The Command

Great movie, I watched it in Russian for the full immersion (hehe). Mathias is doing a fantastic job. And the chanting, omg

This movie is worth a watch. It seems as though events in the sub were written by the main character on paper along w a letter to his wife. How accurate the events are, idk. How much additional drama was added, idk. It was very anticlimactic and feels almost as a script that doesn’t like the Russian leaders - maybe that’s true to life idk. In the end, it is a good story and while it could have been a bit more, it feels like it mostly faithfully told the story of the Kursk.

Das Boot Anus (i.e. kicks ass!)

Not pro-Russian, but you can't stop to think this is propaganda in many ways.

excellent and balanced

It's inserting some unknown drama while, as far as I can remember, omitting some internationaly agreed on facts. But, it does bring a humanized perspective on a politically sanitized rescue effort from former Cold War adversaries.

Discreet but interesting blockbuster based on a true tragedy, and directed by Danish director Thomas Vinterberg ahead of his award-winning "Another Round". Although it is adapted from the novel "A Time to Die", the work is a historical reconstruction faithful to the events, not at all sensationalistic but very respectful towards the victims and relatives. Thanks to a solid and accurate staging, the screenplay highlights how the Kursk tragedy was the result of a series of wrong choices that jeopardized the coordination of rescue operations: a human and national defeat generated by setbacks and slowness, but above all by impasse and the deadlock of the governmental/bureaucratic machine. Overall it is a dramatic, taut, touching film which, while lacking a greater aesthetic and narrative vigor, as well as a greater degree of involvement, knows how to move effectively within the limits of the conventions between civil commitment, political denunciation, spectacular sequences and introspection psychological. Imperfect perhaps, but painful and necessary for the collective memory.

This movie is much better than these reviews indicate. Very well done. Typical responses from governments involved in the business of war. Nothing new here. But a very well done movie that has one shaking one's head over and over at the absurbity of the human species.

An absolutely enjoyable well paced film about one of the biggest submarine disasters in Russian history.

I honestly liked this video, because it helped me understand the story behind the submarine disaster, I understand it may not be the best movie, but I got to understand it more and demonstrates aspects of Russian life particularly between the general population and the Military High Command who still have a Cold War mindset. Overall i thought it was good.
