Bada$$ Russian futuristic action film
Kicka$$ Russian Spetsnaz team in this entertaining action thriller. Things fall apart within the team just as they engage in their most dangerous mission, to explore an underground arctic research facility from which all communication has ceased. SPOILERS: They find that a virus has rendered the few survivors zombified. Is the team now infected? If so, what are their options? Plot has strong elements of a lovers' triangle between the two male leaders and the sole woman of the band, played by the famous Russian singer Slava. I would say that the plot even has the trope of what Romance readers call 'reverse harem' where a lone woman is showered with emotional support (and love by some) by an exclusive group of men as they are all thrown into close quarters by the dynamics of the mission. Testosterone flies in this film and not just on the part of the men. I saw this film on Amazon Prime's International streaming channel Russian Kino 1000, in Russian with no English subtitles. On You Tube, dubbed versions are available in French and German languages. I'm hoping a version with English subtitles or even English dubbing will go up for streaming soon.
