“They’re slow going...because they’re stupid.” I don't think we need prefaces. I just wanted to write a review, and after a little thought, I chose this one, which I have on a very specific list. All the fault here, I suppose, is the love of shockingly devalued works and banal graphomania. And maybe masochism. Even the absence of dubbing and Russian subtitles did not bother me (and did not surprise me by drops, however), because I know the English language well, and all this action looks more vivid in the original.
Well, fasten your seat belts...
For starters, subtitles and voiceovers will have to get used to. There is an MS-commentator, on it the whole voice is built. In general, everything is very incomprehensible and vague. Perhaps I will list my impressions in order, the pros or cons are inappropriate here:
1) Ugandans manage to joke in their black (literally and figuratively) humor at themselves. They manage at the level of "Anshlag", but it looks not so regrettable.
2) Computer graphics at the level of Russian elementary school in QBasic.
There is a fight in the bar and soldiers run into the field. MC-commentator for windy old school-rave music does not cease to maintain an incendiary atmosphere.
(3) The director of Ugandan “commandos” is trying to either brag or, on the contrary, make fun of himself by inserting patriotic army videos. I'm not going to judge you.
(4) The soundtrack even on the theremin would have sounded more organic than this, from adult films of the late 70s + from children's plays.
I'm not going to fake it, I've been running the movie. For some reason, I suspect I haven't lost anything. Therefore:
(6) There is a mafia in Uganda, it is not cool to negotiate with it, everyone shoots (more extensively these dialogues cannot be translated). MC does not cease to comment on what is happening as a football match.
7) If you do not shoot, they know how to Kung Fu, which is also excitedly commented on MS.
At the very end, Paint-helicopters with “inserted” pilots, terrible slaughter, and other horrors of tropical warfare come into action again.
What can I say? Promoted the country? I don't think. Is tourism okay? Especially unlikely. A strange action from our brothers in the South, it is impossible to assess it, unfortunately.
