That was an excellent one.
Boring
There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
I liked the movie, and reccomend it to any Georgian viewer, it's enjoyable, not exactly Georgian classic but I would give it 7 out of 10. Anyway, there's many action sequences, humor and other enjoyable stuff. And the actors are pretty good too, but the directing is a little f**ked up.
