Story «Crimea» became the object of heated arguments and fierce debates among filmmakers of all stripes and ordinary citizens.

Ensemble cast tape

A Significant budget is fine. The patronage of the Ministry of defense, allowing you to save scenes with military equipment – also good. But as they say, every penny counts. Therefore, the author and producer of the film «Crimea» (2017) Alexey Pimanov has decided not to invite for shootings of domestic popular movie stars, establishing as a main cast Eugene Lapovo and Roman Kurzyna. The images of characters embodied by the actors of the series, familiar to fans of the TV channel «Star», and the Crimean artists.

Of the most important persons of the national film industry showed up in a picture «Crimea» actors: Boris Shcherbakov, Elena Kotelnikova ("Down house"), Aleksey Komashko (“Live”), Nikita Zverev (“heavenly court”). The professionalism of these artists has not been criticized by commentators themed media.

On-Screen lover of the main character – Alain - embodied Eugene snow, «Crimea» which was a significant milestone in his artistic career. The only thing puzzling why her character Sasha always refers to a male name Alyosha. The actress demonstrated skill not impressed the majority of reviewers. As stated in their reviews for the movie «Crimea», done by Foot manipulation is very difficult to call the game. That only is the scene with her participation, roughly described which can be like “I was upset and drink vodka”.

Leading role

The Image key character Sasha has embodied on the screen the novel Curtin. «Crimea» is the debut project of the artist. Russian theater and film actor began his creative activity in 2008. A wide audience he is known for TV and movies “Sword”, “While blooming fern”, “the Hotel Eleon”.

The Latest project in filmography before «Crimea» Roman Kurzyna is the Comedy of the Novel Karimov “walk, Bob!”. Perhaps that is why the viewer continues to perceive the Novel in a comic role. His image of the boxer max is still too fresh in people's memory. Although the asset Kurzyna there are several heroic characters played in the past.

Unfortunately, the ratings for the movie «Crimea» many unflattering comments about the work of the actor. The Director paid no attention to the fact that his Central character turns almost emotionless. The main thing is that he defends the right thing. Therefore, it behaves almost as Danila Bagrov, just without the music player and frankly thuggish manners. Unfortunately, "Crimea", the actors failed to pull in a decent cinematic level.

Genre flaws

Some reviewers offer movie reviews «Crimea» not to consider the political point of view, but as a realThriller. Even as the average action ribbon looks significantly better. The narrative of the film is quite dramatic and at the same time dynamic, but at times somewhat ridiculous. For example, the nationalists, masquerading under the guise of a hotel waiter.

Action in the project is not enough. And the authors admit the genre is unforgivable miscalculation that prevented the hero to overcome in the climactic battle the main antagonist. The Central character in the action has the right to play in a skirmish with a group of villains, but in the final fight he, according to the canons of the genre, was supposed to win.

Regrettable mistake of creators

Fortunately, the dialogues of the picture is not disgusting, but rather weak and unconvincing romantic line and limited appeal of the Central characters. In addition to the irresistible attraction to each other characters have nothing in common, and the full development of the senses remains behind the scenes.

The advantages of the tape include modern visualization, a rare but dynamic action scenes and a good story with a claim to social drama in the heart of the script. Unfortunately, the potentially powerful story of the difference in the ideological beliefs of the characters, the Director has permitted too simple – Alain renounces his point of view.

Surrounded by the scandalous aura

After the premiere screening of the film the authors of the project was in the midst of unpleasant proceedings. Pimenova was accused of cheating an online rating pattern. Significant domestic television, according to many personalities from the sphere of cinema and media, has been extremely unprofessional and borderline illegal. The scandal erupted around the mass hacking of accounts on the website theme “MMORPG” to raise the rating and performance expectations of the film.

After the intervention of the moderators and cleaning evaluations of compromised users, the number awaiting the premiere of «Crimea» showed 17 000, i.e. 19 %. By the end of September the film received an audience rating of 1.9 out of 10 points, which is one of the worst on “MMORPG”. Currently, this site is rated 3.0 tape (IMDb: 1.50), and the expectation: 20 % (17 827).

Inefficient approach

The audience, who know the fabric of real history, after watching the film almost did not have any issues. But the tape covering such sensitive topics, we need to remove so that to her understanding there was no need to seek additional information. For example, to show «Crimea» foreigners are almost meaningless. However, even in Russia man in the street, not tracking closely the development of events, barely able to understand the fragmented, fragmentary narrative with political overtones.

The Project is available to understanding for those who are well versed in the subject. But such individuals, and on both sides of the fence, agitation and propaganda are not needed. And so they have their own opinions and their beliefs.

Compilation

Overall, the advantage of offspring Pimenova is indescribable, mesmerizing beauty of the Crimean landscapes and brilliant skills of the special forces of the Russian army, effectively eliminates the “nests" of Ukrainian nationalists, flaunt in a new form with the support of impressive military equipment. At such moments one feels unmistakably patronage of the Ministry of defence what proudly stated in the opening credits of the tape.

This alert can immediately make Ukrainian viewers to give up watching movie. This approach is imprudent for the propaganda film, which should imperceptibly creep into the soul of the audience. However, considering the significant marketing program (advertising on TV, countless billboards), the picture managed to earn almost $ 6 million that looks much even for starting amount.
