
Short review of the series "The last video on YouTube"
In general, the series is interesting, but the actions are developing too quickly: in the previous series they tried to reveal the identity of the main antagonist (and so, it was in the series that they did not disclose it themselves), and in the next series the end of the series is already. And in general, this series is difficult to call (3 episodes, which give a total of 27 minutes). It's not serious. But this series has pluses: a good picture, kind of like a normal acting (for a budget series it is quite good). And I forgot to mention ' special effect' splashing blood could be made more realistic. I hope that in the second season, if, of course, it will be, they will take into account all their mistakes and make the series better, but for now this series will go only to the playlist & #39; Harmful Cinema & #39; Usachev.
The plot of the series is exciting, and you look forward to each series. Good acting, great soundtracks and wonderful editing. Every moment you experience together with the characters, in the series amazing plot moves. Not very short and not too long duration of the series.
Of the minuses, you can note the operator's work, in some moments, a shaking is noticeable, although sometimes it is even convenient.
Great show for everyone!
