Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

This is a truly awful film, that has to be said, but somehow they've put so much energy into the special effects that it becomes sort of compelling, in the sense you want to see how bad it can get. The plot is a very basic, juvenile fantasy of good and evil. In this case evil in corrupt politicians who are run by evil forces from another dimension opposed by the good guys, a joint effort of a rebellious vigilante group, a lone wolf special ops agent and som white magic types that look like they may have escaped from a Canadian spin-off of Lord of the Rings together with the cheesy green screen backgrounds. The overall effect is rather as if you would start off with a Turkish soap opera, add some Transporter, a dash of The Matrix, some snatches from Counterstrike. It has a certain entertainment value if you don't have to pay for it.

As much as I hate to say it this seems to be Russia's response to "The Matrix", an awe-inspiring orgiastic extravaganza with revelatory fight scenes and a twist on what is reality. This version of Neo is a special operative Ivakin (Andrey Chubchenko), who in the opening scene tumbles from a plane through forest coverage and miraculously survives. From then on we get to meet Georgiy Kurylo (Aleksandr Baluev), a political figure with dark unclear plans (left unclear even after the end credits). Enter guns, hot chicks, fast cars, big blasts and a lot of meaningless filler.A movie with such visual pizazz, but lacking any constructive build to punch home a semblance of coherency. Instead viewers are overladen with imagery, that is supposed to somehow supplant a story. The other extreme of American blockbusters, which feel the need to disclose every single detail, this pic goes to lengths to avoid explaining anything. The characters remain empty shells, which lack any emotional pull. It is essentially nothing more than a random sequence of extremely well-conceived, inpenetrable and imaginative set pieces and/or VFX, barely guled together by a convoluted and unfocused story, which does it's best to create an alienating experience.By the end you don't really care about the story, what happens to our heroes or where this will take us in future outings. What's worse you stop even admiring the view.

Great action and wonderful effects get lost in a convoluted story about a secret group of hooded people over seeing the balance and the time shifters they use to control events... or something.It doesn't take long before you realize that there is nothing that makes sense to the plot-- or rather nothing makes sense on screen since it's clear that this made sense to someone at some time- say in the source novel. The trouble is any sense of a plot is only that a sense. The film really doesn't make any but the most basic of sense- these are the good guys and those are the bad guys and these weird things happen. It's a nice idea but ultimately it all gets very boring really fast.avoid this one.

This is a good action packed science fiction movie. Great action sequences, good story and fun to watch. The main character is also of the movie Zvezda (a action war movie, which is also very good).Some of the story i didn't understand(so maybe it gets an 8 after all) because i got no good English subtitles. The acting is good, and the visuals are fantastic. Just see the trailer and you know what i mean. This visual artist did also worked on movies like Night Watch and Day Watch.Overall a good movie to see, and for the sci-fi fans a must see! I look forward to see the sequel!The Dutchman has spoken ;)
